No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical and chemical properties of dental materials, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The devices are used for indirect and direct pulp capping, which are therapeutic procedures aimed at preserving pulp vitality and promoting healing in teeth with deep caries lesions or pulp exposures.
No
These devices are materials used for dental procedures like cavity lining and pulp capping, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states that the devices are physical materials (pastes and a two-part system) sold in syringes or tubes with accompanying applicator tips, spatulas, and mixing pads. These are hardware components, not software.
Based on the provided information, none of these devices are IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device descriptions clearly indicate that these products are applied directly to the patient's teeth and surrounding structures (cavities, pulp, dentin, root canals). They are not used to test samples taken from the body.
- The performance studies focus on physical and chemical properties of the materials themselves, such as strength, cure depth, solubility, flow, and pH. They do not involve testing biological samples or measuring biological markers.
- The anatomical sites mentioned are within the patient's mouth, not laboratory settings where IVD testing typically occurs.
These devices are dental materials used for restorative and therapeutic purposes within the patient's mouth, not for diagnostic testing of biological specimens.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Apacal ART, and Cal LC were tested for appearance, flexural strength, depth of cure, water sorption/solubility, and radio-opacity according to protocols based on ISO 9917-2:2017, ISO 4049:2019 and ISO 13116:2014. Calcigel was tested for appearance and flow according to ISO 6876:2012, radioopacity according to ISO 13116: 2014 and pH according to USP 971. CalUltra was tested for appearance and compressive strength according to ISO 9917-1:2017, water solubility and setting time according to ISO 6876:2012, radio-opacity according to ISO 13116:2014, and pH according to USP 971.
Shelf life testing was completed on all devices using relevant protocols also used for the physical characteristics tested. Shelf life for all four cavity liners is 3 years.
All tests results met the criteria in standards.
The cavity liners contain ingredients found in the predicate and reference devices. They are used for the same type of contact, external communicating with contact to tissue/bone/dentin. The indications for use of the devices and the predicate devices are the same so the risks incurred for use of the ingredients are the same. Since no new risks are introduced, no biocompatibility testing was done.

Conclusion: Prevest Denpro Cavity Liners are substantially equivalent to the predicate device, Cleanical. They have the same indications, same mechanism of action, and very similar ingredients. Both the subject devices and the predicate device have physical parameters which meet requirements of the relevant ISO standards. Shelf life testing is similar to the shelf life testing of predicate or reference device including Cavios K111668 which also has a 3 year shelf life. Reference devices are included to cover any ingredients, or indications not covered by the predicate devices. Any differences in ingredients are minor and do not change the substantial equivalence.
