No
The document describes a light-curing restorative composite based on methacrylate resin chemistry and inorganic filler. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

No
This device is a dental restorative material, not a therapeutic device designed for treating or alleviating a disease or condition. Its intended uses are for restorations, sealants, cementation, and repairs of dental structures.

No
The device is described as a "light curing restorative composite" used for repairs and restorations, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "single part, light curing restorative composite" based on "methacrylate resin chemistry incorporating an inorganic filler," which are physical materials, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all related to dental procedures performed directly on a patient's teeth (restorations, sealants, cementation, repairs). IVDs are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "light curing restorative composite" based on "methacrylate resin chemistry incorporating an inorganic filler." This is consistent with materials used in dental restorations, not diagnostic tests.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status based on laboratory testing.

Therefore, the 3M™ LVR System is a dental restorative material, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
