Intended Use
"Ceramill Zold FX" preshade are blanks made of zirconium oxide (ZrO2) for type II, class 5 dental applications in accordance with DIN EN ISO 6872. They are used for manufacturing permanent and removable prosthetic restorations (e.g., crowns and three-unit bridges to the molar region) using CNC milling machines (e.g., Ceramill Motion).
Device Description
Amann Girrbach AG "Ceramill Zolid FX" is an all-ceramic core dental material made of Yttria-Stabilized Zirconium Oxide (zirconia, YSZ). It is provided as a disk shape (U-shape). CAD/CAM fabrication of core material can then be used to produce copings and substrates for fixed all ceramic dental restorations above the gum line. The material is used for the manufacturing of permanent and removable prosthetic restorations (e.g. crowns and three-unit bridges to the molar region). The material is then fired in an oven to harden the ZrO2. The milling and final oven hardening is completed by the customer (the dental technician).
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a dental material (zirconia blanks) and its intended use in traditional CAD/CAM milling processes, with no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No
The device is a material (zirconium oxide blanks) used for manufacturing dental prosthetic restorations, not a therapeutic device itself. Its purpose is to replace missing teeth or parts of teeth, which is a restorative rather than a therapeutic function in the medical sense of treating a disease or disorder.

No

This device is a dental material (zirconium oxide blanks) used for manufacturing prosthetic restorations, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical material (zirconium oxide blanks) used for manufacturing dental restorations. It is 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 manufacturing permanent and removable prosthetic restorations (like crowns and bridges) for dental applications. This is a structural and restorative purpose, not for diagnosing a disease or condition.
  • Device Description: The device is a material (zirconium oxide blanks) used to create dental prosthetics. It's a component in the manufacturing process of a medical device (the dental restoration), not a device used to test samples from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information about a patient's health status based on such analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device falls under the category of a dental material used for fabrication, which is a different regulatory classification.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non-clinical testing was performed in order to validate the design against the Company's specified design requirements for physical and chemical properties, as well as flexural strength, and to assure conformance with the consensus design standard ISO 6872:2008. "Ceramill Zolid FX" is classified as Type II Class 5 esthetic dental ceramic.

The material complies with ANSI ADA Specification No. 69:2010, Dental Ceramic.

The "Ceramill Zolid FX" passed all testing stated above as shown by the acceptable results obtained.

The "Ceramill Zolid FX" complies with the applicable voluntary standards for demonstrating biocompatibility:

  • ISO 10993-1: 2010, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices --- Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a Risk Management Process
  • ISO 10993-5: 2009, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices --- Part 5: Test for In Vitro Cytotoxicity
  • ISO 10993-12: 2012, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 12: Samples preparation and reference materials
  • ISO 10993-18:2005, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 18: Chemical characterization of the materials
  • ISO 7405:2008, Second Edition, Dentistry Evaluation of biocompatibility of medical devices used in dentistry

Test results show that the extract of the test material caused no toxicological/biological cell damage or growth inhibition. The material is considered as non-cytotoxic and the extracts of the material did not contain organic or inorganic detectable substances.

The "Ceramill Zolid FX" complies with the applicable voluntary standard for risk management, ISO 14971:2007, Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices. The risk management activities verified that risks have been eliminated or reduced to acceptable levels from a benefit/risk assessment.

The "Ceramill Zolid FX" meets all the requirements for overall design and biocompatibility, and performance testing confirms that the output meets the design inputs and specifications.
