Intended Use
The Vertex Rapid Simplified is indicated for: 1. Fabrication of full dentures 2. Fabrication of partial dentures
Device Description
The Vertex hot-curing denture base material is a conventional dough pack heat cured denture base material that consists of polymethyl methacrylate powder with a heat cure monomer consisting of methyl methacrylate. This material complies with the requirements of ISO 1567, Dentistry. Denture base polymers. The pressing technique is the processing method for Vertex hot-curing denture base material. This cadmium-free acrylic has a rapid 20 minutes polymerization cycle (overnight polymerization is also possible). The Vertex hot-curing denture base powder is available in 10 shades.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description details a conventional heat-cured denture base material and its processing method, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a material used for fabricating dental prosthetics (dentures), not a therapeutic device that directly treats a medical condition. Its function is restorative (to replace missing teeth), not therapeutic.

No
The device is described as a material for fabricating dentures (full and partial) and is a conventional, heat-cured denture base material. Its intended use is for actual fabrication, not for diagnosing any medical condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "conventional dough pack heat cured denture base material" consisting of polymethyl methacrylate powder and methyl methacrylate monomer, which are physical materials, 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 the fabrication of full and partial dentures. This is a manufacturing process for a medical device (dentures), not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample to provide information about a patient's health.
  • Device Description: The device is a material (polymethyl methacrylate powder and methyl methacrylate monomer) used to create dentures. It's a raw material for fabrication, not a diagnostic reagent or instrument.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

§ 872.3760 Denture relining, repairing, or rebasing resin.

(a)
Identification. A denture relining, repairing, or rebasing resin is a device composed of materials such as methylmethacrylate, intended to reline a denture surface that contacts tissue, to repair a fractured denture, or to form a new denture base. This device is not available for over-the-counter (OTC) use.(b)
Classification. Class II.

materials have been used in leqally marketed devices and were found
safe for dental use. | 510(k) Number | Not yet assigned | K913655 | K081884 | |
| Substantial
Equivalence | The Vertex hot-curing denture base material is substantially equivalent
to the Probase Hot (K913655) and Major Base 20 (K081884), with
respect to mode of action and intended use. It is substantially equivalent
to the Probase Cold (K913655) and Major.Base 20 (K081884) denture
