Dear Tao Feng:
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 (the 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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).
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); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reporting-mdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance) and CDRH Learn (https://www.fda.gov/training-and-continuing-education/cdrh-learn).

5.3 Design
LuxCreo Flexible Partial Denture Resin is a liquid light-curing resin indicated for the fabrication and repair of partial denture bases. To accomplish this three-dimensional fabrication, a 3D printer, based on a 3D stereolithographic drawing, prints the pre-determined shape of each dental appliance. 3D Printing uses specialty liquid resins, which when combined with UV (385~405nm) and/or thermal treatment, allows the fabricated part to achieve mechanical properties similar to thermoplastics and excellent biological safety results.
LuxCreo Flexible Partial Denture Resin is designed to be used in a system with components of scanner, design fabrication software, validated 3D Printer, cleaning system, and post-curing unit. These components are used together during the additive manufacturing of partial denture bases.
Partial denture bases are constructed using LuxCreo Flexible Partial Denture Resin in accordance to the following steps:
- Design: Patient's bite and dentition is digitally reproduced via intra-oral scan. The quality of the scan impacts the quality and fitment of the resulting device, and is the responsibility of an appropriately trained and qualified practitioner. A dental design service or dental CAD software (e.g. Exocad PartialCAD and LuxDesign) can be used to design dental models in according to treatment plan. The dental model files are imported into dental CAD software (e.g. Exocad PartialCAD and LuxDesign) to generate flexible partial denture base model files.

3 / 8
-
Printing: The flexible partial denture base model files are imported into a slicing software (e.g. LuxFlow) to render the CAD model 3D printable. The CAD model is then sent to an appropriate 3D Printer (e.g. a LuxCreo printer such as iLux Pro Dental and fastprint.io). The 3D printer constructs the partial denture bases out of LuxCreo Flexible Partial Denture Resin.
-
Post-processing: After printing, the printed partial denture bases are subjected to a post-processing treatment that includes cleaning excess resin from the printed part, subjecting the part to additional UV and/or thermal treatment, and finishing the part via support removal and/or any buffing or polishing steps that a dental health professional deems appropriate for aesthetic and functional purposes.
Dental professionals can then attach the teeth to the finished flexible denture base using FDA-cleared dental materials, such as approved teeth and adhesive, to construct the partial denture.

12. Clinical Data
The nonclinical bench testing conducted in accordance with FDA-recognized consensus standards (ISO 20795-1 for denture base polymers) demonstrated that the subject device meets all applicable performance criteria for strength, durability, water resistance, and residual monomer content. Biocompatibility testing performed in accordance with ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10, ISO 10993-11, and ISO 7405 confirmed that the device is non-cytotoxic, non-sensitizing, non-irritating, and does not pose systemic or genetic toxicity risks, establishing an acceptable biological safety profile for long-term mucosal contact. No clinical testing was required because the nonclinical evidence and comparison to legally marketed predicate devices with the same intended use and technological characteristics were sufficient to establish substantial equivalence. Taken together, the results demonstrate that the subject device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the
