Intended Use

Porta IP Solder V-1 is intended for use as a solder before firing in operations in which dental ceramic alloy(s) parts are joined to form a dental restoration. It should be used only together with recommended dental alloys with suitable melting ranges and compositions.

Device Description

Porta IP Solder V-1 is a dental brazing alloy, that can be used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances for patients. It is a yellow alloy with very high contents of precious metals (Gold; Platinum; Iridium and Silver: 99,5%). Porta IP Solder V-1 is suitable for use as a filler material in operations in which dental alloy(s) parts are joined to form a dental restoration, e.g. bridges. It is intended as solder before firing for ceramic dental alloys with appropriate melting ranges and compositions, especially DuoPal 6, Simidur S2 and Simidur KF plus, which are manufactured by Wieland Dental + Technik GmbH & Co. KG, Germany. Porta IP Solder V-1 is highly corrosion resistant. It fully complies to the international standard ISO 9333 and fulfills the essential requirements of the European directive 93/42/ECC concerning medical devices.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a dental brazing alloy, Porta IP Solder V-1. It describes the device, its intended use, and its substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device.

However, the document does not contain information about:

  • Acceptance criteria for a study proving device performance.
  • A study demonstrating achievement of acceptance criteria.
  • Details regarding sample sizes, data provenance, expert involvement, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, or ground truth establishment.

Instead, the document focuses on:

  • Device Description: Porta IP Solder V-1 is a dental brazing alloy, high in precious metals (Gold, Platinum, Iridium, Silver: 99.5%), intended for joining dental alloy parts to form restorations (e.g., bridges) before firing ceramic dental alloys. It is corrosion resistant and complies with ISO 9333 and European directive 93/42/ECC.
  • Predicate Device: Argesol YPF (K942859).
  • Regulatory Classification: Class II, Product Code EJT, under 21 CFR 872.3060 (Gold-Based Alloys and Precious Metal Alloys for Clinical Use).
  • Substantial Equivalence: The FDA determined the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information as it is not present in the given text. The 510(k) summary format for this type of medical device (a material like a solder) typically focuses on material composition, intended use, and equivalence to existing devices rather than a performance study with acceptance criteria in the way a diagnostic or AI-driven device might.

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.

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.

Page 2 - Dr. Polzer

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.
