No
The summary describes a dental sealant based on methacrylate resin chemistry and focuses on bench test performance metrics like bond strength and cure time. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets typically associated with AI/ML technologies.

No
The device is a pit and fissure sealant, used to prevent dental caries, not to treat a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is a pit and fissure sealant, which is a dental material used for prevention. Its "Intended Use / Indications for Use" clearly states it is a "Pit and fissure sealant," and the "Device Description" elaborates on it being a "single part, light curing, pit and fissure sealant" made from methacrylate resin chemistry. None of the provided information suggests it is used for identifying, detecting, or monitoring a disease or condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "single part, light curing, pit and fissure sealant" based on "methacrylate resin chemistry," indicating it 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 is "Pit and fissure sealant." This describes a material applied to teeth to prevent cavities, which is a therapeutic or preventative dental procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on samples from the body.
  • Device Description: The description states it's a "single part, light curing, pit and fissure sealant" based on "methacrylate resin chemistry." This aligns with the composition of dental materials used for sealing teeth.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition. The performance studies focus on physical properties relevant to a dental sealant (bond strength, cure time, etc.).

Therefore, the device described is a dental sealant, which falls under the category of medical devices but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.
