Intended Use
PMMA BLOCK particularly suitable for making removable or temporary dental structures such as crowns and bridges using milling technology using CAD/CAM. Indications for Use: - Temporary anterior and posterior crowns; - Temporary anterior and posterior bridges; - Implant surgical guide; - Removable structures for dentures; - Removable structures for therapeutic restorations (night guards, bite splints or occlusal splints).
Device Description
PMMA BLOCK is a circular solid (disc) or rectangular solid (block) of PMMA with or without post attachment for use in a CAD/CAM milling machine for production of provisional restorative prostheses such as dental crowns and bridges and removable dental structures. These blocks are available in a variety of shapes for different milling systems and are also available in variety of dental shades. PMMA BLOCK are made with the same material (Hot cured PMMA) that is used for the manufacture of the HUGE Synthetic Polymer Teeth (K101029) and HUGE PMMA Block(K141421). These polymer discs or blocks are especially suited for creating dental structures by means of milling CAD/CAM techniques commonly used in the dental laboratories and in dental practice. The elaboration is designed by a professional, a dental technician or a dentist. This guarantees their correct use, since it is an intermediate product in order to manufacture a custom-made product.
More Information

No
The device is a material (PMMA block) used in a CAD/CAM milling process. The description focuses on the material properties and its use in traditional dental fabrication techniques, with no mention of AI or ML for design, analysis, or processing.

Yes
The device is used to create removable structures for therapeutic restorations like night guards, bite splints, and occlusal splints, which are used to treat or prevent conditions like bruxism or temporomandibular joint disorders.

No

Explanation: The device, PMMA BLOCK, is described as a material for creating dental structures like crowns, bridges, and night guards using CAD/CAM milling technology. Its purpose is to manufacture custom-made products, not to diagnose medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device is a physical block of PMMA material used in a CAD/CAM milling machine to create dental prostheses. It is a hardware component, 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 create temporary or removable dental structures (crowns, bridges, dentures, splints) using milling technology. This is a manufacturing process for a medical device that will be placed in the mouth.
  • Device Description: The device is a block of PMMA material used as an intermediate product in the creation of custom-made dental prostheses.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to diagnose a disease or condition, or to provide information about a patient's health status based on in vitro examination of specimens.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This PMMA block is a material used to fabricate a dental prosthesis, which is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.

9. Summary of Biocompatibility

The new device, PMMA BLOCK, is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices that have been on the market for years and with no clinical adverse events. The formulation of new device does not contain any new or non-conventional chemicals compared to the legally marketed predicate device.

We selected our PMMA BLOCK (Model: Multilayer; Specification: 98×20mm; Shade: A4) as the representative in biocompatibility tests and those biocompatibility test reports can be used in the biological evaluation of PMMA BLOCK.

Biocompatibility tests were performed to satisfied the ISO 10993 standards. The test items include Systemic Toxicity; Irritation; Sensitization; Cytotoxicity; In Vitro Mammalian Cell TK Gene Mutation Test; In Vitro mammalian chromosome aberration test and Bacterial reverse mutation study.

10. Clinical Performance Data

Not applicable. Clinical performance testing has not been performed for the subject device.

11. Summary of Substantial Equivalence

As with the comparison shown in substantial equivalence discussion, these devices are same or similar in almost all aspects. In addition, the new device adds indications for use of night guards compared to the predicate device which falls into the last intended use of removable structures for therapeutic restorations. The details of physical properties are slightly different, but these two devices are in compliance with the ISO 10477, ISO 20795-1 and ISO 22112.

It can be seen that the minor differences between the new device and the predicate device are not of significance and do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness as compared to the predicate device. We conclude that our PMMA BLOCK is substantially equivalent to the predicate device described herein.
