# Device Description
SprintRay Digital Crown resin consists of a curable dental acrylate resin that is manufactured in a dental office based on a 3D scanned image of a patient's teeth. The acrylate resin material is designed to be used in conjunction with a scanned 3D image, and 3D printer assembly, to locally manufacture out a dental appliance based on the clinician's judgment of patient need.
Fabrication of dental prosthetics with SprintRay Digital Crown resin requires computer-aided design and CAD/CAM manufacturing system that includes the following components not part of the device: oral casting impression, digital crown file created in an optical impression system, 3D printer, and curing light equipment. SprintRay Digital Crown Resin is intended exclusively for professional dental work. Digital Crown Resin is offered in following shades/colors: Bleach, A1, B1.
The device is manufactured via additive manufacturing process using a 3D printer with 405 nm wavelength, 50 m print layer thickness, and light energy of 28.8 mW/cm².
{4}------------------------------------------------
Digital Crown resin is designed to meet appropriate ISO standards for flexibility and sorption, to withstand prolonged use in the oral cavity. It is delivered nonsterile, and instructions are provided on cleaning the material prior to providing it to a patient. Curing is performed with a UV lamp. The appliance is then cleaned, trimmed, and verified to fit in the dental office before the patient leaves.
# Intended Use / Indications for Use
SprintRay Digital Crown is a light-curable polymerizable resin intended to be used for the fabrication of; individual and fixed definitive full single crowns; definitive partial crowns in anterior and posterior area, individual and fixed single veneers; artificial teeth for dental prostheses, which are used for removable definitive full dentures; and individual and removable monolithic full and partial dentures in dental offices and laboratories. The material is an alternative to traditional restorative dental material.
# Summary of Technological Characteristics
Light-based curing of a 3D printed acrylate resin is the technological principle for both the subject and predicate devices. Digital Crown resin is poured into a 3D printer, which relies on scanned images of the patient's oral cavity to produce a dental appliance. At a high level, the subject and predicate devices are based on the following same technological elements:
- . are a pourable acrylate resin
- are used in conjunction with 3D printers. which rely on common 3D images . to define the fabricated dental appliance
- . are cured prior to final trimming and cleaning
- are used for the fabrication of orthodontic and dental appliances ●
The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate devices: differences in acrylate resin material composition
# Performance Data
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
