Device Description
Hermes Bond 3 is classified as Resin Tooth Bonding Agent (21 C.F.R. § 872.3200) because it is a device intended to be painted on the interior of a prepared cavity of a tooth to improve retention of restorative materials. Hermes Bond 3 offers the advantages of a simplified bonding procedure, eliminating the need for a separate etching step. Thus it reduces both possible errors during application and post-operative sensitivity. Additionally, it saves the dentist valuable chair time. Hermes Bond 3 is intended to provide bonding between dentin/enamel and silorane (or oxirane) based composites. This is ensured by the formulation of Hermes Bond 3 which has especially been optimized for this purpose. Hermes Bond 3 will be available in a two-vial version, one containing the Hermes Bond 3 Primer and one containing the Hermes Bond 3 Link (Bond).

The description focuses on the chemical formulation and application process of a dental bonding agent, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No.
Hermes Bond 3 is a tooth bonding agent used to improve the retention of restorative materials, which is a structural and restorative function rather than a therapeutic one that treats or prevents a disease.

No

Explanation: The device, Hermes Bond 3, is described as a "Resin Tooth Bonding Agent" intended to improve the retention of restorative materials by bonding between dentin/enamel and composites. Its function is to facilitate a dental restoration procedure, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states that Hermes Bond 3 is a "Resin Tooth Bonding Agent" and is available in a "two-vial version" containing chemical components (Primer and Link). This indicates a physical, chemical-based product, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for bonding between dentin/enamel and composite materials within the mouth of a patient. This is a direct application to the patient's body for a therapeutic or restorative purpose.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states it's a "Resin Tooth Bonding Agent" intended to be "painted on the interior of a prepared cavity of a tooth." This is a dental restorative procedure performed on a living patient.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "Dentin/enamel of a tooth," which is part of the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not involve the analysis of such specimens.

Therefore, Hermes Bond 3 is a dental device used for direct application to a patient's tooth, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Dr. Soegiarto:

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.
