Intended Use
The pressable ceramic pellets are pressed onto zirconia frames by dental technicians to fabricate full ceramic crowns and the ceramic layering porcelain and liquids are used to build up the pressed ceramic to final tooth morphology and shade. The ceramic layering porcelain and liquids are also used in building ceramic crowns and bridges on titanium and titanium alloy substructures. Both applications are to provise protheses for missing / damaged teeth.
Device Description
The InSync Ceramic System consists of pressable silica based ceramic pellets and silica based ceramic layering porcelain and liquids.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a system of ceramic materials and liquids used for fabricating dental prostheses, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML.

No.
The device is used to fabricate dental prostheses, which replace missing or damaged teeth, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition.

No

The device is a ceramic system used by dental technicians to fabricate prostheses for missing/damaged teeth. It is a restorative material, not a device used to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the device consists of "pressable silica based ceramic pellets and silica based ceramic layering porcelain and liquids," 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 to fabricate dental prostheses (crowns and bridges) for missing/damaged teeth. This is a restorative dental application, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples in vitro.
  • Device Description: The device consists of ceramic materials used for fabrication. These are materials used to build a physical structure, not reagents or instruments used to analyze biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

The device is clearly intended for the fabrication of dental prostheses, which falls under the category of medical devices used for treatment and restoration, not diagnosis.

Data has been presented to demonstrate that the respective composition, mechanical properties, chemical qualities, and the indications for use make the InSync Ceramic System substantially cquivalent to the predicate devices Willi Geller Creation CP-Zi and Ceramics 2in1porcelains The safety and effectiveness of the InSync Ceramic System, being determined by the shared chemical qualities and mechanical properties, is therefore equivalent to the predicate devices. Independantly, the InSync Ceramic System meets the applicable sections of concensus standards ISO 9693 and ISO 6872.

§ 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.
