The 510(k) summary describes a system of ceramic materials and techniques for fabricating dental prostheses. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any other components typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The performance studies focus on material properties and biocompatibility, not algorithmic performance.
No
The device is used to fabricate prostheses for missing/damaged teeth, which are restorative, not therapeutic.
No
The DCceram System is used to fabricate prostheses for missing/damaged teeth from ceramic materials and is not involved in the diagnosis of any condition. Its purpose is restorative, not diagnostic.
No
The device description clearly states the system consists of "several silica glass ceramic materials" and "porcelain ingots," which are physical materials, not software. The performance studies also focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of these materials.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "fabricate prostheses for missing/damaged teeth." This is a manufacturing process for a medical device (dental prostheses), not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
- Device Description: The device consists of ceramic materials used to create dental restorations. These are materials used in the creation of a physical device, not reagents or instruments used to analyze biological samples.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific markers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health condition.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of the materials used to create the prostheses, not on the accuracy or reliability of a diagnostic test.
IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The DCceram System is used to create a device that will be placed in vivo (inside the body).

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The DCceram System is used to fabricate prostheses for missing/damaged teeth. The DCceram pressable ceramic ingots are pressed onto metal alloy (DCceram 12.5) or zirconia (DCceram 9.2) frames by dental technicians to fabricate ceramic restorations. DCceram 12.5 and DCceram 9.2 ceramic layering porcelains and shades are used to layer or build up the pressed ceramic to final tooth morphology and shade on the particular framework (DCceram 9.2 zirconia substructures; Dcceram 12.5 metal substructures). The DCceram conceptPress ceramic ingots are used to fabricate all-ceramic restorations. DCceram conceptArt ceramic stains and shades may be used with DCceram conceptPress or DCceram 9.2 ceramics.

Device Description
The DCceram System consists of several silica glass ceramic materials used to create ceramic and/or metal-ceramic dental prosthetic dental restorations, including inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns and bridges. The DCceram System components are available in a wide range of tooth shades (A1 – D4) as well as special shades. All DCceram System materials meet the physical properties requirements defined in ISO 6872:2008 Dentistry - Ceramic Materials, and are biocompatible as defined in ISO 7405:2008 Dentistry - Evaluation of biocompatibility of medical devices used in dentistry.
The DCceram System components are:
DCceram 9.2 & 12.5 pressable porcelain ingots 0
DCceram conceptPress porcelain ingots 0
DCceram9.2 liner/layering porcelain 0
DCceram 12.5 liner/layering porcelain o
DCceram12.5 stains and shades 0
DCceram conceptArt stains, shades and glazes o
The DCceram9.2 and 12.5 ingots are silicate glass-based ceramic materials designed to create dental restorations using a lost wax technique in a vacuum press. DCceram 9.2 ingots are used with zirconia frameworks; DCceram 12.5 is compatible with metal (dental alloy) frameworks. The DCceram conceptPress ingots are used to create all-ceramic dental restorations. The complete DCceram System also includes a full line of compatible liner, build-up, layering and veneering ceramics. All system materials are available in a range of tooth shades.

Indications for Use
The DCceram System is used to fabricate prostheses for missing/damaged teeth. The DCceram pressable ceramic ingots are pressed onto metal alloy (DCceram 12.5) or zirconia (DCceram 9.2) frames by dental technicians to fabricate ceramic restorations. DCceram 12.5 and DCceram 9.2 ceramic layering porcelains and shades are used to layer or build up the pressed ceramic to final tooth morphology and shade on the particular framework (DCceram 9.2 zirconia substructures; Dcceram 12.5 metal substructures). The DCceram conceptPress ceramic ingots are used to fabricate all-ceramic restorations. DCceram conceptArt ceramic stains and shades may be used with DCceram conceptPress or DCceram 9.2 ceramics.
Device Description
The DCceram System consists of several silica glass ceramic materials used to create ceramic and/or metal-ceramic dental prosthetic dental restorations, including inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns and bridges. The DCceram System components are available in a wide range of tooth shades (A1 – D4) as well as special shades. All DCceram System materials meet the physical properties requirements defined in ISO 6872:2008 Dentistry - Ceramic Materials, and are biocompatible as defined in ISO 7405:2008 Dentistry - Evaluation of biocompatibility of medical devices used in dentistry.
The DCceram System components are:
- DCceram 9.2 & 12.5 pressable porcelain ingots 0
- DCceram conceptPress porcelain ingots 0
- DCceram9.2 liner/layering porcelain 0
- DCceram 12.5 liner/layering porcelain o
- DCceram12.5 stains and shades 0
- DCceram conceptArt stains, shades and glazes o
The DCceram9.2 and 12.5 ingots are silicate glass-based ceramic materials designed to create dental restorations using a lost wax technique in a vacuum press. DCceram 9.2 ingots are used with zirconia frameworks; DCceram 12.5 is compatible with metal (dental alloy) frameworks. The DCceram conceptPress ingots are used to create all-ceramic dental restorations. The complete DCceram System also includes a full line of compatible liner, build-up, layering and veneering ceramics. All system materials are available in a range of tooth shades.
Substantial Equivalence
The DCceram System is substantially equivalent to the Jensen Dental InSync Ceramic System (K111743), which is comprised of a full range of pressable, silica-based ceramic pellets and compatible layering porcelains used with zirconia and metal alloy frameworks, the Willi Geller CP L&M Porcelain (K002904), which is used with metal alloy frameworks, and to the Jeneric/Pentron OPC 3G All-Ceramic System (K994435), which includes pressable silica-based pellets and compatible layering porcelains used to create all-ceramic restorations. Substantial equivalence is based on indications for use, technological characteristics, material composition, usage techniques and conformity with consensus standards.
Testing
This 510(k) includes the results of performance testing to support compliance with ISO 6872:2008; these tests included coefficient of thermal expansion, transformation temperature, bending strength, chemical solubility and radioactivity for the DCceram System materials that are considered Type I or Type II, Class 1a materials per ISO 6872:2008. The DCceram conceptPress porcelain ingots are a Type II, Class 4b material per ISO 6872; testing for this system component consisted of coefficient of thermal expansion, transformation temperature,

bending strength, Weibull strength/modulus, fracture toughness, Martens hardness, chemical solubility and radioactivity. All DCceram System components met the minimum performance testing requirements specified in ISO 6872; where applicable (CTE, transformation temperature) the performance testing data has been incorporated into the device labelling.
The DCceram System materials were evaluated for biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 7405 and ISO 10993-5. This 510(k) includes the results of ISO 10993-5 cytotoxicity testing, which demonstrated that the DCceram System components are non-cytotoxic.
Conclusion
The DCceram System has been demonstrated to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
