It is intended for permanent or semi-permanent use in oral reconstruction, meaning it can be used to fill or rebuild damaged areas of a tooth to restore function and appearance.
How is the LUTE VLC; CORE VLC supplied and what preparation is required before use?
The LUTE VLC; CORE VLC comes as a dual-component system, meaning it requires mixing of two parts before application. After mixing, it must be polymerized using visible light curing (VLC) to harden. Since it is designed for single-use, each application should use a fresh mixture to ensure sterility and prevent contamination.
Is the LUTE VLC; CORE VLC intended for reuse, and what precautions should be taken during handling?
The manufacturer specifies that the LUTE VLC; CORE VLC is intended for single-use only. To maintain sterility and prevent contamination, it must be handled in a sterile or aseptic environment, as improper handling could compromise its integrity and safety for dental procedures.
What key material components make up the LUTE VLC; CORE VLC, and how does this relate to its use?
The LUTE VLC; CORE VLC contains bisphenol-A glycidyl methacrylate (Bis-GMA), a common resin material in dental composites. This composition allows it to bond well to tooth structures, providing durability and aesthetic matching to natural tooth shade, making it suitable for restorative and core build-up applications in dental work.
What regulatory pathway was followed for the FDA clearance of the LUTE VLC; CORE VLC, and what does this imply about its classification?
The LUTE VLC; CORE VLC underwent a traditional review process through the FDA’s 510(k) clearance pathway (K011309) and is classified as a Class II device under the Dental advisory committee. This classification indicates it poses moderate risk and requires special controls to ensure its safety and effectiveness for dental luting and core build-up applications.
