The description focuses on the material properties and physical characteristics of a root canal filling paste, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
Well-Paste is a temporary root canal filling material and sealer, not a therapeutic device designed to treat or cure a disease.
No
Well-Paste™ is a root canal sealer used for temporary filling, not for diagnosing conditions. Its description focuses on its material properties and application as a filling material.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "temporary root canal filling material" and lists physical components like "Calcium Hydroxide and Barium Sulfate," a "syringe," "disposable tips," a "plastic holder," and a "disposable tip cap." This indicates it is a physical material and delivery system, not software.
Based on the provided information, Well-Paste™ is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that Well-Paste™ is a root canal sealer used for filling root canals within the body (in vivo).
- IVDs are used to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease. Well-Paste™ is a therapeutic device used to fill and seal root canals, not to diagnose or provide information about a patient's health status.
The description focuses on the physical properties and application of the material within the root canal, which is consistent with a medical device used for treatment, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
