Device Class
Class 2
Intended Use
Kromopan type 1, Kromopan type 2, Alginor type 1, Alginelle type 1, Alginelle type 2 and Millenium alginates are irreversible hydrocolloids for dental impressions used by the dentist to take the anatomical data of the patient's mouth and subsequently realize a plaster mold useful to diagnose problems, define the required interventions and/or check their effectiveness. The device is intended to provide models for study and for production of restorative prosthetic devices, such as gold inlays and dentures.
Device Story
Irreversible hydrocolloid impression material; used by dentists to capture anatomical data of patient's mouth; creates plaster molds for diagnosis, treatment planning, and restorative prosthetic fabrication (inlays, dentures). Material is mixed and applied to patient's mouth; sets to form negative impression; used to cast positive plaster models. No electronic or software components.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Compliance with ISO 1563:1990 standards for powder, mixed material, mixing time, working time, reproduction of detail, recovery from deformation, strain in compression, and compressive strength. Additional performance testing per LASCOD internal criteria (PVPF001) for setting time, color change, dimensional stability, flavor, and color after setting.
Technological Characteristics
Irreversible hydrocolloid impression material. Complies with ISO 1563:1990 standards for physical properties. Performance criteria include 100-hour dimensional stability, specific setting times, and color-changing properties. No energy source, software, or connectivity.
Indications for Use
Indicated for dental patients requiring anatomical impressions for diagnostic study models or production of restorative prosthetic devices, including gold inlays and dentures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Impression material is a device composed of materials such as alginate or polysulfide intended to be placed on a preformed impression tray and used to reproduce the structure of a patient's teeth and gums. The device is intended to provide models for study and for production of restorative prosthetic devices, such as gold inlays and dentures.

#### 5.6. Substantial Equivalence Summary:
This submission is based on the preamendments device Kromopan. Alginor, Alginelle and Millenium are substantially equivalent to Kromopan because they all have the same intended use and are nearly identical in their chemical composition.
#### 5.7. Technological Characteristics
All the alginates described in the premarket notification application (510k) have the following technological characteristics:
- . Identical mechanism of action
- . Identical dimensional stability 100 hours
- . Highly similar preparation times
- . Highly similar elastic recovery and accuracy
- 5.8. All LASCOD alginates comply with the recognized International Standards Organization guidance. Specifically the Powder with ISO 1563:1990- 4.1 / 6.2, Mixed material with ISO 1563:1990 - 4.3 / 6.2, Mixing Time ISO 1563:1990 -- 4.4, Total working time ISO 1563:1990 -4.5 /6.3, Reproduction of detail ISO 1563:1990 -4.6 /6.4, Recovery from deformation ISO 1563:1990 - 4.7 / 6.5, Strain in compression ISO 1563:1990 - 4.8 / 6.6, Compressive strength ISO 1563:1990- 4.9 /6.7.
