No reference devices were used in this submission.
No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of a suture, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
The device, a PTFE suture, is used for approximating and/or ligating dental soft tissue, which is a restorative or supportive function rather than a therapeutic treatment.
No
The intended use of the device is for dental soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical suture and needle, not software.
No, 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 (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Biotex Non-Absorbable PTFE Suture is a surgical suture used for "dental soft tissue approximation and/or ligation." This is a device used within the body during a surgical procedure.
- No Mention of Specimen Testing: The document does not mention any testing of biological specimens or analysis of samples taken from the body.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Biotex Non-Absorbable PTFE Suture is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Seonghwan Song:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products.
