The 510(k) summary describes a dental casting alloy, which is a material used in prosthetics. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would typically incorporate AI/ML. The description focuses solely on the material composition and intended use as a casting alloy.
No.
The device is a casting alloy used in the construction of dental prosthetics, which is a material rather than a device for therapy.
No
This device is a ceramic casting alloy for prosthetic devices, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "nonprecious, nickel-chromium-molybdenum based ceramic casting alloy," which is 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 clearly states it's for the construction of cast ceramic bonded crown and bridge prosthetic devices. This is a dental material used in the mouth for restorative purposes.
- Classification: It is classified as a "Base Metal Alloy" under 21 CFR Part 872, which deals with dental devices.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing samples from the human body (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing information about a patient's health status, diagnosis, or disease.
- Being used in a laboratory setting for testing.
Therefore, this device is a dental prosthetic material, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Benetti:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions The general controls provisions of the Act of the Act. include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. ਉ substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices: General (GMP) requlation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic GMP inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
