Intended Use
A dental matrix band is a non-sterile single use disposable device intended to be place around a tooth to keep filling material from bonding onto the other tooth. Matrix bands are used to form missing walls of prepared teeth. They shape and confine restorative materials to areas prepared to receive restorations.
Device Description
The Dental Matrix Band is made of medical grade stainless steel with a tin coating. The dental matrix bands are offered non-sterile single use.

No
The summary describes a simple mechanical dental device with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is described as a dental matrix band used to form walls of prepared teeth and confine restorative materials. Its function is mechanical and structural support during a dental procedure, not to treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent disease.

No
The device is described as shaping and confining restorative materials, indicating it's used during a treatment procedure rather than for diagnosing a condition. Its function is to assist in the physical restoration of a tooth, not to identify or characterize a disease or medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical object made of stainless steel with a tin coating, which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used directly on a tooth to shape and confine filling material during a dental restoration procedure. This is a mechanical function performed in vivo (within the body), not an in vitro (outside the body) test or analysis of a biological sample.
  • Device Description: The description of the device as a stainless steel band further supports its mechanical function in a dental procedure.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test or analyze biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information about a patient's health.

Therefore, the dental matrix band described is a medical device used in a dental procedure, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Vovolka:

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.

Image /page/1/Picture/10 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The logo features a stylized eagle with three lines forming its body and wings. The words "DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES • USA" are arranged in a circular pattern around the eagle.

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 (OS) 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).
