Intended Use
Porta Geo Ti is a gold-platinum ceramic alloy that can be used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances for patients. It is intended for manufacturing Inlays/ Onlays, Partial crowns, Crowns, Short span bridges, Long span bridges, Removable partials and can be used for Telescopic and milling work. Porta Geo Ti can be veneered with suitable dental ceramics as well as with dentalcomposites.
Device Description
Porta Geo Ti is an extra-hard gold-platinum ceramic alloy with a high content of noble metals (95,4%), intended for dental technicians to fabricate dental restorations. lt has an indication which ranges from inlays/onlays and crowns up to long span bridges with two or more pontics and removable partials. It is free of copper and therefore suitable for telescopic and milling work. Porta Geo Ti is highly corrosion resistant and has an excellent biocompatibility. It fully complies to the international standard ISO 9693 and fulfills the essential requirements of the European directive 93/42/ECC concerning medical devices.

The description focuses on the material properties and intended uses of a dental alloy, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

No.
The device is a material (alloy) used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances, not a device directly used for therapy.

No
This device is a material (alloy) used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a gold-platinum ceramic alloy, which is a physical material used for fabricating dental appliances, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that Porta Geo Ti is a material used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances that are placed in the patient's mouth. It is not used to test or analyze samples taken from the patient.
  • The description focuses on the material properties and its use in creating dental restorations. There is no mention of any diagnostic purpose, analysis of biological samples, or detection of diseases or conditions.

Therefore, Porta Geo Ti is a dental material used for fabrication, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Dr. Polzer:

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.
