Intended Use

Heisenberg Dyeing Liquids are suited for the shading of Heisenberg zirconia frameworks and Heisenberg all-zirconia, monolithic restorations for anterior and posterior teeth.

Device Story

Heisenberg Dyeing Liquids are chemical solutions used for shading zirconia frameworks and monolithic restorations for anterior and posterior teeth. The device is applied by dental professionals to achieve desired tooth color shades. It functions by altering the coloring ions and general chemistry of the zirconia material. The device is used in a dental clinical setting to improve the aesthetic outcome of dental restorations. It provides a method for matching restorations to natural tooth color, benefiting the patient through improved cosmetic appearance.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing of chemical composition, physical properties, and mechanical properties, alongside biocompatibility testing.

Technological Characteristics

Liquid-based shading agent for zirconia. Contains coloring ions. Evaluated for chemical solubility, strength, and remission properties. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for shading zirconia frameworks and all-zirconia, monolithic restorations for anterior and posterior teeth.

Regulatory Classification

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.

## Description for the Premarket Notification

Heisenberg Dyeing Liquid is classified as Porcelain powder for clinical use (21 C.F.R. § 872.6660).

Heisenberg Dyeing Liquid is intended to be used for the shading of Heisenberg zirconia frameworks and Heisenberg all-zirconia, monolithic restorations for anterior and posterior teeth.

Heisenberg Dyeing Liquids will be available in various shades which are corresponding to every tooth color.

Predicate device to which Heisenberg Dyeing Liquids have been compared is Lava Frame Shade by 3M ESPE (K011394). Lava Frame Shade is suited to be used for the shading of zirconia frameworks and all-zirconia, monolithic restorations (made from Lava Mill Blanks by 3M ESPE, K011394) for anterior and posterior teeth. The difference to the predicate device is primary in the change of coloring ions and secondary in the change of the general chemistry.

In this 510(k) premarket notification Heisenberg Dyeing Liquids have been compared to its predicate device with regard to chemical composition, indications for use, and physical and mechanical properties (e.g. chemical solubility, strength, remission). The comparison for chemistry, indications for use, and performance data shows that Heisenberg Dyeing Liquids are substantially equivalent to the predicate device: Lava Frame Shade by 3M ESPE, Germany (K011394).

Biocompatibility testing was carried out.

In summary, it can be concluded that Heisenberg Dyeing Liquids are as safe and effective as the predicate device Lava Frame Shade by 3M ESPE, Germany (K011394).

#### Indications for Use:

Heisenberg Dyeing Liquids are suited for the shading of Heisenberg zirconia frameworks and Heisenberg all-zirconia, monolithic restorations for anterior and posterior teeth.

Dear Mr. Stuiber:

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. 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.
