No
The summary describes a dental composite material, which is a passive substance, and there is no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities that would involve AI/ML.

Yes
The device is a dental restorative material intended to treat cavities, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No
The device is a restorative material, not a diagnostic one. Its purpose is to fill cavities, not to identify or diagnose conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "light-cured, resin-based, dental restorative," which 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 is to be a "dental composite restorative material intended to be used in all classes of cavities." This describes a material used directly on the patient's teeth for restoration.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this, stating it's a "light-cured, resin-based, dental restorative designed for direct placement."
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. This device is applied inside the body for a restorative purpose.

Therefore, Herculite Ultra is a medical device, but specifically a dental restorative material, not an IVD.

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.

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 Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115.
