Intended Use

AP-052-5 is a high-noble, gold based alloy suitable for use with the porcelainfused-to-metal technique of fabricating dental restorations. The mechanical and rated to moter veemmake AP-052-5 suitable for use as a substrate for single unit restorations in the anterior region (Bicuspids, cuspids, and incisors)

Device Story

AP-052-5 is a high-noble, gold-based dental alloy; used as a substrate for porcelain-fused-to-metal single unit restorations in the anterior region (bicuspids, cuspids, incisors). Fabricated by dental professionals in a laboratory setting. Biocompatibility assessed per ISO 10993-1. Mechanical and physical properties compared to predicate to ensure suitability for clinical use.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data presented. Biocompatibility assessed according to ISO 10993-1.

Technological Characteristics

High-noble, gold-based dental alloy. Form factor: alloy for dental restorations. Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-1 compliant.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use as a substrate for single unit dental restorations in the anterior region (bicuspids, cuspids, and incisors) using the porcelain-fused-to-metal technique.

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.

Data has been presented to demonstrate that the mechanical and physical properties of AP-052-5 make it substantially equivalent to the predicate device listed, and therefore it is suitible for use as a substrate for single unit restorations in the anterior region. Biocompatability of AP-052-5 has been assesed according to International Standard ISO 10993-1. The safety and effectiveness of AP-052-5 is therefore determined to be equivalent to the predicate device. {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/1 description: The image shows a black and white logo.

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. {2}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 - Mr. Slanski Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
