Intended Use
Pulpdent Seal-Rite™ UDMA is a radiopaque, fluoride-releasing, visible light cure dental material for sealing the pits and fissures of teeth.
Device Description
Pulpdent Seal-Rite™ UDMA is a radiopaque, fluoride-releasing, visible light cure dental material for sealing the pits and fissures of teeth. It contains no Bisphenol A. It is supplied as a medium consistency paste, which flows readily from cusp to cusp and is easily distinguishable from enamel. Pulpdent Seal-Rite™ UDMA cures completely after light curing for 20 seconds. Various formulations (with and without color, with and without fluoride) will be offered to allow for the clinician's discretion and preference in different situations. Pulpdent Seal-Rite" UDMA complies with ANSI/ADA Specification No. 39 for Pit and Fissure Sealants.

No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a dental material (sealant) and do not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" sections are explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No.
The device is a dental material used to seal pits and fissures in teeth, preventing decay rather than treating an existing disease or condition.

No
The device is described as a dental material for sealing pits and fissures, which is a treatment or preventive measure, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "dental material" supplied as a "medium consistency paste," indicating it is a physical substance, not software.

No, 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 teeth." This is a direct application to the patient's teeth for a therapeutic or preventative purpose.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "dental material" applied to teeth.
  • Lack of In Vitro Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) outside of the body to provide diagnostic information. IVDs are used to perform tests on specimens taken from the human body.

This device is a dental sealant, which is a medical device used directly on the patient.

Pulpdent Seal-Rite™ UDMA DEVICE NAME:

PREDICATE DEVICE:

Pulpdent Seal-Rite and Seal-Rite Low Viscosity Vivodent/Ivoclar Helioseal and HelioSeal-F Kulzer Estiseal Ultradent Ultra-Blend

Pulpdent Seal-Rite™UDMA is a radiopaque, DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE: fluoride-releasing, visible light cure dental material for sealing the pits and fissures of teeth. It contains no Bisphenol A. It is supplied as a medium consistency paste, which flows readily from cusp to cusp and is easily distinguishable from enamel. Pulpdent Seal-Rite™ UDMA cures completely after light curing for 20 seconds. Various formulations (with and without color, with and without fluoride) will be offered to allow for the clinician's discretion and preference in different situations. Pulpdent Seal-Rite" UDMA complies with ANSI/ADA Specification No. 39 for Pit and Fissure Sealants.

COMPARISON WITH PREDICATE PRODUCTS: Pulpdent Seal-Rite™ UDMA is substantially equivalent in composition and/or intended use to the above mentioned predicate products. Please see EXHIBIT 5 for the entire comparison.

SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS: According to the NIH Technology Assessment Conference on Effects and Side-Effects of Dental Restorative Materials, "General usage of these materials over about 20 years indicates a high benefit-to-risk ratio... both composites and glass ionomers are relatively trouble free. There is no evidence of short or long term risk... there is no suspicion of any problems after literally billions of procedures in the United States." Please see EXHIBIT 6 for the complete papers from the conference.
