Device Story
CERASMART is a pre-cured composite block designed for milling via CAD/CAM systems (Aadva, CEREC, E4D) to create indirect dental restorations. Used by dental professionals in clinical settings, the device is milled into inlays, onlays, veneers, or full crowns (including implant-supported crowns). The pre-cured material offers a restorative alternative to porcelain blocks. The healthcare provider uses the milled restoration to replace missing or damaged tooth structure, potentially improving patient dental function and aesthetics. The device is available in 33 shades and three block sizes.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance metrics evaluated include flexural strength, water sorption, solubility, and radiopacity.
Technological Characteristics
Pre-cured composite resin block for CAD/CAM milling. Available in 33 shades and 3 sizes (12, 14, 14L). Compatible with Aadva, CEREC, and E4D systems. Shelf life of 5 years.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring inlays, onlays, veneers, or full crown restorations, including crowns on implants, for anterior or posterior teeth.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Tooth shade resin material is a device composed of materials such as bisphenol-A glycidyl methacrylate (Bis-GMA) intended to restore carious lesions or structural defects in teeth.

- 4. Description of Device:
CERASMART is a pre-cured composite block for milling CAD/CAM indirect restorations. The milled device is used for the restorations of both anterior and posterior teeth.
- న్. Indications for Use:
The product is indicated for inlays, onlays, veneers and full crown restorations, including crowns on implants.
- 6. Technological characteristics:
All the components of the applicant device, CERASMART, have already been used in two of the predicate devices (MFP-051 and GRADIA CORE).
- 7. Substantial equivalence:
Thus, the new and predicate devices are the same in function, and similar in composition and intended use. This supports that the compatibility and safety of the applicant device are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
# Differences:
Compared to 3M Lava Ultimate, Cerasmart has a lower water sorption using ISO 10477. MFP-051 and Gradia Core are not pre-cured. MFP-051 is light cured and Gradia Core is chemical cured.
