Device Description
Amann Girrbach AG Ceramill® Zolid HT+ white is an all-ceramic core dental material made of Yttria-Stabilized Zirconium Oxide (zirconia, YSZ). It is provided as a disk shape (U-shape or round-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. 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 description focuses on the material properties and manufacturing process of a dental prosthetic blank, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
This device is a material used for manufacturing dental prosthetics, which are considered medical devices but not therapeutic in themselves; they are restorative.

No

Explanation: The device is a material (zirconium-oxide blanks) used for fabricating dental prosthetics, which is a treatment rather than a diagnostic tool. Its function is to create physical restorations, not to identify or characterize diseases or conditions.

No

The device is a physical material (zirconium-oxide blanks) used for dental prosthetics, not a software program.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for creating permanent and removable dental prosthetics. This is a structural and restorative application within the body, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a material (zirconium-oxide blanks) used to fabricate dental prosthetics. It is processed and then placed in the patient's mouth.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing information for the diagnosis of a disease or condition.
  • User and Setting: The intended user is a dental technician, and the setting is likely a dental lab or clinic, focused on fabrication and restoration.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not fit that description.

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

Bench tests confirm that product specifications of the modified device Ceramill® Zolid HT+ white are met. These are equivalent to those of the predicate device. The biocompatibility testing confirm that the modified device Ceramill® Zolid HT+ white is as biocompatible as the predicate. The testing results support that the new zirconia material does not affectiveness of the device as compared to the zirconia material of the unmodified device. Verification testing of the modified device Ceramill® Zolid HT+ white, in accordance with design controls, demonstrated the device meets user needs. Verification testing was performed to the following:

  • ISO 6872:2015 - Dentistry - Ceramic Materials
  • . ISO 13356:2015 - Implants for surgery. Ceramic materials based on yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP)
  • ISO 7405:2008 - Dentistry -- Evaluation of biocompatibility of medical devices used in dentistry
  • EN 1641:2009 - Dentistry. Medical devices for dentistry. Materials
  • ISO 10993-1:2009 – 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: Tests for in vitro cytotoxicity
  • . ISO 10993-18:2005 - Biological evaluation of medical devices -- Part 18: Chemical characterization of materials
    The device passed all testing and is determined to be substantially equivalent to the unmodified Ceramill® ZI device.
    There was no human clinical testing required to support the medical device as the intended use is the same as the predicate device. These types of devices, including the predicate devices, have been used successfully for many years. The non-clinical testing detailed in this submission supports the substantial equivalence of the device.
