Intended Use
AIGIS-SUPER is intended for manufacturing - Inlay / Onlays - - Crowns - - Short span bridges - - Long span bridges - - Removable partials -
Device Story
AIGIS-SUPER is a 53% gold-based dental casting alloy used by dental professionals for the fabrication of dental restorations. The device is processed in a dental laboratory setting to create inlays, onlays, crowns, and both short and long-span bridges. It serves as a restorative material to replace missing or damaged tooth structure, providing a high-gold appearance. The alloy is melted and cast into the desired dental prosthetic shape. Its clinical benefit is the restoration of dental function and aesthetics for patients requiring fixed or removable dental prostheses.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Physical and mechanical properties (melting point, Vickers hardness, yield strength, elongation, and density) were compared against the predicate device. Compliance with ANSI/ADA 5 and ISO 9693 standards was reported.
Technological Characteristics
Gold-based dental casting alloy (53% gold). Physical properties: Melting range 1,768-1,948°F, Vickers hardness 150, yield strength 300 MPa, 21% elongation, density 13.8 g/cm3. Tested per ANSI/ADA 5 and ISO 9693.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the fabrication of dental restorations including inlays, onlays, crowns, short-span bridges, long-span bridges, and removable partials.
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.

#### Discussion:
Since the composition of the legally marketed alloy and the new device is very similar, it may be assumed that the biological compatibility of the alloys is also very similar.
#### Conclusion:
The main elements and their concentration are almost identical, AIGIS-SUIPER is an inlay, onlay, crown and bridge alloy. This device is dependable 53% gold alloy with a high gold appearance. AIGIS-SUPER is excellent for inlays, three-quarter crowns, long and short-span bridges. AIGIS-SUPER is substantially equivalent to JENSEN'S JYE and the minor differences between them do not affect safety or effectiveness.

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 May 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. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
