No
The device description focuses solely on the material composition and manufacturing process of dental zirconia blanks, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No.
The device is a material (zirconia blanks) used to manufacture dental restorations, not a therapeutic device itself.
No
This device is a material (zirconia blanks) used to fabricate substructures for dental restorations. It does not perform any diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly describes physical zirconia blanks used for manufacturing dental restorations, 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 clearly stated as a "substructure for ceramic dental restorations." This is a material used to create a physical dental appliance, not a test performed on a biological sample to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The description details the material composition and manufacturing process of the zirconia blanks. It focuses on the physical properties and how they are used to create dental restorations. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not include any elements typically associated with IVDs, such as:
- Analysis of biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detection or measurement of analytes
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions.
The device is a material used in the manufacturing of dental prosthetics, which falls under the category of dental devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

Device Description
Zircar Zirconia Blanks, Type BYZ, are high purity, bisque fired zirconia machining blanks. The powders pressed to form these blanks are of a uniform size and well dispersed, ensuring no agglomerates. The resultant fine grained, bisque body allows intricate shapes to be machined with tight tolerances. BYZ blanks are phase stabilized with 3 mol% yttria and therefore do not undergo the usual phase transitions associated with pure zirconia. This phase transformation "toughens" the zirconia and stops crack propagation, yielding high fracture toughness and high strength. The highest purity powders are used to make Type BYZ minimizing trace oxides. Type BYZ is 99.9 wt% ZrO2 + Y203 + HfO2 + Al2O3. The natural zirconia minerals HfO2, which is so similar in structure and chemical properties to zirconia, that it has no effect on product properties. A small addition of alumina minimizes hydrothermal aging.
Zircar Zirconia Blanks, Type BYZ, are dental ceramic blanks designed for the manufacturing of substructures for ceramic dental appliances. The dental appliance is machined either by CAD/CAM machining or using the copying technique. Products are either porous or dense. Porous blanks are then sintered to full density and strength. Dense blanks do not need a final heat treatment and are therefore ready for veneering immediately after machining. All appliances are for the sole use of the particular patient only. At the dental lab, a metal chuck is glued on the end of blank that holds it in the CAD/CAM machine which is used to machine the final dental restoration. At he completion of the machining steps, the dental restoration is fired (i.e., sintered) in the oven to harden the ZrO2.

§ 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.

Safety and Effectiveness:
By definition, a device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device when the device has the same intended use and the same technological characteristics as the previously cleared predicate device, or has the same intended use and different
2
technological characteristics. But, it can be demonstrated that the device is as safe and effective as the predicate device and the new device does not raise different questions regarding safety and effectiveness as compared to the predicate device.
As such, it has been shown in this 510(k) submission, that the differences between the Bisque Zirconia Blanks, Type BYZ and the predicate devices do not raise any questions regarding their safety and effectiveness.
The Bisque Zirconia Blanks, Type BYZ, as designed and manufactured are as safe and effective as the predicate device and therefore are determined to be substantially equivalent to the referenced predicate device.

Dear Mr. Goldman:
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.
