The indication is same to that of stain materials in similar products. ## Device Story CHROMA ZONE COLOR STAIN is a dental laboratory material used for color characterization of resin-based restorations (jacket crowns, facing crowns, inlays, onlays). The device consists of 11 stain pastes and a clear paste composed of dimethacrylate monomers and inorganic fillers. It is applied by dental technicians using two primary techniques: the 'inner stain technique' (applying stain to dentin resin before enamel resin placement) or the 'surface stain technique' (applying to pit and fissure sites after shaping and polishing). The output is a color-characterized dental restoration, which aids in achieving natural tooth aesthetics. The device is used exclusively in dental laboratories; it does not involve automated processing or software. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Biocompatibility evaluation included acute oral toxicity testing in mice (LD50 > 8,000 mg/kg for inorganic filler BGP) and rats (LD50 > 3,000 mg/kg for matrix resin DTA), and genotoxicity testing (Ames test) which yielded negative results. ## Technological Characteristics Resin-based stain material consisting of dimethacrylate monomers and inorganic fillers (borosilicate glass containing SiO2, B2O3, Al2O3, Na2O, K2O, Fe2O). Formulated as 11 stain pastes and a clear paste. Used for manual color characterization of dental restorations via inner or surface staining techniques. No energy source, connectivity, or software components. ## Regulatory 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. ## Predicate Devices - TARGIS SYSTEM ([K962878](/device/K962878.md)) - BELLEGLASS HP DENTAL LABORATORY CROWN AND BRIDGRE FABRICATION SYSTEM ([K955331](/device/K955331.md)) - ARTGLASS & KEVLOC ([K954115](/device/K954115.md)) - SOLIDEX ([K972292](/device/K972292.md)) - FIBREKOR ([K964578](/device/K964578.md)) - DENTACOLOR VITA(VS) SHADE SYSTEM ([K940800](/device/K940800.md)) ## Reference Devices - CLEARFIL LINER BOND 2 ([K943169](/device/K943169.md)) - PANAVIA 21 ([K933030](/device/K933030.md)) - CLEARFIL POSTERIOR 3 ([K871635](/device/K871635.md)) - PHOTO CLEARFIL OPAQUER ([K925383](/device/K925383.md)) - TEETHMATE F-1 ([K965091](/device/K965091.md)) - CLEARFIL LINER BOND 2V ([K974486](/device/K974486.md)) - CLEARFIL AP-X ([K943168](/device/K943168.md)) - PANAVIA EX ([K855211](/device/K855211.md)) - DURAFILL MICROFILL RESTORATIVE MATERIAL ([K811669](/device/K811669.md)) - PRISMA-FIL ([K801732](/device/K801732.md)) ## Related Devices - [K050920](/device/K050920.md) — CZR PRESS LF STAINS · Noritake Co., Inc. · May 11, 2005 - [K012737](/device/K012737.md) — CHROMA ZONE COLOR STAIN · Kuraray Medical, Inc. · Sep 14, 2001 - [K080834](/device/K080834.md) — VINTAGE ART · Shofu Dental Corp. · Jun 11, 2008 - [K101621](/device/K101621.md) — LITE ART · Shofu Dental Corp. · Aug 23, 2010 - [K143090](/device/K143090.md) — LUMINESSE PRE-SINTERED ZIRCONIA COLORING LIQUID · Talladium, Inc. · Jun 15, 2015 ## Submission Summary (Full Text) {0}------------------------------------------------ SEP 22 1998 Image /page/0/Picture/2 description: The image is a logo for Kuraray, a Japanese chemical company.
