No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and mixing/dispensing methods of an impression material, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
The device is described as an impression material intended to reproduce the structure of a patient's teeth for the production of temporary restorations, preliminary impressions, and orthodontic models. It does not provide any treatment or therapy.
No
The device is an impression material used to reproduce the structure of teeth, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states that Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are "A-silicone impression materials" and "two component (base paste/catalyst) vinyl polysiloxane impression materials," which are physical substances used to create impressions. The description also mentions "Garant™ cartridges" and a "Garant™ dispenser," indicating physical components for mixing and extruding the material. This is not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are "impression materials" intended to "reproduce the structure of a patient's teeth" and for taking "impressions." This involves directly interacting with the patient's oral cavity to create a physical mold.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing any biological specimens taken from the patient. The device's function is to capture a physical form.
Therefore, based on the provided text, this device falls under the category of a dental impression material used directly on the patient, not an in vitro diagnostic device that analyzes specimens outside the body.

Device Description
Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are classified as impression materials (21 C.F.R. § 872.3660) because they are devices intended to reproduce the structure of a patient's teeth. As the predicate devices Flash AR Penta™ and Flash AR Penta™ Quick (K131404), Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are medium-bodied (ISO Type 2) consistency A-silicone impression materials for all kinds of preliminary impressions. Like Flash AR Penta™ and Flash AR Penta™ Quick, Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are two component (base paste/catalyst) vinyl polysiloxane impression materials to be used for impressions, where typically alginates are used. Whereas Flash AR Penta™ and Flash AR Penta™ Quick are designed to automatically be mixed and dispensed in all versions of Pentamix™ devices of 3M Deutschland GmbH and the mixing ratio for both materials is base paste:catalyst, 5:1 (by volume), Flash AR and Flash AR Ouick will be delivered in Garant™ cartridges (50 ml plastic cartridges) and can be mixed and extruded using the Garant™ dispenser manufactured by 3M Deutschland GmbH with the mixing ratio for both materials of base paste:catalyst, 1:1 (by volume).

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Test results according to ISO 4823 showed that Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices Flash AR Penta and Flash AR Penta Quick. Flash AR has same working time and intra-oral setting time as its predicate device Flash AR Penta, whereas working time and intra-oral setting time of Flash AR Quick are the same as those of its predicate device Flash AR Penta Quick. The indications for use of Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are the same as those of the predicate devices Flash AR Penta and Flash AR Penta Quick. Comparison for indications for use, performance data, and chemistry shows that Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. Biocompatibility testing was carried out. Biocompatibility evaluations have been performed for Flash AR and Flash AR Quick in consideration of FDA & internationally recognized guidelines. The conclusion of the assessments is that Flash AR and Flash AR Quick materials are biocompatible for its intended use. In summary, it can be concluded that Flash AR and Flash AR Quick are substantially equivalent in safety and effectiveness as the predicate devices Flash AR Penta™ and Flash AR PentaTM Quick by 3M Deutschland GmbH, Germany (K131404).
