The summary describes a dental fluoride varnish and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.
Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of hypersensitive teeth and sealing dentinal tubules, which are therapeutic applications.
No
Explanation: The device is intended for the "treatment of hypersensitive teeth" and "sealing the dentinal tubules," which are therapeutic or preventative uses, not diagnostic.
No
The device description is not found, but the intended use clearly describes a physical product (a fluoride treatment) applied to teeth. This is not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, VOCO Profluorid L is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended uses listed (treatment of hypersensitive teeth, sealing dentinal tubules, cavity liner) are all direct treatments applied to the patient's teeth. IVDs are used to examine specimens from the body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description: While the description is "Not Found," the intended use clearly indicates a product applied to the teeth, not a laboratory test or analysis device.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, laboratory procedures, or providing diagnostic information based on biological specimens.
Therefore, VOCO Profluorid L is a dental material used for therapeutic and protective purposes on the teeth, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
VOCO Profluorid L is intended for use as
- treatment of hypersensitive teeth,
- sealing the dentinal tubules for cavity preparations or on sensitive root surfaces cavity liner under amalgam restorations

Trade/Device Name: VOCO Profluorid L Regulation Number: 21 CFR 872.3260 Regulation Name: Cavity Varnish Regulatory Class: II Product Code: LBH Dated: September 10, 2008 Received: October 14, 2008
Dear Mr. Plaumann:
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.
