Intended Use
Classic and Speed Sintering: Fully anatomic crowns and bridges in the posterior and anterior tooth region. Bridges with max. two pontics. Super Speed Sintering: Fully anatomic crowns.
Device Description
The inCoris TZI are blocks of various sizes from which custom made dental restorations are grinded using Sirona CAD/CAM system. inCoris TZI ceramics constitute blocks comprised of zirconia ceramics (Zr)2). The blocks are initially manufactured in a partially sintered state; then, they are individually processed to specification, and finally, densely sintered. One end plane of a block is mounted to a metal carrier that is inserted in the spindle's clamping chuck of the grinding machine. Grinded restorations are colored by dipping the restoration in color liquid prior final sintering.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a dental restoration material (zirconia blocks) and the process of grinding and sintering them. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No
This device is a dental material (zirconia blocks) used to create dental restorations, not a device that provides therapy or treats a disease.

No

The device is described as blocks of zirconia ceramics used to grind custom-made dental restorations. Its intended use is for creating crowns and bridges. This functionality is for manufacturing or restorative purposes, not for diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a block of zirconia ceramics, which is a physical material, not software. The process involves grinding and sintering this physical block.

Based on the provided information, 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.
  • Device Function: The inCoris TZI blocks are used to create custom dental restorations (crowns and bridges) that are placed in the patient's mouth. They are a material used for fabrication, not a test performed on a biological sample.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the creation of dental restorations for the posterior and anterior tooth region. This is a restorative dental procedure, not a diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description details the material composition and the process of grinding and sintering to create the physical restoration. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, the inCoris TZI is a dental material used for fabricating restorations, which falls under the category of a medical device, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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)

5. Device Description and Function

The inCoris TZI are blocks of various sizes from which custom made dental restorations are grinded using Sirona CAD/CAM system. inCoris TZI ceramics constitute blocks comprised of zirconia ceramics (Zr)2). The blocks are initially manufactured in a partially sintered state; then, they are individually processed to specification, and finally, densely sintered. One end plane of a block is mounted to a metal carrier that is inserted in the spindle's clamping chuck of the grinding machine. Grinded restorations are colored by dipping the restoration in color liquid prior final sintering.

6. Scientific Concept

The underlying scientific concept is

  • . Processing dental restorations by Sirona Dental CAD/CAM System
  • . Restorations are grinded from an inCoris TZI block by a Sirona CAM machine
  • . Different sintering time to gain appropriate material properties

7. Physical and Performance Characteristics

7.1. Design

The design of the inCoris TZI is described in section 5, Device Description and Function.

7.2. Material Used

inCoris TZI ceramics constitute blocks comprised of zirconia ceramics (ZrO2). One end plane of a block is mounted to a metal carrier that is inserted in the spindle's clamping chuck of the grinding machine. The material is biocompatible according to ISO 10993-11: 2009, "Biological evaluation of medical devices -- Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process".

7.3. Physical Properties

8. Summary of the technological characteristics

Sirona inCoris TZI and Glidewell's Prismatik™ Clinical Zirconia (Prismatik™ CZ) are made of zirconia ceramics' (ZrO2). inCoris TZI is block shaped whereas Glidewell's Prismatik™ Clinical Zirconia is disk shaped.

Both devices meet ISO 6872: 2008, "Dentistry -- Ceramic materials" and ISO 13356: 2008, "Implants for surgery, Ceramic materials based on yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP)". Physical and chemical properties are similar.

9. Nonclinical Testing

Sintering tests have been performed which show that the mechanical properties are appropriate for the indications for use.

10. Clinical Testing

Clinical tests have not been performed.

11. Conclusion

Based on the comparison of intended use, indications, contra-indications, material properties and processing/fabrication, Sirona Dental Systems believes that the InCoris TZI blocks are substantially equivalent to Glidewell's Prismatik™M Clinical Zirconia (Prismatik™ CZ) (K060104).
