Intended Use

This is a yellow ceramic alloy for single units, implants prosthetics, single & 3/4 crowns, and short span bridges.

Device Story

Ceranum 90 is a high noble, micro-fine, yellow, gold-based dental casting alloy. It is used by dental professionals for the fabrication of inlays, onlays, single crowns, bridges, and implant superstructures. It serves as a substrate for medium expansion with lower fusing porcelains and indirect restorative composites. The alloy is designed to enhance porcelain esthetics while providing the strength, durability, and color characteristics of gold. The device is processed in a dental laboratory setting to create custom dental prosthetics.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Physical and mechanical properties (melting point, Vickers hardness, yield strength, elongation, CTE, and density) were compared against the predicate device. Compositional analysis was provided. No clinical data was required or presented.

Technological Characteristics

High noble, gold-based dental casting alloy (90% Au). Composition includes Pt, Pd, Ag, Cu, Sn, Fe, and Zn. Physical properties: Melting range 2,012-2,102 °F, Vickers hardness 145.7, yield strength 255 MPa, elongation 16.76%, CTE 15.03 x 10^-6/°C, density 19.25 g/cm3. Testing performed per ANSI/ADA 5 and ISO 9693 standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring dental restorations including single units, implant superstructures, single and 3/4 crowns, and short-span bridges.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A noble metal alloy is a device composed primarily of noble metals, such as gold, palladium, platinum, or silver, that is intended for use in the fabrication of cast or porcelain-fused-to-metal crown and bridge restorations.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Dental Noble Metal Alloys.” The devices are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 872.9. See § 872.1(e) for availability of guidance information.

CERANUM 90 is a High Noble, Micro-fine, Yellow, Gold based alloy to be used for inlays, onlays, single crowns, bridge, implant superstructures and substrate for medium expansion with lower fusing porcelains and indirect restorative composites. CERANUM 90 is a high gold ceramic alloy, which heightens the porcelain esthetics of the restoration and provides strength. durability and color of gold. Despite minor differences in the materials, we believe that CERANUM 90 is a substantially equivalent to J.F.JELENKO's Jel Bios 90. These changes do not affect safety or effectiveness. {2}------------------------------------------------ #### DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows a seal with the text "DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES USA" around the edge.
