The description focuses on the material composition and physical properties of a dental filling composite, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is a dental filling composite used for direct restorations, core build-ups, and temporary splinting, which are all therapeutic interventions aimed at treating dental conditions or repairing teeth.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a "light curing dental filling composite," which is a material used for restorations and repairs, not for diagnosis. Its intended uses (e.g., direct restorations, core build-up) are all therapeutic or restorative in nature.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical dental filling composite material, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all related to direct and indirect dental restorations, core build-up, temporary splinting, and repairs. These are procedures performed directly on or in the patient's mouth for therapeutic or restorative purposes.
- Device Description: The device is described as a light-curing dental filling composite material. It's a physical material used to fill cavities and restore teeth.
- Lack of In Vitro Diagnostic Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device intended to be used in vitro (outside the body) for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit this description. It is applied in vivo (within the body) as a restorative material.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and clinical effectiveness as a dental restorative material, not on diagnostic accuracy or performance in analyzing biological specimens.
In summary, this device is a dental restorative material used directly in the patient's mouth, which is not the function of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
An improved light curing dental filling composite was developed within the scope of the project NEUN on the base of customary radical cross linking (meth)-acrylate monomers and dental glass fillers. The material is characterized by the following properties in detail:
- The material is a light curing nano hybride composite.
- The monomer matrix included is a particularly low-shrink mixture of polyether and urethane monomers preponderantly.
- A special TCD backbone monomer makes the excellent mechanical properties and the low . shrinkage possible. (TCD = tricyclodecane)
- . The composite material does not contain any Bis-GMA monomer making it toxicologically advantageous, as no Bisphenol-A can be released.
- The filler contained is a mixture of various particle size fractions of a customary, radiopaque dental . alass.
- The composite material contains non-agglomerated nano particles cross-linking to the polymer . network.
- . The material has a pasty consistency and can be applied plastically into the cavity. It is hardly sticky, packable, can be moulded, cured by blue light and polished with common systems.
- . Handling is comparable with customary light curing dental composite materials. For deeper cavities layering technique is recommended.
In its unpolymerized state, the composite material is plastically workable (pliable) similar to current products. Using a special initiator system reduced the sensitivity to ambient light. Cross-linking reaction is initiated with light curing devices (QTH, LED) customary in dental technology. Radical cross-linking of the (meth-) acrylate monomers occurs very fast, ensuring complete curing of a layer with a thickness of over 2 mm in an irradiation time of 20 seconds.
Thus, a highly cross-linked composite material results, fully complying with the mechanical requirements for a dental filling material in the Black classes I, II, III, IV and V according to the international standard EN ISO 4049.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The biological compatibility of the prototype NEUN was verified in accordance with the international standard (EN ISO 10993-1). The cured composite did not show a significant toxicological reaction. The biocompatibility of NEUN in the aforementioned indication was documented in a Biological Evaluation Report and the benefit/risk-relation has to be judged as positive.
NEUN was developed with a focus to the best competitor materials known in the dental market. A comparison with approved dental materials demonstrates the properties of NEUN is far superior properties in every detail. All important properties were proved with in-vitro tests and show similar or better results in comparison with registered and commercially available products. The international standard EN ISO 4049 has defined basic properties for dental composite materials to ensure the clinical effectiveness. The specification of the new dental composite NEUN meets the requirements of the harmonized standard for dental restorative materials of all cavity classes (type 1, class 2, group 1).
Clinical evaluation was performed in accordance with MEDDEV 2.7.1. Considering the evaluated scientific data, clinical research and technical results for NEUN it is concluded that the product can be expected to exhibit the claimed technical results for NCDN in IC Sconnice and that potential undesirable clinical effects and risks seem well controlled and acceptable, when weighed against their benefits in dentistry. Therefore, a positive risks versus benefits ratio can be stated by the Expert for NEUN, provided that the product is applied in accordance with its intended use as outlined in the manufacturer's information for use. The clinical investigation report was prepared in accordance with MEDDEV 2.7.1 and followed the provisions of the corresponding clinical evaluation plan dated 05 July 2007. The risk potential of the newly developed restorative composite NEUN was proved and evaluated with a laboratory prototype and a prototype from the production. The risk analysis (according to DIN EN ISO 14971) was carried out.
