The device description focuses on the material composition and physical properties of a dental composite, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any form of AI/ML technology.

No
Explanation: A therapeutic device is designed to treat or alleviate a medical condition. This device is a dental composite used for restorations and repairs of teeth, which are restorative rather than therapeutic actions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "universal light-curing, radio-opaque nano-hybrid composite" used for "direct restoration," "core build-up," and "repairs." These are therapeutic and restorative functions, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "universal light-curing, radio-opaque nano-hybrid composite," which is a physical material used for dental restorations. It describes the chemical composition and physical properties of the material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all related to direct dental restorations and procedures performed on the patient's teeth (e.g., filling cavities, veneers, splinting). IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The description details a composite material used for filling and shaping teeth. It does not describe a device that analyzes biological samples.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "Teeth," which are part of the body but the device is used to restore them, not to diagnose conditions based on analysis of biological samples from them.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility and physical properties of the material, which are relevant for a dental restorative material, not for an IVD.

In summary, the device is a dental restorative material used directly on the patient's teeth for treatment purposes, not for in vitro diagnostic testing of biological samples.
