The description mentions "algorithms" for image processing but does not explicitly state or imply the use of AI or ML techniques. The performance studies focus on equivalence to traditional methods and software validation, not on AI/ML performance metrics.
No.
The device is used to record the topographical characteristics of teeth, gingiva, and/or palate for the production of orthodontic appliances and does not directly provide therapy or treatment.
No
The device is an optical impression system that records topographical characteristics of teeth, gingiva, and/or palate for the production of orthodontic appliances. It replaces traditional cast impressions for recording dental features. While it captures data, its intended use and described function do not involve diagnosing a disease, condition, or state of health; rather, it aids in appliance production.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a handheld wand connected to a computer housed in a base unit, and the wand contains a video camera. This indicates the presence of hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside the body (in vitro).
- Device Function: This device is an intraoral optical impression system. It directly scans the inside of the patient's mouth to create a 3D model. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to record the topographical characteristics of teeth, gingiva, and palate for the production of orthodontic appliances. This is a diagnostic tool in the sense of capturing anatomical information, but not in the sense of analyzing biological samples for disease or condition markers.
The device is a medical device, specifically a dental device, but it falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Device Description
The Digital Impression System for Orthodontic Use (DIS) is a handheld intraoral 3D imager intended for use inside the human oral cavity to digitally capture the three-dimensional topography of teeth, gingiva, and/or palate in clinical settings. It is intended to replace traditional cast impressions which are the current standard for recording dental and orthodontic features of patients undergoing orthodontic treatment. The system is intended to be used by orthodontists and orthodontic assistants in an orthodontic office environment. The system consists of a handheld wand connected to a computer which is housed in a base unit. The computer contains proprietary software to acquire, process, and store the digital 3D image data. Patient information is entered into the software using a touch screen monitor connected to the computer. To capture a 3D image of the patient's dental arch and/or bite, the operator moves the wand over the surface of the teeth to be scanned. A video camera inside the wand captures images of the teeth surfaces. Algorithms in the software process these images into a 3D image and display the 3D image on the computer monitor in real time. The software also saves the 3D image data and identifying patient information to be used by orthodontic manufacturers to design and manufacture customized orthodontic appliances.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-Clinical Test Data: Biocompatibility studies (Cytotoxicity, Irritation and Sensitization) have been completed on the disposable wand tip included in the Digital Impression System for Orthodontic Use product. 3D topographical files were created by the Digital Impression System for Orthodontic Use and compared to files derived from, digitized polyvinylsiloxane (PVS) traditional impressions. Test results confirmed that digital impressions generated by the Digital Impression System for Orthodontic Use are substantially equivalent to PVS impressions made by traditional means. Additionally, the Digital Impression System for Orthodontic Use software has been successfully validated to confirm the performance of the device. Clinical Test Data: Clinical testing has not been conducted on this product.
