Intended Use
Bright MTA Sealer Plus is used for filling root canals.
Device Description
Bright MTA Sealer Plus is a ready-to-use, injectable paste-like material for root canal filling, which is hardened and obturated after being injected into the root canal space. The product based on calcium silicate exhibits excellent biocompatibility as well as a low film thickness suitable for easy penetration of lateral and accessory canals.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a material (paste) for filling root canals and its physical properties. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would suggest AI/ML is involved.

No.
The device is described as a filling material for root canals, which is a structural rather than therapeutic function.

No

The device description indicates it is a material for filling root canals, and the performance studies focus on material properties like biocompatibility and mechanical testing, not on diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "ready-to-use, injectable paste-like material" and describes its physical properties and performance in mechanical and biocompatibility testing, indicating it is a physical material, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for filling root canals." This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on a patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a material that is injected into the root canal space and hardens. This is a physical filling material, not a reagent or instrument used for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring specific substances (analytes)
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

This device is a dental material used in a therapeutic procedure.

Dear Boram Choi:

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. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions.
