Tizian Ceramic is a glass ceramic material, colored to match the VITAPAN® color system. It is used for the ceramic coating of titanium and titanium alloys as well as zirconium dioxide-based frame materials. Tizian Zr Blanks are produced of yttrium oxide-stabilized tetragonal zirconium dioxide in several different sizes for the production of full ceramic crowns, bridges and inlays.
Device Description
Tizian Ceramic is a glass ceramic material, colored to match the VITAPAN® color system. It is used for the ceramic coating of titanium and titanium alloys as well as zirconium dioxide-based frame materials. Tizian guarantees an easy and reliable treatment without the need for long-term cooling. Tizian Blanks are composed of tetragonal zirconium dioxide stabilized with yttrium oxide. They are available in different sizes and permit the production of ceramic crowns and bridges. The material is partially sintered and can be processed using copy milling as well as CAD/CAM procedures.

The summary describes dental materials (ceramic and zirconium dioxide blanks) and their intended use in dental restorations. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would typically incorporate AI/ML. The description focuses on the material properties and processing methods (copy milling, CAD/CAM), which are standard dental laboratory techniques.

No

The device is a material used for dental restorations (ceramic coating, crowns, bridges), which is a device component rather than a therapeutic device that directly treats a condition.

No
Explanation: The provided text describes dental materials (glass ceramic and zirconium dioxide) used for coatings, crowns, bridges, and inlays. It does not mention any function related to diagnosing a disease, condition, or state of health.

No

The device description clearly states it is a glass ceramic material and zirconium dioxide blanks, which are physical materials, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The description clearly states that Tizian Ceramic and Tizian Zr Blanks are materials used for creating dental restorations (coatings, crowns, bridges, inlays). They are materials that become part of a medical device (the dental restoration), not devices used to test or analyze biological samples.
  • The intended use is for dental restoration. The text describes the materials' purpose in creating dental prosthetics, which are implanted or placed in the mouth. This is a different category of medical device than an IVD.

The description focuses on the material composition and its use in manufacturing dental devices, not on analyzing biological samples for diagnostic purposes.

Device Description

Tizian Ceramic is a glass ceramic material, colored to match the VITAPAN® color system. It is used for the ceramic coating of titanium and titanium alloys as well as zirconium dioxide-based frame materials. Tizian guarantees an easy and reliable treatment without the need for long-term cooling.

Opaques for titanium and titanium alloys are prepared as follows: No additional bonder is necessary, as the opaque's unique structural condition already acts as a seal for the titanium suface. A strong and reliable bond is created between the metal and the dental ceramics material. The opaque liguid is added to the opaque powder and mixed until the desired consistency is reached. A thin layer of opaquer is applied so that almost the entire surface is coated after the first opaque firing. Best results are achieved when coating approximately 70 % of the metal frame material. This optimum surface area must be reached by the end of the second opaque firing. After firing the opaque appears shiny.

The shoulder material is applied to the shoulders of the rough-textured material in a thin laver insulating it. The required shoulder material powder and liquid is mixed to the shoulder. It is riffled lightly until solid, excess liquid is extracted and the material is dried thoroughly.

A number of different liners for zirconium oxide frames ensures that the correct tooth colorant is already applied to the zirconium oxide frame during the first processing step. The liner is mixed with the modelling liquid to the desired consistency, then it is applied evenly onto the frame. If second liner firing is necessary, the above process must be repeated.

To ensure that the colorant stabilizes from within the material, it is recommended to apply opaque dentin in numerous layers to a smaller tooth form. The opaque dentin, dentin, incisal and transparent mixtures are mixed with modelling fluid to the desired consistency. Then, they are applied in small amounts to the cervical and interndental areas and vibrated lightly until solid. Next, the desired mixtures are applied in layers to the tooth surface. Once this has been done, the solidifying process is stopped and the material is cleaned carefully, removing any loose particles with a suction extractor. If further firings are required, the above process is repeated.

When using glazing materials or stains, they are mixed with the paint liquid to the desired consistency, then applied to the ceramic surface.

Tizian Zr Blanks are composed of tetragonal zirconium dioxide stabilized with yttrium oxide. They are available in different sizes and permit the production of ceramic crowns and bridges. The material is partially sintered and can be processed using copy milling as well as CAD/CAM procedures.

The blanks are suited to the production of primary conus and telescope crowns, crown and bridge worksin front and side tooth areas, abufments and inlays.

§ 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.
