The document describes a dental liner material and its properties, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No
The device is a liner and pulp capping agent designed to protect the dental pulpal complex. It acts as a barrier and is light-cured. It is not an instrument used to diagnose, prevent, monitor, treat, or alleviate disease.
No
Explanation: The device, TheraCal LC, is described as a "liner" and "pulp capping agent" intended to "perform as a barrier and to protect the dental pulpal complex." Its function is therapeutic and protective (forming a barrier and protecting), not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "light-cured resin-based, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) filled, liner," indicating it is a physical material, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended uses are "Liner" and "Pulp capping agent." These are procedures performed directly on the patient's tooth structure, not on samples taken from the body for diagnostic purposes.
- Device Description: The description clearly states it's a "light-cured resin-based, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) filled, liner designed to perform as a barrier and to protect the dental pulpal complex." This describes a material used in a dental procedure, not a test or 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 samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition
- Using reagents or assays
- Measuring analytes
The device is a dental material used for therapeutic and protective purposes within the mouth.

Device Description
TheraCal LC is a light-cured resin-based, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) filled, liner designed to perform as a barrier and to protect the dental pulpal complex. TheraCal LC's precise alacement allows its use in all deep cavity preparations. The light-cured set permits the practitioner immediate placement and condensation of the restorative material. Its proprietary practitioner intines for a command set with a visible light curing unit while maintaining ease of formulation anows for a ochimaners and one oprietary hydrophilic resin formulation creates a stable and durable liner or base

Dear Mr. Lichtenwalner:
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.
