Intended Use
The Trubyte® Denture Base Resin System is indicated for: 1. Fabrication of dentures, appliances and prostheses 2. Repair of dentures, appliances and prostheses 3. Relining of denture surfaces
Device Description
The TRUBYTE® DENTURE BASE RESIN SYSTEM is composed of five resin formulations: a denture baseplate resin, contour resin, clear resin, clear resin, and resilient resin. The finished denture base is constructed from a laminate of these resins that are light cured. These new materials bypass the usual "lost wax" process and allow the dentist and technician to develop a trial denture that will become the final denture. It will not be necessary to fabricate a mold or "invest" the trial denture.

No
The summary describes a system of light-cured resins for fabricating dentures, focusing on material properties and a simplified manufacturing process. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven analysis.

No.
The device is used for the fabrication and repair of dentures and appliances, which are restorative rather than therapeutic in nature.

No
The device is a system of resins used for the fabrication, repair, and relining of dentures, appliances, and prostheses. Its intended use is for construction and repair, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is composed of five resin formulations and describes a process involving light curing and the construction of a physical denture base. This indicates a physical material and manufacturing process, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the fabrication, repair, and relining of dentures, appliances, and prostheses. This is a direct interaction with the patient's body (or a physical representation of it) for a structural purpose, not for analyzing a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a system of resins used to build a physical dental appliance. It doesn't mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Measuring biomarkers or analytes
    • Using reagents or assays

IVDs are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The Trubyte® Denture Base Resin System is a material used to create a physical dental device.

§ 872.3760 Denture relining, repairing, or rebasing resin.

(a)
Identification. A denture relining, repairing, or rebasing resin is a device composed of materials such as methylmethacrylate, intended to reline a denture surface that contacts tissue, to repair a fractured denture, or to form a new denture base. This device is not available for over-the-counter (OTC) use.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Image /page/0/Picture/0 description: The image shows a close-up of a textured, dark surface that curves along the top and right side, contrasting with a bright white background. The texture appears granular and dense, creating a stark visual contrast between the dark, rough area and the smooth, empty space. The curve suggests the edge of a three-dimensional object or a portion of a larger design.

It will not be necessary to fabricate a mold or "invest" the trial denture.

INTENDED USE: 1) Fabrication of dentures, appliances and prostheses; 2) Repair of dentures, appliances and prostheses; and 3) Relining of denture surfaces

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS: All of the components found in the Resins of the TRUBYTE® DENTURE BASE RESIN SYSTEM have been used in legally marketed devices or were found safe for dental use.

The TRUBYTE® DENTURE BASE RESIN SYSTEM resilient resin, uncured and cured, have been evaluated and passed biocompatibility testing for cytotoxicity, mutagenicity, irritation, and sensitization.

We believe that the prior use of the components of TRUBYTE® DENTURE BASE RESIN SYSTEM in legally marketed devices and the biocompatibility data provided support the safety and effectiveness of TRUBYTE® DENTURE BASE RESIN SYSTEM for the indicated uses.
