No
The summary describes a resin used for soft tissue protection during bleaching and contains no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device, OpalDam resin, is used for protection during a cosmetic procedure (teeth bleaching) and does not treat or prevent any specific disease, injury, or medical condition.

No
Explanation: The device, OpalDam resin, is used to protect soft tissue during in-office bleaching procedures. Its function is protective and not involved in identifying or diagnosing a condition, disease, or its severity.

No

The device description explicitly states "OpalDam resin," indicating 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 "protect soft tissue adjacent to the teeth during in-office bleaching." This is a direct application to the patient's body (soft tissue) for a therapeutic/protective purpose during a dental procedure.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description of OpalDam resin does not involve the analysis of any specimen taken from the patient. It is a barrier material applied directly to the soft tissue.

Therefore, OpalDam resin, as described, falls under the category of a dental device used for protection during a procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
