The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and stability of a dental impression material, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
This device is an impression material used to obtain impressions of the patient's teeth and oral tissues; it does not treat or cure any condition.
No
Explanation: The device, Kalginate®, is an impression material used to obtain physical impressions of teeth and oral tissues. This process is for replication, not for diagnosing a disease or condition.
No
The device is a physical material (powder) that is mixed with water to form an impression material, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to obtain impressions of teeth and oral tissues. This is a physical process for creating a mold, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The description details a material mixed with water to form an elastic impression material. This aligns with a physical impression process, not a diagnostic assay.
- Lack of Diagnostic Information: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
- Anatomical Site: While the oral cavity is mentioned, the device is used within the body to create a physical impression, not to analyze samples taken from the oral cavity for diagnostic purposes.
IVD devices are typically used to examine specimens such as blood, urine, tissue, or other body fluids to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. Kalginate ® does not fit this description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Accelerated shelf life testing was conducted on a batch of the new Kalginate ® Impression Material. The batch was mixed and processed using Research and Development equipment. Test samples from the batch were aged for 3 months at 23° and 40° C. The elevated temperature represents a 2 year shelf life. A summary of the tests and the results is discussed in Appendix 4. The results show no stability difference between the new and old Kalginate @ Impression Material formulations.

7. Performance data
Performance
Accelerated shelf life testing was conducted on a batch of the new Kalginate ® Impression Material. The batch was mixed and processed using Research and Development equipment. Test samples from the batch were aged for 3 months at 23° and 40° C. The elevated temperature represents a 2 year shelf life. A summary of the tests and the results is discussed in Appendix 4. The results show no stability difference between the new and old Kalginate @ Impression Material formulations.
Biocompatibility
Test results from a cheek Pouch Mucosal Irritation Histopathology Study indicates that the Kalginate ® formulation with the Red Pigment #38 is non-irritating to the cheek pouch mucosa of hamsters.
