Device Description
Adhese Universal DC is a dual-curing, single-component dental adhesive for enamel and dentin that is compatible with all etching techniques (self-etch, selective enamel etch, etch & rinse techniques). The areas of application include adhesive cementation of indirect restorations and direct restorative procedures. Adhese Universal DC is available in Free Stand Single Dose units. The applicator is coated with co-initiators required for the self-curing reaction. The initiator and adhesive are mixed together by dipping the applicator into the single dose unit containing the liquid Adhese Universal DC.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and chemical composition of a dental adhesive, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
The device is a dental adhesive used for binding materials to tooth structure, which is a restorative rather than therapeutic function.

No

Explanation: The device, Adhese Universal DC, is a dental adhesive used for restorative procedures, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Its intended use is to bond dental restorations.

No

The device description clearly states it is a dental adhesive, which is a physical material, not software. The performance studies also focus on physical properties like shear bond strength.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "Missing tooth structure" and "Defective restorations," which are clinical conditions related to dental treatment.
  • Device Description: The device is a dental adhesive used for bonding restorations to enamel and dentin. This is a material used directly in the mouth for treatment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside the body to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease. The performance studies focus on physical properties (shear bond strength) relevant to its function as a dental adhesive, not diagnostic accuracy.

IVDs are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to diagnose or monitor medical conditions. This device is a therapeutic material used to restore tooth structure.

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

Bench testing was performed to test the physical property (shear bond strength) included in the Finished Device Specification for the subject device according to EN ISO 1641:2009 -Dentistry- Medical devices for dentistry - Materials and ISO 29022- Dentistry - Adhesive -Notched-edge sheer bond strength test.
The specification for Adhese Universal DC describes lower values (20 MPa) for shear bond strength (dentin) compared to Adhese Universal (25 MPa) due to the self-curing mode of Adhese Universal DC which generally shows lower values.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Shear bond strength (Dentin) ≥20 MPa Self-curing

Dear Lori Aleshin:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal

Substantial Equivalence to the predicate:

Adhese Universal and Adhese Universal DC are both dental adhesives. The main difference between the two devices is that Adhese Universal is light-curing compared to Adhese Universal DC which is dual-curing. Therefore, Adhese Universal DC is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, Adhese Universal.

Differences:

The main difference between Adhese Universal and Adhese Universal DC is that the new device is dual-curing compared to the light-curing Adhese Universal. As the new device is dual-curing the chemical composition has been slightly adapted for Adhese Universal DC.

Non-clinical performance testing:

Bench testing was performed to test the physical property (shear bond strength) included in the Finished Device Specification for the subject device according to EN ISO 1641:2009 -Dentistry- Medical devices for dentistry - Materials and ISO 29022- Dentistry - Adhesive -Notched-edge sheer bond strength test.

Biocompatibility:

The subject device was also evaluated for Biocompatibility according to ISO 10993-1:2018, ISO 7405:2018 and ISO 14971:2012. Uncured Adhese Universal as well as extracts of polymerized Adhese Universal DC possess a cytotoxic potential in the XTT assay. The clinical experience with a previous generation of the product (Adhese Universal) indicates no adverse effect in clinical use. The product, particularly in the uncured state may cause sensitization against methacrylates. This is typical for all resin-based dental materials. On the basis of the clinical experience with a previous generation of the product it can be concluded that the products do not cause oral mucosal or gingival irritation. There is no material mediated pyrogenicity. According to the information available, the product have no acute nor subacute system toxicity. Subchronic or chronic toxicity is not expected. According to the data available Adhese Universal DC is not genotoxic nor carcinogenic. According to the current knowledge, it can be concluded that Adhese Universal DC does not cause adverse reactions upon implantation in teeth. Adhese Universal DC are expected not to cause pulp or dentine damage. There is no indication that toxic degradation products might be released during body contact.

On the basis of the toxicological evaluation of the product and the longstanding worldwide clinical use of similar materials it can be concluded that the benefits provided by the final product will exceed any potential risks produced by device materials providing that the instructions for use have been followed. The results of the Biocompatibility Assessment for Adhese Universal DC is substantially equivalent to the results of the Biocompatibility Assessment for the predicate device Adhese Universal.

Conclusion:

Adhese Universal and Adhese Universal DC are both dental adhesives. The main difference between the two devices is that Adhese Universal is light-curing compared to Adhese Universal DC which is dual-curing. The indications / contraindications are basically the same. The device performance is substantially equivalent. The biocompatibility and storage stability of the new formulation was fully assessed and is substantially equivalent to Adhese Universal.

Therefore, Adhese Universal DC is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, Adhese Universal.
