## Intended Use

TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent is used to bond plastic denture teeth and denture reline materials to acrylic denture bases.

## Device Story

TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND is a polymer/monomer liquid solution used in dental laboratories or clinics. It functions as a bonding agent to adhere plastic denture teeth and reline materials to acrylic denture bases. The device is applied by dental professionals during the denture fabrication or repair process. It ensures structural integrity between the denture components. The product is chemically compatible with both heat-cured and auto-polymerizable acrylic denture base resins. Its use does not alter the residual monomer content of the denture base, ensuring safety for the patient.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Gas chromatographic analysis was performed on denture samples to compare residual methyl methacrylate monomer content in dentures prepared with and without the bonding agent. Results showed no statistically significant difference in residual monomer levels, confirming the agent does not adversely affect the denture base material.

## Technological Characteristics

Polymer/monomer liquid solution. Compatible with heat-cured and auto-polymerizable acrylic denture base resins. No specific ASTM standards or complex software/connectivity features described.

## Regulatory Identification

A resin tooth bonding agent is a device material, such as methylmethacrylate, intended to be painted on the interior of a prepared cavity of a tooth to improve retention of a restoration, such as a filling.

872.3200 CLASSIFICATION NAME: Resin tooth bonding agent

K924422 Palabond® Adhesion Primer PREDICATE DEVICES:

DEVICE DESCRIPTION: TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent is a polymer/ monomer liquid solution. It is compatible with both heat-cured and auto-polymerizable acrylic denture base resins.

INTENDED USE: TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent is used to bond plastic denture teeth and denture reline materials to acrylic denture bases.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS: All of the components found in TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent have been used in legally marketed medical devices.

Gas chromatographic analysis of the residual methyl methacrylate monomer in denture samples was conducted to determine the effect that TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent use would have on the residual monomer content in a denture. There is not a statistically significant difference in residual monomer between samples that utilized TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent vs. those prepared without bonding agent. This analysis confirms that TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent use does not affect the amount of residual monomer present in the denture base. Accordingly, no additional patient risk is associated with the use of TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent on dentures properly processed with Lucitone® 199 or Lucitone® FasPor+™ pourable denture base.

We believe that the prior use of the components of TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent in legally marketed predicate devices, and the performance and safety data provided, support the safety and effectiveness of TRUBYTE® DENTURE BOND Denture Bonding Agent for the indicated uses.
