No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and mechanical performance of a ceramic crown and its accessories. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
Yes
The device, a ceramic crown, is intended for the restoration of permanent teeth, which is a therapeutic intervention to treat structurally compromised teeth.
No
The device, L-OVC, is a ceramic crown intended for the restoration of permanent teeth. While some accessories assist in fit and selection (e.g., L-OVC Replica for clearance confirmation, Selector Keys for size measurement), their primary function is to facilitate the placement and customization of the restorative device, not to diagnose a disease or condition. Its purpose is treatment, not diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly states that the L-OVC is a ceramic crown made of physical materials (lithium disilicate, ceramic composite resin) and includes physical accessories (Replica, Wedges, Selector Keys). It is a physical medical device, not software.
Based on the provided information, the L-OVC device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "restoration of permanent teeth with a single unit crown." This is a direct treatment or restoration of a physical structure within the body (a tooth).
- Device Description: The device is a ceramic crown designed to be bonded to a prepared natural tooth. It's a physical implant/restoration.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device does not perform any tests on samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Accessories: The accessories (Replica, Wedges, Selector Keys) are tools used for fitting, placement, and preparation related to the physical crown, not for diagnostic testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information about a physiological state, health, disease, or congenital abnormality. The L-OVC device does not fit this description.

Device Description
The L-OVC is a ceramic crown, and includes an anatomic occlusal layer made of lithium disilicate, a thin priming/bonding layer that assists with bonding the occlusal layer to the sub-layer of uncured hybrid ceramic that allows for customization of the L-OVC to the specific tooth preparation. The customized L-OVC is bonded to the prepared natural tooth. The L-OVC is for restoring structurally compromised posterior teeth in cases normally restored with an onlay or a partial crown in a single dental visit. The L-OVC is selected based on tooth location and size and therefore no impressions are necessary. The L-OVC is provided in designs for the upper and lower first and second premolars and second molars, and each design is provided in five (5) sizes (extra-small (XS), small (S), medium (M), large (L), and extra-large (XL)). The L-OVC is made from lithium disilicate and high-strength ceramic composite resin. The L-OVC is provided nonsterile for singlepatient, single-use only.
Accessories to the L-OVC device include the L-OVC Replica, a replica of the ceramic occlusal portion of the L-OVC. The L-OVC Replica is used to confirm that sufficient occlusal clearance was obtained during tooth preparation and to provide direct visualization of the overall 3D position of the L-OVC on the prepared tooth and the relationship with adjacent and opposing dentition. The L-OVC Replica is manufactured from a thermoplastic elastomer resin. L-OVC Wedges are accessories provided in four configurations (small right, large left and large right), and are placed interproximally to create a working surface and to block out undercuts of the preparation. The Wedges are manufactured from polyacetal resin. The Selector Keys are accessories that allow the clinician to measure the mesial-distal distance in order to choose the appropriate size L-OVC for the restoration, and are used during the curing of the uncured resin to prevent disturbing the placement of the crown. The Selector Keys are manufactured from polycarbonate resin. All accessories are provided nonsterile for singlepatient, single-use only. The Class I accessories are provided for informational purposes only.

The subject device and the primary predicate K143694 have similar Indications for Use statements.
The subject device and the primary predicate device have similar indications for use, the same intended use, and essentially the same designs for the individual crown components. The subject device comprises four materials: lithium disilicate substantially equivalent to the reference predicate K100512, polymer composite resin used in the same way as in the primary predicate K143694, and materials similar to those of the reference predicates K090826 and K123397. The subject device and the primary predicate device K143694 are provided in a range of designs and sizes to restore the premolars and molars of the upper and lower jaw. For the specific teeth that each device is designed to restore, both the subject device and the primary predicate device K143694 provide preformed anatomic occlusal surfaces.
6
The subject device priming/bonding layer, which assists with bonding the occlusal layer to the sub-laver, consists of the reference predicate materials Monobond Plus (K090826) and Multilink Automix (K123397). The Monobond Plus and Multilink Automix materials are used in the subject device for their cleared indications and according to the manufacturer's instructions for use.
The subject device and the primary predicate device K143694 also both incorporate light-cured resin material as a sub-layer to conform to the shape of the prepared tooth, and to provide a customizable, single visit crown restoration. The subject device sub-layer (the crown surface bonded to the prepared tooth) is manufactured from a layer of uncured polymer composite resin to allow for customization and to assist with a cohesive fit of the crown to the prepared tooth. This is the same material used for the same purpose in the primary predicate K143694.
The design of the subject device occlusal layer and the design of the primary predicate device K143694 are essentially the same, except that the subject device has chamfered surfaces (on the apical aspects) and a slightly increased thickness. The chamfered surfaces and slightly increased thickness of the subject device occlusal layer are accommodated by the natural tooth preparation and the thickness of the uncured hybrid ceramic sub-layer. The subject device occlusal layer is made of lithium disilicate, the same intended use as the reference predicate device K100512. Performance testing of the subject device lithium disilicate material also was provided in this submission to support a determination of substantial equivalence.
The L-OVC accessory devices are substantially equivalent in terms of design and function to the predicate K 143694 accessory devices. The designs of the subject device L-OVC Replica are very similar to those of the predicate OVC Replica. The material for the L OVC Replica is different than that of the OVC Replica. To support a determination of substantial equivalence, biocompatibility testing of the L-OVC Replica material was provided in this submission.
CONCLUSION
The subject device and the predicate devices have the same intended use, have similar technological characteristics, and are made of similar materials. The subject device and the primary predicate devices encompass the same range of physical dimensions. The subject device and the predicate devices are packaged in similar materials and are provided nonsterile for single-patient, single-use only.
The data included in this submission demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices listed above.
