Intended Use
L.C.R." is a flowable, light-cure orthodontic adhesive intended to be used within an orthodontic, dental or pediatric dental office for the bonding of lingual retainers, creation of occlusal buildups and for the retention of thermo-plastic aligners.
Device Description
L.C.R."" is a light-cure orthodontic adhesive that is flowable and a highly filled resin in order to provide durability. These properties make it ideal for bonding lingual retainers, creating occlusal buildups and for the retention of a thermoplastic aligner. L.C.R is available in push syringe, luer-lok syringe or tips for preferences in dispensing.

Not Found

No
The summary describes a light-cure orthodontic adhesive and its physical properties and performance testing. There is no mention of AI or ML technology.

No
The device is an adhesive used for bonding in orthodontic procedures, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

The device is an adhesive used for bonding and retention, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Its intended uses (bonding retainers, creating buildups, retaining aligners) are therapeutic or corrective in nature, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "flowable, light-cure orthodontic adhesive," which is a physical material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is an "orthodontic adhesive intended to be used within an orthodontic, dental or pediatric dental office for the bonding of lingual retainers, creation of occlusal buildups and for the retention of thermo-plastic aligners." This describes a device used directly on a patient for a therapeutic or structural purpose within the mouth.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a "light-cure orthodontic adhesive" with properties suitable for bonding and creating structures in the mouth.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside the body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide diagnostic information. This device is a material used directly in the mouth for a structural and retentive purpose.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

"L.C.R. "" was tested and compared to Flowtain"" for Flexural Strength and Depth of Cure via ISO 4049:2009(E) test method. Testing resulted in similar performance between the two adhesives for both Flexural Strength and Depth of Cure.
In addition, five replicates of a Compressive Strength Test were conducted for occlusal build-up suitability. This testing was conducted to show the intended use of L.C.R. " for this procedure was effective. Acceptable results were obtained for Compressive Strength.
For safety, L.C.R. "" has been tested via an Oral Toxicity Study using a 10 Mouse, 7 Day Method (Solid). L.C.R. "" showed no significant evidence of toxicity.
Based on the data comparison between LCR™ and the predicate device, Flowtain™, the intended use testing and oral toxicity study, LCR " was determined to be safe and effective for its intended use. Testing against the predicate device showed equivalent performance."
