The summary describes a ceramic orthodontic bracket system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
No
The device is an orthodontic bracket system used to move teeth during treatment. While it aids in treatment, it is a tool for correction rather than directly treating a disease or condition in a therapeutic sense, nor does it restore or sustain life functions.
No
This device is described as an orthodontic bracket system intended to aid in the movement of teeth, which is a treatment function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "ceramic orthodontic bracket system" and a "bondable device for fixed attached orthodontics," indicating it is a physical hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "to aid in the movement of patient teeth during orthodontic treatment." This is a mechanical function performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details a physical bracket system that is bonded to teeth. It describes its physical properties and how it functions mechanically.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVDs are used outside the body to analyze biological samples. This device is used inside the mouth to physically manipulate teeth.

Device Description
The device is a ccramic orthodontic bracket which will encompass maxillary and mandibular brackets from 2nd bicuspid to 2m bicuspid. The Damon 4Clear appliance has both aesthetic and self-ligating qualities. The Damon 4Clear is designed with 1) improved open and close functionality and increased corner radius for increased patient comfort, 2) enhanced bracket placement with placement jigs and 3) improved overall bracket performance without changing treatment mechanics, with rotation and torque control similar to other Damon metal brackets. This system is a bondable device for fixed attached orthodontics.

Dear Ms. Garman:
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.

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.
