More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and composition of a dental sealant, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
A pit and fissure sealant is a preventative dental material that seals the natural depressions and grooves on tooth surfaces to prevent decay, rather than treating an existing disease or condition, which is characteristic of a therapeutic device.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a "Pit & Fissure Sealant," which is a material used to seal teeth to prevent decay. Its intended use is to "seal the pits and fissures in teeth." This is a preventative or restorative action, not a diagnostic one. Diagnostic devices are used to identify or detect a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a fluoride releasing, light-cured acrylate resin, which is a physical material, not software.

No, 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.
  • PacSeal™ Pit & Fissure Sealant's intended use: The intended use is to "Seal the pits and fissures in teeth." This is a direct treatment or preventative measure applied to the tooth, not a test performed on a sample from the body.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a resin applied to the tooth surface.
  • Lack of IVD characteristics: The document does not mention any testing of biological samples, analysis of bodily fluids, or diagnostic information being generated.

Therefore, based on the provided information, PacSeal™ Pit & Fissure Sealant is a dental device used for a restorative or preventative procedure, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Dear Ms. Zhu:

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.
