More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and clinical equivalence to a predicate device, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a sealant for teeth, preventing future issues rather than treating an existing condition.

No
The device, Ionosit Seal, is a sealant used to seal pits and fissures in teeth. Its intended use is a treatment (sealing), and its performance studies relate to adhesion and leakage of the sealant, not to detecting or diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "one-component light cured liquid resin," which is a physical material, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "seal the pits and fissures of occlusual non-carious posterior teeth." This is a direct treatment or preventative measure applied to the patient's teeth.
  • Device Description: The device is a "one-component light cured liquid resin." This is a material applied to the teeth.
  • Lack of In Vitro Testing: While there are "in-vitro tests" mentioned in the performance studies, these are standard material property tests for dental sealants (adhesion, leakage) and not tests performed on biological samples outside the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "occlusual non-carious posterior teeth," which are part of the patient's body.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is applied directly to the patient's teeth for a preventative/restorative purpose.

Summary of Performance Studies

When tested in standard in-vitro tests for pit and fissure sealants, Ionosit seal material demonstrated that in the critical areas of adhesion and leakage, it was equivalent to Fluoro-Shield.
