The 510(k) summary describes a thermoplastic dental resin and its physical properties and testing. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven analytical capabilities.
No
The device is a material (thermoplastic dental resin) used to fabricate dental devices like dentures and splints, not a therapeutic device itself. Its purpose is to create prosthetics that replace or support oral structures, which falls under restorative or supportive functions rather than direct therapeutic treatment.
No
This device is a thermoplastic dental resin used to fabricate dental appliances like dentures and night guards, which are therapeutic/prosthetic devices, not diagnostic ones. It does not identify, detect, or monitor a disease or condition.
No
The device is a thermoplastic dental resin, which is a physical material used for fabrication, not a software program.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the fabrication of dental devices (dentures, splints, night guards) that are placed in the mouth. This is a therapeutic or prosthetic application, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the material properties and how it's used to create physical dental devices. There is no mention of analyzing samples from the human body for diagnostic purposes.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
- Providing information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or prognosis of a disease or condition.
The device is clearly intended for use in the fabrication of dental prosthetics and appliances, which falls under the category of medical devices, but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.

Dear Cindy Buchoon-Legendre:
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.

Table A
Summary of the technological characteristics of Duracetal compared to the predicate device, Duraflex.
Both products are purchased by dental labs and are then used to make oral devices as per the direction of a doctor / dental practitioner.
The technology for the pellet form is the same. Both the Duracetal pellets and the Duraflex pellets are intended to be melted and injection-molded within a laboratory environment to form dental devices. However, the heating temperature and time is different. This is to accommodate an even flow of the molten Duracetal material.

RTA response for 510(k) number K172407
Although both are from the same family of chemicals, the individual chemical composition is different. Biocompatibility results show that this difference does not affect safety and effectiveness.
The technology for the Duracetal disc is different. The disc is intended to be milled in a dental CNC machine to make the same devices.
The final devices, made from the Duracetal pellets, Duracetal discs or the predicate Duraflex pellets then go through the same steps. They are temporarily fitted on the patient by a doctor / dental practitioner.
PERFORMANCE DATA
The Duracetal thermoplastic resin was tested for conformance and / or developed in accordance with the following standards:
ISO 10993-1: Biological evaluation of medical devices
ISO 20795-1: Dentistry - base polymers- part 1: Denture base polymers
ASTM D792 Density
ASTM D638 Tensile Strength
ASTM D638 Tensile Modulus
ASTM D790 Flexural strength
ASTM D790 Flexural / Bending Modulus
ASTM D570 Water sorption
ASTM D256 Izod Impact, Notched
It is also conforming to ISO 13485: Medical devices- Quality management systemsrequirements for regulatory purposes.
The specific biocompatibility tests conducted were:
- Cytotoxicity
- Sensitization
- Irritation -intracutaneous reactivity ●
- Subchronic toxicity

Results from the performance data (discussed above) demonstrated that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the predicate device.
CONCLUSION
Based on the comparison of the Duracetal thermoplastic resin to the predicate Duraflex thermoplastic resin and based on the non-clinical testing, it is concluded that the Duracetal thermoplastic resin is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
