No
The summary describes a material for relining dentures and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes.
The device's intended use is for soft relinings of dentures, which helps improve the fit and comfort of dentures, thereby providing a therapeutic benefit to the patient.

No
The device description indicates that GC Reline Soft / Extra Soft is a material for making soft relinings of dentures, which is a treatment or restoration function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "resilient material" composed of physical components like "denture relining Soft/Extra Soft, Primer (Primer R and Primer M) and Modifier and Silicone Points." This indicates a physical product, 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 "making soft relinings of dentures." This is a dental procedure performed on a patient's denture, which is an external device.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a material used for relining dentures.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVDs are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (on a patient's denture, which is worn in the mouth).
