The device description focuses on the chemical composition of dental ceramic materials and does not mention any computational or algorithmic components.
No
The product is intended for fabricating dental restorations like crowns, bridges, and veneers, which are prosthetic devices used to replace or restore damaged teeth, not devices for treating a particular disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a dental ceramic used to fabricate dental restorations (crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays), which are prosthetic devices, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly outlines a dental ceramic material composed of various chemical compounds, 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 for fabricating dental restorations (crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays). This is a manufacturing process for a medical device that will be placed in the body, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample from the body.
- Device Description: The description details the chemical composition of the ceramic materials used to build the dental restorations. It does not describe a test or assay designed to detect or measure substances in a biological sample.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This device is a material used to create a physical restoration.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The product is intended for use in fabricating oral crowns and bridges and laminate veneers and inlays for dental use.

Device Description
Willi Geller Creation porcelain is a dental ceramic that is used by dental technicians to fabricate dental restorations including porcelain fused to metal crowns and bridges, laminate veneers, and inlays. The ceramic powders in the Creation porcelain system are composed in varying proportions of silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, sodium oxide, potassium oxide, barium oxide, and iron oxide. Chemically stable mixed metal oxides, including spinel, baddeleyit, zircon, and periclase phases of zirconium, iron, cobalt, chromium, yttrium, cerium, nickel, and zinc oxides, are used in trace amounts for pigmentation. The paste opaques are comprised of ceramic powder fitting this description suspended in glycerol, zinc chloride, sodium acetate, propandiol, and aerosil. The stains are composed of silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, tin oxide, tin oxide, barium oxide, iron oxide, and calcium oxide, and chemically stable mixed metal oxides for pigmentation. The modeling liquid is composed of zinc chloride and water. The shoulder liquid is composed of tylose and water. The glaze liquid is composed of methylethylene glycol and water. The opaque liquid is composed of zinc chloride, water, and sodium chloride. The vehicle used in the paste opaques and the liquids are evaporated during use, and are not incorporated into devices manufactured with the porcelain.

§ 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.

SUMMARY OF DATA
Willi Geller Creation porcelain is a dental ceramic that is used by dental technicians to fabricate dental restorations including porcelain fused to metal crowns and bridges, laminate veneers, and inlays. The product is substantially equivalent to the Willi Geller Creation ceramic which was cleared via 510(k) #K900209.
The ceramic powders in the Creation porcelain system are composed in varying proportions of silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, sodium oxide, potassium oxide, barium oxide, and iron oxide. Chemically stable mixed metal oxides, including spinel, baddeleyit, zircon, and periclase phases of zirconium, iron, cobalt, chromium, yttrium, cerium, nickel, and zinc oxides, are used in trace amounts for pigmentation. The paste opaques are comprised of ceramic powder fitting this description suspended in glycerol, zinc chloride, sodium acetate, propandiol, and aerosil. The stains are composed of silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, tin oxide, tin oxide, barium oxide, iron oxide, and calcium oxide, and chemically stable mixed metal oxides for pigmentation. The modeling liquid is composed of zinc chloride and water. The shoulder liquid is composed of tylose and water. The glaze liquid is composed of methylethylene glycol and water. The opaque liquid is composed of zinc chloride, water, and sodium chloride. The vehicle used in the paste opaques and the liquids are evaporated during use, and are not incorporated into devices manufactured with the porcelain.
