No
The device is used for temporary retraction of the gingival margin during dental procedures, which is a mechanical action, not a therapeutic one intended to treat or cure a disease or condition.
No.
The device is used for temporary retraction of the gingival margin, which is a therapeutic or procedural action, not a diagnostic one. It does not identify or diagnose a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is "unimpregnated cord," which is a physical material, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The intended use of Quicknit Cord is for the temporary retraction of the gingival margin in the mouth during dental procedures. It is a physical device used directly on the patient's tissue, not for analyzing a biological sample.
- The description focuses on a physical device and its mechanical function. The description details the cord itself and its purpose of displacing gum tissue. There is no mention of analyzing any biological material or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
Therefore, Quicknit Cord is a dental device used for a procedural purpose, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Gober:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
