The summary contains no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts, and the intended use is a traditional fabrication process.
No
The device is used for the "Fabrication of Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal Dental Crowns and Bridges," which describes a manufacturing process for dental prosthetics rather than a direct therapeutic application to a patient.
No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states "Fabrication of Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal Dental Crowns and Bridges." This describes a manufacturing or restorative function, not a diagnostic one.
Unknown
The provided 510(k) summary lacks a device description, making it impossible to determine if the device is software-only or includes hardware components for the fabrication of dental crowns and bridges.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "Fabrication of Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal Dental Crowns and Bridges." This describes a process for creating a dental prosthetic, not a test performed on a sample taken from the human body to provide information about a physiological or pathological state.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description lacks any mention of:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information
- Using reagents or assays
IVDs are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. This device's purpose is the creation of a physical dental restoration.
