Intended Use
For use as a tooth-bonding agent that seals patent dentinal tubules to reduce hypersensitivity and aids in the retention of tooth-colored dental to reduce hypersenstering into are over EASY BOND that has been painted onto prepared cavities.
Device Description
EASY BOND may be described as a single-bottle, light-cured, dentin bonding system especially formulated for use with resin composite restorative materials. It will also create reliable bonds properly prepared metallic surfaces that are free from contamination. EASY BOND is recommended on moist dentin substrates that have had any smear layer removed.

No
The summary describes a chemical bonding agent and does not mention any computational or data-driven features.

No
The device is a bonding agent used to seal dentinal tubules and aid in the retention of dental materials. While it addresses hypersensitivity, its primary function is not to treat a disease or condition in a therapeutic manner but rather to facilitate dental restorations.

No
The device is described as a tooth-bonding agent and dentin bonding system, used for sealing dentinal tubules and aiding in the retention of restorative materials. Its function is to treat and bond, not to identify or diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "single-bottle, light-cured, dentin bonding system," which is a physical substance (a chemical formulation) and not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes a product applied to the tooth for bonding and reducing sensitivity. This is a direct application to a biological structure, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a bonding system for use with restorative materials and metallic surfaces. This aligns with a dental material used in treatment, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is purely therapeutic and restorative in a dental context.
