Indications for Use
Fluorcanasite is a CAD/CAM machinable glass ceramic block, batched from standard glass-making ingredients which are intended to be used by trained professionals in a dentist's office for the manufacture of all-ceramic inlays, onlays, crowns, and veneers.
Device Story
Fluorcanasite is a CAD/CAM machinable glass-ceramic block composed of sodium, potassium, and calcium carbonates, calcium fluoride, silica, and zirconia. Used in dental offices by trained professionals to manufacture all-ceramic inlays, onlays, crowns, and veneers. The material is machined into tooth cores, then veneered and bonded to the patient's prepared dentine. The device provides a restorative solution for dental patients. Performance is validated through non-clinical testing, including biaxial flexural strength, fracture toughness, and biocompatibility assessments.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence is based on non-clinical bench testing including ISO 6872:2008 (biaxial flexural strength, fracture toughness, clinical solubility), Vickers hardness testing, ISO 10993-5 (biocompatibility), and microstructural analysis (XRD/SEM). Radiochemical analysis confirmed uranium content is within safe limits.
Technological Characteristics
Multiple chain-silicate glass-ceramic. Composition: sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate, calcium fluoride, silica, and zirconia. Form factor: CAD/CAM machinable blocks. Testing standards: ISO 6872:2008, ISO 10993-5. Properties: 271.3 MPa biaxial flexural strength, 4.2 MPa m1/2 fracture toughness, 5.18 GPa hardness.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by trained dental professionals for the fabrication of all-ceramic inlays, onlays, crowns, and veneers in patients requiring dental restorations.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Porcelain powder for clinical use is a device consisting of a mixture of kaolin, felspar, quartz, or other substances intended for use in the production of artificial teeth in fixed or removable dentures, of jacket crowns, facings, and veneers. The device is used in prosthetic dentistry by heating the powder mixture to a high temperature in an oven to produce a hard prosthesis with a glass-like finish.

INTENDED USE: Fluorcanasite is a CAD/CAM machinable glass ceramic block, batched from standard glass-making ingredients which are intended to be used by trained professionals in a dentist's office for the manufacture of all-ceramic inlays, onlays, crowns, and veneers.
TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Fluorcanasite is a multiple chain-silicate glass-ceramic comprised of sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate, calcium fluoride, Loch Aline sand (high purity silica) and zirconia. Its properties display high strength and fracture toughness and the potential as an indirect resin-bonded dental restoration.
CLINICAL TESTING: Non-clinical test data was used to support the devices safety and effectiveness.
NON-CLINICAL TESTING: Fluorcanasite was subjected to the following non-clinical testing:
- . ISO 6872:2008: Biaxial Flexural Strength, Fracture Toughness and Clinical Solubility;
- . Vickers Hardness: Thermal Shock, Hardness and Brittleness Index, and Shelf Life;
- ISO 10993-5: Biocompatibility; and,
- . XRD and SEM - Crystalline Phase and Microstructural Analysis
{2}------------------------------------------------
with the result that Fluorcanasite performed as well as, or better than, the predicate device.
OTHER INFORMATION DEEMED NECESSARY BY FDA: A sample of dental restorative glass powder was analysed for uranium content. The results of the radiochemical analysis are tabulated on the following, with uncertainties quoted with a coverage factor of k=2, providing a level of confidence of approximately 95%. This work was managed under the NPL LRQA registration to ISO 9001:2000.
Uranium was measured in this sample by initial dissolution in mineral acids, followed by ion exchange separation of uranium. The separated uranium was electrodeposited onto a stainless steel disc, which was then measured using a-particle spectrometry. Standardised 2320 was added as a chemical yield tracer for the analysis.
| NPL identifier | Nuclide | Activity concentration | Mass concentration1 |
|----------------|---------|------------------------|---------------------|
| | | Bq/kg | μg/kg |
| IM0900 | 234U | <8 | <0.035 |
| | 235U | <1 | <0.51 |
| | 238U | <1 | <6.5 |
| | Total | <10 | <7.0 |
#### CONCLUSION:
The testing indicates that Fluorcanasite is safe and effective for its intended use and performs as well or better than the predicate device.
