No
The summary describes a mechanical orthodontic bracket and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for orthodontic movement of natural teeth, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No
The device, "Elation MB metal reinforced plastic brackets," is indicated for "orthodontic movement of natural teeth," which is a treatment rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "metal reinforced plastic bracket," which is a physical hardware component used in orthodontics. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "orthodontic movement of natural teeth." This is a mechanical action performed directly on the patient's teeth.
  • Device Description: The device is a bracket, which is a physical component used in orthodontics.
  • 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.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) for a mechanical purpose.
