Intended Use
Pavati® Z40.2 Zirconia blanks are in prosthetic dentistry to create porcelain (ceramic) prostheses (crowns and bridges) in the anterior/ posterior applications. Pavati® Zirconia blanks are intended to be milled and fully sintered by Dental Professional or Dental Laboratory before use.
Device Story
Pavati Z40.2 Zirconia blanks are yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP) ceramic discs/blocks. Dental laboratories use CAD/CAM systems to mill blanks based on patient tooth anatomy; milled restorations are then fully sintered and colored as needed before installation by dental professionals. Device serves as raw material for custom dental prostheses; provides biocompatible, high-strength ceramic structure for crowns and bridges. Benefits include restoration of dental function and aesthetics. Used in dental laboratory settings; operated by dental technicians/professionals.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data. Performance validated via mechanical testing including sintered density, thermal expansion, bending strength, fracture toughness, grain size, and chemical solubility per ISO 6872:2015 and ISO 13356:2015. Biocompatibility established per ISO 10993-1.
Technological Characteristics
Material: Yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP). Composition: ZrO2+HfO2+Y2O3+Al2O3 > 99.9%. Form factor: Discs and blocks of various sizes. Manufacturing: Compression of ZrO2 powder with organic binder, partial sintering. Standards: ISO 6872:2015 (Ceramic Materials), ISO 13356:2015 (Implants for surgery), ISO 10993-1 (Biocompatibility).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by dental professionals or laboratories to create porcelain (ceramic) crowns and bridges in anterior/posterior applications. Contraindicated for restorations >3 units in length and 3-unit prostheses involving molar restorations.
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.

#### 4. Indications for Use
Pavati® Z40.2 Zirconia blanks are indicated for use in prosthetic dentistry to create porcelain (ceramic) prostheses (crowns and bridges) in the anterior/ posterior applications.
Pavati® Z40.2 Zirconia blanks are intended to be milled and fully sintered by Dental Professional or Dental Laboratory before use. Pavati® Z40.2 Zirconia blanks are for "Rx only" and not for use by the general public or sold as "Over- the-Counter".
#### 5. Device Description and Function
Pavati® Z40.2 Zirconia are disc and block shaped dental porcelain zirconia oxide blanks that come in various sizes that are used in custom restorations by the dental laboratory. The dental laboratory will further process the blank by milling the blank based upon the anatomically rendering of the patients teeth (done at the dental office) through "Computer Aided Drafting/ Computer Aided Machining (CAD/CAM). Once the custom rendered blank is milled the product is fully sintered and colored (if required) and fitted to the patients teeth as crowns or bridges.
#### 6. Physical and Performance Characteristics
### Design:
Design considerations included using current dental technology materials (Zirconium oxide) and the same manufacturing processes used throughout the world in fabrication of dental porcelain ceramic blanks. In this submission CCRI, Inc. has combined two similar products, the Prismatik Dentalcraft BruxZir Anterior Milling Blanks-K150872 (Primary Predicate) and the Prismatik Dentalcraft BruxZir Anterior-K143330 (Reference Predicate)
The Zirconia powder is acquired by an approved supplier who is a leader in production of dental ceramic material. This supplier's material is also used by many dental companies in their own formulations. Zirconia ceramic material was chosen based upon its many years of use in dental restorations by dentists, which when used is chemically/biologically practically inert.
Pavati® Z40.2 Zirconia ceramic blanks are produced by using ZrO2 powder which is combined with an organic binder (which is burnt-off during firing) and compressed into various configurations. The compressed blanks are then partially sintered (fired) at high temperatures, tested and packaged. These blanks are then sold to Dental labs or dental professionals with the capability to mill the blanks (typically using CAD/CAM techniques) into a final shape (dental restoration) and fully sintered and
{6}------------------------------------------------
colored (if required) before patientinstallation.
### Material Used:
Pavati® Z40.2 Zirconia blanks are composed of zirconia ceramics (ZrO>) based on yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP). The material is biocompatible according to ISO 10993-1: "Biological Evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process".

{7}------------------------------------------------
#### 7. Nonclinical Testing
CCRI performed a series of tests to assess the device. Sintered tests coupled with mechanical bench testing confirmed that the device meets specifications including established international standards and guidance documents. Density, bending strength, fracture toughness, chemical solubility and material characterization/composition of finished product was conducted to confirm that the product is meeting performance goals established by standards. Pavati® Zirconia blanks comply with ISO 6872:2015, "Dentistry – Ceramic materials" and ISO 13356: 2015, "Implants for surgery, Ceramic materials based on yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP)".
#### Comparison to predicate devices (Table below) 8.
Pavati® Z40.2 Zirconia dental porcelain zirconium oxide blanks for use by dental professionals to construct custom dental restorations are substantially similar to the Prismatik Dentalcraft's BruxZir Anterior product lines.
All product testing by CCRI has been done on full sintered product to assure the end user that the performance specifications of the product comply with established consensus standards and are similar to the conditions of ceramic manufacture as the predicate devices.
Both the subject device and the primary predicate device state they are indicate for use by dental professionals. Both the subject device and the primary predicate device are to be used to create prosthesis in the anterior or posterior. ISO 6872:2015 was used to support changes in the technological characteristics in the subject devices vs. the primary predicate device.
