More Information

No
The device is a chemical chelating agent, and the description focuses on its chemical properties and application method, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is described as a chelating agent used for debriding and clearing the root canal. While it aids in a medical procedure, it is a chemical agent, not a device that itself provides a therapeutic effect through physical or mechanical means. Its function is to facilitate the filing process by chemical action (chelating calcium from dentin).

No

Explanation: The "Intended Use" and "Device Description" sections state that PULPDENT Endo-Prep II is a chelating agent used for debriding and clearing the root canal, aiding in the filing process. It is a treatment agent, not a diagnostic tool that identifies or screens for medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a 17% EDTA chelating agent, which is a chemical substance, 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 for "debriding and clearing the root canal during endodontic procedures." This is a procedure performed directly on a patient's tooth, not on a sample taken from the body.
  • Mechanism of Action: The device works by chelating calcium from dentin within the root canal. This is a chemical action within the body (or on a part of the body).
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not fit that description.

The device is a medical device used in a dental procedure, but it is not an in vitro diagnostic.

PULPDENT Endo-Prep II DEVICE NAME:

Ultradent File-Eze PREDICATE DEVICES: Premier RC Prep Roth REDTA Chelating Agent Union Broach Endodilator N-O

DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE: PULPDENT Endo-Prep II is a 17 % EDT A chelating agent used for debriding and clearing the root canal during endodontic procedures. EDTA aids in the filing process by chelating calcium from dentin. PULPDENT Endo-Prep II will be offered in two viscosities, thin and thick, so that the dentist can apply the product either directly to the canal ovening or to the file.

COMPARISON WITH PREDICATE PRODUCTS: PULPOENT Endo-Prep II is substantially equivalent in composition and intended use as the products. Please see Exhibit 5 for the entire comparison.

SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS: According to Accepted Dental Thercepentics, which is a publication of the Council on Dental Therapeutics of the American Dental Association, a buffered, aqueous solution of EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) " .. very strongly binds or chelates heavy metal ions, [such as calcium] ... [EDTA] may be used as an aid in preparing root canals which resist enlargement by mechanical means."
