No
The summary describes a gel that works chemically, with no mention of AI/ML terms or data processing.

No
The device is a gel for relief of discomfort, not an instrument or apparatus for treating a disease or injury.

No
This device is an oral care gel for relief of discomfort from dentin sensitivity, which describes a treatment or palliative function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "Oral Care Gel," which is a physical substance, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "relief of discomfort from dentin sensitivity" by forming a layer on teeth. This is a direct application to the body for a therapeutic effect, not for examining specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
  • Mechanism of Action: The product works by forming a layer on the teeth, which is a physical/chemical interaction with the tooth surface, not an in vitro analysis of a biological sample.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

Therefore, Relief ACP Oral Care Gel falls under the category of a medical device, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Ziemba:

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.

JAN 1 0 2007

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.

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.
