The device description clearly states it is an "addition-cross-linking polyvinyl siloxane impression material," which is a physical substance used to take impressions. This is a hardware component, 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 for taking impressions of the mouth for dental procedures (inlays, crowns, bridges, etc.). This is a physical process of creating a mold, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample from the body in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description details the material properties and how it's used to create an impression. It doesn't mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility, physical properties of the material, and clinical evaluation of its performance in creating impressions. There are no studies related to diagnostic accuracy or analyzing biological markers.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is a material used to create a physical replica of a part of the body.

Device Description
The Flexitime Xtreme 2 Light Flow , Medium Flow and Heavy Tray each are addition-crosslinking polyvinyl siloxane impression materials , all delivered in 50 ml cartridges, and are part of the Flexitime Xtreme -system. The Flexitime Xtreme 2 assortment is characterised by the addition of Blackbeery-aroma and is technically characterized by a short working time of appr. 1.5 min and a short time in mouth period of min. 1.5 min.. These products, which show a shorter working time and setting time, are highly desired for single step impressions especially in combination with the double arch impression technique. The materials were developed to ensure hydrophilic characteristics for optimal impression taking in the wet surroundings of the mouth combined with good mechanical properties. The materials are based on the existing materials D 919 (Flexitime Light Flow and Flexitime Medium Flow) and Flexitime Xtreme Heavy Tray to meet the requirements of the US market.
