The summary describes a dental ceramic material and its application process, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
No
The device is a dental ceramic veneering material used to veneer zirconium oxide substructures for fixed prosthodontics devices, not a therapeutic device.
No
The document describes a dental ceramic system intended for veneering zirconia substructures in fixed prosthodontic devices (crowns and bridges). Its purpose is to create the outer layer of a restoration, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "dental ceramic veneering material" and a "glass/glass-ceramic mixture," indicating a physical material, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for veneering zirconia substructures in dental restorations (crowns and bridges). This is a dental material used for fabricating a medical device (the restoration), not for testing samples from the human body to diagnose or monitor a medical condition.
- Device Description: The description details a ceramic material and a process for applying it to a dental substructure. This aligns with a dental restorative material, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a dental material used in the fabrication of a dental prosthesis, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 872.6660 Porcelain powder for clinical use.
(a)
Identification. Porcelain powder for clinical use is a device consisting of a mixture of kaolin, felspar, quartz, or other substances intended for use in the production of artificial teeth in fixed or removable dentures, of jacket crowns, facings, and veneers. The device is used in prosthetic dentistry by heating the powder mixture to a high temperature in an oven to produce a hard prosthesis with a glass-like finish.(b)
Classification. Class II.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION: The CERCON® CERAM EXPRESS Ceramic System consists of a dental ceramic veneering material developed for veneering zirconium oxide substructures for fixed prosthodontics devices that include both anterior and posterior crowns and bridges. The modified device is a glass/glass-ceramic mixture used to veneer zirconia substrates in a medium-pressure. lost-wax injection molding (pressing) process. The modified device consists of a translucent material and an opaque material.
INTENDED USE: Designed for use on zirconia (zirconium oxide) in single tooth or bridge type restorations. Applications include tooth anterior and posterior locations.
TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS: CERCON® CERAM EXPRESS Ceramic System represents a modification to Cercon® Ceram S Porcelains (K022796). Changes have been made to the device's formulation, material form, and processing technique.
All of the components found in CERCON® CERAM EXPRESS Ceramic System have been used in legally marketed devices.
We believe that the prior use of the components of CERCON® CERAM EXPRESS Ceramic System in legally marketed devices, the similarity in the formulations between the modified and the marketed device, and the data provided regarding the modifications to the marketed device support the safety and effectiveness of CERCON® CERAM EXPRESS Ceramic 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 vour 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.
