Unknown

The provided 510(k) summary is incomplete and lacks a device description, making it impossible to determine if the device is software-only or includes hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "For relining and rebasing dentures." This describes a process performed on a physical object (dentures) outside of the body, not a test performed on a biological sample to diagnose a condition or provide information about a physiological state.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

The intended use clearly indicates a dental procedure involving the modification of dentures, which falls outside the scope of in vitro diagnostics.
