More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a dental ceramic veneering material and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No.
The device is a dental ceramic veneering material used in prosthodontics, which is a material used to build or restore a structure, rather than a device intended to directly treat or cure a disease or condition.

No

The device is described as a dental ceramic veneering material for fixed prosthodontics devices. It does not perform any diagnostic function; rather, it is a material for manufacturing restoration devices.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "dental ceramic veneering material" and lists physical components like "Dentin/Transparent/Incisal porcelain," "Liner/Opaque porcelain," etc. This indicates it is a physical material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The device is designed for use on zirconia restorations in the mouth (anterior and posterior teeth). This is a dental material used for fabricating or repairing dental prosthetics.
  • Device Description: The description details a dental ceramic veneering material consisting of different types of porcelain. This aligns with a material used in dental laboratories or clinics for creating dental restorations.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue samples, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological or pathological state, or a congenital abnormality, or to determine the compatibility with potential recipients, or to monitor therapeutic measures. The provided description does not mention any of these activities.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the mouth/teeth, which is where the dental restoration is placed, not where a specimen is collected for in vitro testing.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device (K022796 Cercon® Ceram S Porcelains) is also a dental porcelain material, further supporting that this device falls under the category of dental materials, not IVDs.

In summary, the PFZ™ PORCELAIN SYSTEM is a dental material used for creating dental restorations, not a device used for testing biological specimens outside the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

All of the components have been used in legally marketed devices. PFZTM PORCELAIN was evaluated and passed biocompatibility testing for cytotoxicity.

We believe that the prior use of the components in legally markcted devices, the similarity in the formulations between the modified device and the marketed device, and the data provided regarding the modifications to the marketed device support the safety and effectiveness of the PFZTM PORCELAIN SYSTEM for the intended use.

Dear Mr. Lehn:

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.

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 vour device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613.
