Intended Use
The Vitique System is intended for use in permanent luting of definitive restorations of all kinds (metal, ceramic, composite), including veneers, crowns and bridges, onlays, telescopic crowns, attachments, pins and posts, orthodontic appliances, luting of ornaments, splinting etc. as well as a add-on for resin based materials. The Try-in pastes may also be used as a general water soluble separating agent (e.g. isolating material for use with prefabricated crowns, retraction cords etc.) or as an oxyguard gel.
Device Story
Vitique System is a dental luting kit comprising aesthetic cement, shade-matched Try-In pastes, silanating agent, and bonding system (etching gel/bonding agent). Used by dental professionals in clinical settings for permanent cementation of various dental restorations (metal, ceramic, composite). Try-In pastes allow clinicians to preview final restoration aesthetics before permanent bonding. Silanating agent prepares ceramic surfaces; bonding system facilitates adhesion to tooth structure. System provides aesthetic luting and restorative support; benefits include improved final restoration appearance and reliable cementation.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Conformity to ISO 4049 standards for polymer-based luting materials provided to demonstrate safety and performance.
Technological Characteristics
Polymer-based luting cement, silanating agent, and bonding system. Materials conform to ISO 4049 standards for polymer-based filling, restorative, and luting materials. System includes shade-matched Try-In pastes and etching components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for permanent luting of definitive dental restorations including metal, ceramic, and composite veneers, crowns, bridges, onlays, telescopic crowns, attachments, pins, posts, and orthodontic appliances; also for luting ornaments, splinting, and as an add-on for resin-based materials. Try-in pastes indicated as water-soluble separating agents or oxyguard gels.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Zinc oxide-eugenol is a device composed of zinc oxide-eugenol intended to serve as a temporary tooth filling or as a base cement to affix a temporary tooth filling, to affix dental devices such as crowns or bridges, or to be applied to a tooth to protect the tooth pulp. Dental cement other than zinc oxide-eugenol is a device composed of various materials other than zinc oxide-eugenol intended to serve as a temporary tooth filling or as a base cement to affix a temporary tooth filling, to affix dental devices such as crowns or bridges, or to be applied to a tooth to protect the tooth pulp.
