No
The provided 510(k) summary describes a dental luting cement and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

No
The device is used for adhesive luting of dental prosthetics, which is a restorative rather than therapeutic function.

No
The Bifix QM is described as being "intended for adhesive luting," which refers to its use in bonding dental prostheses, not in diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The intended use describes a dental adhesive, which is a physical material, not software.

Based on the provided information, Bifix QM is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as being used for "adhesive luting of inlays, onlays, facettes, veneers, crowns, partial crowns, pins, posts, bridges and adhesive bridges (Maryland bridges)." This is a description of a dental adhesive used for bonding dental restorations in the mouth.
  • Definition of IVD: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside the body to provide information about a person's health.

The intended use of Bifix QM clearly indicates it is used directly on the patient's teeth for bonding purposes, which is not the function of an IVD.

Dear Dr. Süs:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820): and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
