No
Explanation: The device, TempoCem N/E, is a dental luting agent for temporary cementation, which is a treatment function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device is described as a "dental luting agent," which is a physical material used for temporary cementation. This indicates it is a hardware/material-based device, 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 "a dental luting agent for the temporary cementation of crowns and bridges." This describes a material used directly on a patient's teeth for a physical purpose (holding a restoration in place).
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.

The function of TempoCem N/E is a physical application within the mouth, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.
