Multi-Cure composite cement is used as a luting cement for veneers, crowns, and bridges for anterior and posterior teeth. Composite restorative materials were developed by Dr. Raphael Bowen working for American Dental Research. The main innovation was Bisphenol A-Glycidyl Methacrylate (Bis-GMA), a dimethacrylate resin with silane coated filler (quartz) particles. These coated particles could bond chemically to the Bis-GMA resin. This is recommended for use for Classes III to V and for Class I when oclusal stress is not a problem and appearance is crucial. Although less durable than amalgam composite designed for Class II posterior applications, it is now used in about 20% of these restorations also.
Device Story
Multi-Cure Composite Cement is a dental luting material consisting of base and catalyst pastes. Upon mixing, the pastes undergo an exothermic reaction. The reaction is accelerated by visible light curing via camphorquinone and dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate. The material utilizes Bis-GMA resin with silane-coated quartz filler particles to facilitate chemical bonding. Used by dental professionals in clinical settings for cementation of restorations (veneers, crowns, bridges) and specific cavity classifications (I, III-V). The device provides a restorative or luting function to improve tooth appearance and structural integrity in dental procedures.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Composition: Bis-GMA (Bisphenol A-Glycidyl Methacrylate) resin with silane-coated quartz filler particles. Principle: Dual-cure (chemical exothermic reaction accelerated by visible light). Form: Two-paste system (base and catalyst).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a luting cement for veneers, crowns, and bridges on anterior and posterior teeth. Recommended for Class III to V restorations and Class I restorations where occlusal stress is not a concern and aesthetics are required.
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.

Dear Ms. Olson:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions The general controls provisions of the Act 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 (Premarket Approval), 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 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices: General (GMP) requlation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic GMP inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

The base paste and catalyst paste when mixed together form an exothermic reaction. When a standard dental curing light in the visible wave-length range is used it will cause the camphorquinone and the liquid "A" dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate to accelerate this reaction.
