Unclear, K091001

No
The summary describes a dental adhesive and its intended use, composition, and polymerization method. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The description focuses solely on the chemical and physical properties of the adhesive.

No
The device is an adhesive used for bonding dental materials, not to treat or cure a disease or condition in the patient.

No
The provided text describes the device as an adhesive for restorations, indicating it is a therapeutic or restorative device, not one used for diagnosis. There is no mention of it being used to detect, monitor, or identify a condition.

No

The device is a chemical composition (adhesive) that is polymerized by a light source, 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: The intended use describes the device as an adhesive for bonding dental materials (composites, cements, dentin, enamel, metal, porcelain) in direct and indirect restorations. This is a therapeutic and restorative function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details the chemical composition and polymerization method, consistent with a dental adhesive.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples from the human body (blood, tissue, etc.) to provide information about a disease, condition, or state of health.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the oral environment (tooth structure), which is where the adhesive is applied directly for treatment.
  • Intended User/Care Setting: Dental professionals in dental procedures are the intended users, consistent with a dental restorative material.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to diagnose or monitor medical conditions. This device's function is to bond materials within the mouth for restorative purposes.

Dear Mr. Larsen:

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.
