It serves as a substrate for medium expansion with lower fusing porcelains and indirect restorative composites. Used by dental professionals in the fabrication of single crowns, bridges, and implant superstructures. The alloy provides structural strength, durability, and the aesthetic color of gold for dental restorations. It is processed via standard dental casting techniques. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is based on bench testing of physical and mechanical properties (melting point, hardness, yield strength, elongation, CTE, density) and compositional analysis compared to the predicate device, following ANSI/ADA 5 and ISO 9693 standards. ## Technological Characteristics High noble, gold-based dental casting alloy. Composition: Au 82%, Pt 8.87%, Pd 3.8%, In 2.0%, Ir 0.1%, Ta 0.25%. Physical properties: Melting range 2,192-2,372°F, Vickers hardness 165, yield strength 320 MPa, elongation 9.3%, CTE 14.1 x 10^-6/°C, density 19.2 g/cm3. Tested per ANSI/ADA 5 and ISO 9693. ## Regulatory Identification A noble metal alloy is a device composed primarily of noble metals, such as gold, palladium, platinum, or silver, that is intended for use in the fabrication of cast or porcelain-fused-to-metal crown and bridge restorations. ## Special Controls *Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Dental Noble Metal Alloys.” The devices are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 872.9. See § 872.1(e) for availability of guidance information. ## Predicate Devices - Metalor's V-Supragold ([K993508](/device/K993508.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

CERANUM 82 is a High Noble, Micro-fine, Yellow, Gold based alloy to be used for single crowns, bridge, implant superstructures and substrate for medium expansion with lower fusing porcelains and indirect restorative composites. CERANUM 82 is a high gold ceramic alloy, which heightens the porcelain esthetics of the restoration and provides strength, durability and color of gold. Despite minor differences in the materials, we believe that CERAUM 82 is a substantially equivalent to Metalor's V-Supragold . These changes do not affect safety or effectiveness. {2}------------------------------------------------ #### DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the text "Public Health Service".

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. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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. Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. {3}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 -- Mr. Chang You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
