Intended Use
SURPASS™ is a universal adhesive system that when properly employed, can be used to seal enamel/dentin prior to restoring with light-cured composite materials. Also, in situations of indirect restorations, the bonding system can be used to seal a preparation when using a light-cured, self-cured or dual-cured composite cement or glass ionomer or resinmodified glass ionomer cement. In addition, the system allows the dentist to bond a post and core, along with the use to treat hypersensitive and/or exposed root surfaces. Indications For Use: - Restorations: to seal enamel/dentin prior to restoring with light-cured or self-cured composite materials. - Indirect Restorations: to seal a preparation when using a light-cured, self-cured or dual-cured composite cement or glass ionomer or resin-modified glass ionomer cement. - Desensitization: to treat hypersensitive and/or exposed root surfaces. - To bond in a post and core.
Device Description
SURPASS™ is a light cured (free radical polymerization), self-etching dental adhesive system. designed to provide a dentist with an increased ease of use that is less technique sensitive. The bonding system combines both the etchant and primer applications into one simple step followed by a thin layer of unfilled bonding resin. Thus, allowing for more predictable clinical results without sacrificing bond strength integrity. SURPASS™ 2 is an ethanol-based adhesive that is dependent on the prepared surface of its conditioner (SURPASS™ 1). This acidic conditioner application is a procedure that is very similar to the phosphoric acid etching process of dentin/enamel substrate in the ECLIPTOMER (510K number K945604, Bisco, Inc.) system. Applying the SURPASS™ 2 (adhesive resin) directly to the conditioner prepared surface, assures proper moistness on the bonding interface, resulting in a reliable simplified bonding protocol. Once SURPASS™ 2 has been dried a thin layer of SURPASS™ 3 is applied to the SURPASS™ 2 surface and light cured for 20 seconds. The SURPASS™ 3 acts as a superior tie layer between SURPASS™2 and the filling material of choice.
More Information

No
The device description and intended use focus on the chemical composition and application process of a dental adhesive system, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is described as an adhesive system for dental restorations and to treat hypersensitive root surfaces, not as a therapeutic device.

No

The device is an adhesive system used for sealing and bonding dental materials, and for treating hypersensitive root surfaces. Its intended uses are therapeutic/restorative, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly describes a chemical adhesive system with multiple components (SURPASS™ 1, SURPASS™ 2, SURPASS™ 3) that are applied to dental surfaces and light-cured. This is a physical product, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • SURPASS™ Function: The description of SURPASS™ clearly indicates it is a dental adhesive system used to bond materials to teeth (enamel/dentin) and treat hypersensitivity. It is applied directly to the patient's teeth and is part of a restorative or desensitization procedure.
  • No Sample Analysis: There is no mention of SURPASS™ being used to analyze a sample taken from the body to provide diagnostic information.

Therefore, SURPASS™ is a dental device used for therapeutic and restorative purposes, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

  • Restorations: to seal enamel/dentin prior to restoring with light-cured or self-cured composite materials.
  • Indirect Restorations: to seal a preparation when using a light-cured, self-cured or dual-cured composite cement or glass ionomer or resin-modified glass ionomer cement.
  • Desensitization: to treat hypersensitive and/or exposed root surfaces.

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

SURPASS™ has similar handling to the ECLIPTOMER (510K number K945604, Bisco, Inc.) adhesive system. From the physical testing observations and analysis, including shear bond strength to dentin and enamel, we suggest that SURPASS™ is substantially equivalent to ECLIPTOMER (510K number K945604, Bisco, Inc.). Along with this we would suggest the individual components of SURPASS™ are long-time industry standards and are utilized in numerous dental bonding systems currently marketed in the United States. In addition, SURPASS™ is essentially our Simplicity® Adhesive System (510K: K020570) with an added bonding resin (SURPASS™ 3). SURPASS™ has the same indication for use and same base composition as the Simplicity® Adhesive System (510K: K020570).

Dear Mr. Kulton:

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.
