Intended Use
Benacel® Dental Dressing is intended for use as a wound dressing in extraction sites and the management of alveolar osteitis (dry socket) and may be used as a wound dressing for the temporary management of oral surgical wounds, such as operative, postoperative, donor sites, and traumatic injuries. Benacel® Dental Dressing may also be used as a wound dressing for the management and protection of oral lesions, including sores, ulcers, and injuries, such as cuts, lacerations and abrasions of the oral mucosa.
Device Description
Benacel® Dental Dressing is an absorbable wound dressing made of oxidized regenerated cellulose material. Upon contact with moist oral mucosa, the material dissolves and transforms into a gelatinous material. By applying gentle pressure at this time, the material will adhere to the wound and form a barrier, protecting the wound from further irritation and pain. Benacel® Dental Dressing is sterile packaged and supplied in a variety of configurations and sizes.

The device description and intended use focus on the material properties and physical function of the dental dressing, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes.
This device is intended to treat wounds and oral lesions, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a wound dressing for various oral conditions and injuries, functioning as a protective barrier. Its intended use focuses on treatment and management of wounds, not on diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "absorbable wound dressing made of oxidized regenerated cellulose material," which is a physical material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Benacel® Dental Dressing's Function: The description clearly states that Benacel® Dental Dressing is an absorbable wound dressing applied directly to oral wounds and lesions. It acts as a physical barrier and dissolves into a gelatinous material to protect the wound and aid in healing.
  • No Sample Analysis: There is no mention of this device analyzing any biological samples taken from the patient. Its function is entirely external and topical.

Therefore, Benacel® Dental Dressing falls under the category of a medical device used for wound management, not an in vitro diagnostic.
