Intended Use

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

Device Story

CERANUM 50 is a high noble, micro-fine, yellow, gold-based dental casting alloy. It is used by dental professionals for the fabrication of single crowns, bridges, implant superstructures, and as a substrate for medium expansion, lower-fusing porcelains and indirect restorative composites. The alloy provides the strength, durability, and color of gold while enhancing porcelain esthetics. It is processed via standard dental casting techniques in a laboratory setting. The final restoration is placed by a dentist to restore tooth structure or replace missing teeth, providing functional and aesthetic benefits to the patient.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. The device was evaluated for physical and mechanical properties (melting point, Vickers hardness, yield strength, elongation, CTE, density) and compared to the predicate device. No clinical data was provided.

Technological Characteristics

High noble, gold-based alloy. Composition: 50% Au, 25% Pd, 18% Ag, 2% Sn. Physical properties: Vickers hardness 240, yield strength 450 MPa, elongation 16.0%, CTE 14.2 x 10^-6/°C, density 13.9 g/cm3. Testing performed per ANSI/ADA 5 and ISO 9693 standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use in dental restorations including single units, implant prosthetics, 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 50 is a High Noble, Micro-fine, Yellow, Gold based alloy to be used for single crowns, bridge, implant superstructures and substrate for medium expansion with lower fusing porcelains and indirect restorative composites. CERANUM 50 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 CERAUM 50 is a substantially equivalent to DEGUSSA AG's DEGUBOND 4. These changes do not affect safety or effectiveness. {2}------------------------------------------------ ### DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES ood and Drug Administratio 200 Corporate Boulevaro Rockville MD 20850 NOV 4 2002 Mr. Dae-Kyu Chang SB Lucius, Incorporated 9778 Katella Avenue, Suite 205 Anaheim, California 92804 Re: K023199 Trade/Device Name: Ceranum 50 Regulation Number: 21 CFR 872.3060 Regulation Name: Gold-Based Alloys and Precious Metal Alloys for Clinical Use Regulatory Class: II Product Code: EJT Dated: September 16, 2002 Received: September 25, 2002 Dear Mr. Chang: We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to Mav 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act.
