Intended Use

Dental Lithium Disilicate Glass-Ceramic is available using CAD/CAM and hot pressing techniques for the preparation of full ceramic crowns, inlays, onlays, veneer and full ceramic 3-unit anterior bridges.

Device Description

Dental Lithium Disilicate Glass-Ceramic is a lithium disilicate ceramic to be supplied in the form of cuboid and cylinder. Dental Lithium Disilicate Glass-Ceramic can be fabricated using CAD/CAM and hot pressing technologies. The device is a glass type material used for aesthetic purposes of full ceramic crowns, inlays, onlays, veneer and full ceramic 3-unit anterior bridges. The ceramics material is composed of SiO2, Li2O, K2O, Al2O3, P2O5, ZrO2 and other oxides. It contains inorganic pigments. The inorganic pigments generate the color on the restorations, after sintering at dental labs, that matches natural color of patient's teeth. The performance of the device conforms to ISO 6872:2015 Dentistry: Ceramic Materials. It is a single-use device, and provided non-sterile.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) summary for a dental material, not an AI/ML medical device. Therefore, the questions related to AI/ML device performance, such as sample size for test sets, data provenance, ground truth establishment, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, and standalone performance, are not applicable.

The document describes the acceptance criteria for the Dental Lithium Disilicate Glass-Ceramic device and the non-clinical testing performed to demonstrate its compliance.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document provides a comparison table (Table 1) that includes several parameters which act as acceptance criteria derived primarily from the ISO 6872:2015 standard for ceramic materials. The "New Device" column shows the reported device performance.

§ 872.6660 Porcelain powder for clinical use.

(a)
Identification. Porcelain powder for clinical use is a device consisting of a mixture of kaolin, felspar, quartz, or other substances intended for use in the production of artificial teeth in fixed or removable dentures, of jacket crowns, facings, and veneers. The device is used in prosthetic dentistry by heating the powder mixture to a high temperature in an oven to produce a hard prosthesis with a glass-like finish.(b)
Classification. Class II.
