Missing tooth structure in anterior and posterior teeth
Types of restorations:
-
Veneers
-
Inlays
-
Onlays (e.g. occlusal veneers, partial crowns)
-
Crowns
IPS e.max® One is a glass-ceramic block for the fabrication of fixed, full-contour single-tooth restorations in anterior and posterior teeth. IPS e.max One can be processed in milling machines and polished afterwards. A crystallization process is not necessary. The dentist starts with shade selection, preparation of the tooth based on guidelines for all-ceramic restorations, follow the recommended griding instruments and minimum layer thickness during finalizing and finishing, and finish with dental polishing.
Types of restorations: -Veneers -Inlays -Onlays (e.g. occlusal veneers, partial crowns) -Crowns
This document describes the premarket notification for the IPS e.max® One dental material. As such, it does not contain details of an AI/ML powered medical device. Therefore, the requested information on acceptance criteria, reader studies, and ground truth for an AI/ML device is not applicable and cannot be extracted from this document.
The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence of the IPS e.max® One to a predicate device, IPS e.max CAD (K051705), based on non-clinical performance testing and biocompatibility.
Here's the relevant information about the non-clinical performance testing:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and the Reported Device Performance:
| Performance Metric | Acceptance Criteria (Standard) | Reported Device Performance (Reference) |
|---|---|---|
| Flexural Strength | EN ISO 6872:2015 | Bench testing performed per standard |
| Linear Thermal Expansion | EN ISO 6872:2015 | Bench testing performed per standard |
| Chemical Solubility | EN ISO 6872:2015 | Bench testing performed per standard |
| Glass Transition Temperature | EN ISO 6872:2015 | Bench testing performed per standard |
| Radioactivity | EN ISO 6872:2015 | Bench testing performed per standard |
Note: The document states "Bench testing was performed... according to EN ISO 6872:2015" for these properties. It does not provide specific numerical results of the performance.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. This is a material test, not a test on a test set of data.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance: Not applicable.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable. The "ground truth" for material properties is defined by the standards and physical testing methodologies.
8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This is material testing, not an AI model.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
Biocompatibility:
The biocompatibility evaluation was performed according to ISO 10993-1:2009, ISO 7405:2018, and ISO 14971:2019. The evaluation concluded:
- Not cytotoxic
- No sensitizing potential for lithium disilicate glass-ceramic blocks (LS2)
- Does not induce oral mucosal irritation
- No potential for material-mediated pyrogenicity
- No risks for acute, sub-acute, sub-chronic toxicity
- Not genotoxic
- Negligible risk of carcinogenicity
- No direct contact to pulp or dentin.
Conclusion of the study:
The study concludes that IPS e.max® One is substantially equivalent to the predicate device IPS e.max CAD based on the non-clinical performance testing and biocompatibility assessment, despite differences in chemical composition and the elimination of a crystallization step for the new device. The new device covers similar indications (veneers, inlays, onlays, and crowns) but lacks the indication for bridges that the predicate device has.

Therefore, the performance criteria can be considered as substantially equivalent.
Substantial Equivalence to the predicate:
IPS e.max CAD and IPS e.max One are both millable blocks used for dental restorations. The products are both dental ceramic materials even though the chemical composition differs. The new device covers the indications offered by the predicate device but lacks the indications of bridges. Both blocks are milled in CAD/CAM milling machines. The predicate device needs to undergo a crystallization process after milling which is not needed for IPS e.max One.
Therefore, IPS e.max One is substantially equivalent to the predicate device IPS e.max CAD.
Differences:
The new device can be used for veneers, inlays, onlays and crowns (as explained under "working principle") like the predicate. In addition, the predicate IPS e.max CAD from K051705 can be used for bridges as well - this indication is lacking for the new device.
The working principle of the predicate and the new device is basically the same. Both devices are blocks milled in CAD/CAM milling machines, but the crystallization process is not needed for the new device IPS e.max One compared to the predicate.
The chemical composition is different. However, both devices are dental ceramic materials.
Non-clinical performance testing:
Bench testing was performed to test the physical properties included in the Finished Device Specification for the subject device including: flexural strength, linear thermal expansion (CTE), chemical solubility, glass transition temperature, and radioactivity according to EN ISO 6872:2015- Dentistry - Ceramic materials (ISO 6872:2015).
Biocompatibility:
The subject device was also evaluated for Biocompatibility according to ISO 10993-1:2009, ISO 7405:2018 and ISO 14971:2019. The biological evaluation was performed based on toxicological data on relevant component materials / compounds, information on prior use of relevant component materials / compounds, data from biological tests, data on the history of clinical use or human exposure. On the basis of the information included in the biological evaluation report it can be concluded that the extract of the product is not cytotoxic, no sensitizing potential is reported for lithium disilicate glass-ceramic blocks (LS2) as New Millable GC does not induce oral mucosal irritation. New Millable GC holds no potential for material-mediated pyrogenicity, New Millable presents no risks for acute, sub-acute, sub-chronic toxicity. Extracts of the product are not genotoxic, the risk of carcinogenicity induced by the product is negligible, the products have no direct contact to pulp or dentin. It can be concluded that the product does not represent a toxicological risk for the patient and the user.
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 instructions for use have been followed.
Conclusion:
IPS e.max CAD and IPS e.max One are both millable blocks used for dental restorations. The products are both dental ceramic materials even though the chemical composition differs. The new device covers the indications offered by the predicate device but lacks the indications of bridges. Both blocks are milled in CAD/CAM milling machines. The predicate device needs to undergo a crystallization process after milling which is not needed for IPS e.max One.
Therefore, IPS e.max One is substantially equivalent to the predicate device IPS e.max CAD.
