Intended Use

Ditron's Dental Implants and Abutments are indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement in the bone of the upper or lower jaw to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore the patient's chewing function.

· Two stage: MPI, ULT, API and CPI models

  • · One stage: OPI and TPI models
    The 3.3 and 3.0mm diameter models for One stage OPI and TPI, Two stage and API implants are intended only for the incisors and cuspids of the maxilla and mandible. They are also indicated for denture stabilization using multiple implants.

Two stage and One stage implants for temporary or long-term use: MPI, ULT, API, CPI, OPI and TPI are self-tapping Titanium threaded screws indicated for long term intra bony applications. They permit immediate splint stability and longterm fixation of new or existing crown, bridge and prosthesis and protection of graft sites.

MPI, ULT, API, CPI, OPI and TPI designs are indicated for immediate loading (except for MPI and API in 6.0mm length) when good primary stability is achieved and with appropriate occlusal loading.

MPI, ULT, API, CPI, OPI and TPI are indicated for immediate loading (except for MPI and API in 6.0mm length) in single tooth restorations when good primary stability is achieved with appropriate occlusal loading.

The 30-degree multi-unit abutments must be used within 45 degrees of parallelism for a splinted restoration. The 17-degree multi-unit abutments must be used within 32 degrees of parallelism for a splinted restoration.

Device Description

This submission covers changes related to Ditron's Dental implants and abutments. The inclusion of additional product variations aims to provide dental surgeons with a broader range of implant and abutment options for patient treatment.

The requested additions to Ditron's Dental Implants and Abutments within this 510(k) are hereby described:

. An additional implant type: TPI (Tissue Level (One Piece) Precision Implant) -The TPI design is based on Ditron's cleared MPI Implant model and the 3.0mm Straight Multi-Unit Abutment, creating a one-piece implant. The TPI's implant part is identical to the cleared MPI Implant model, and the 3.0mm MPI Straight Multi-unit part has minor dimensional modifications and color anodization for aesthetic purposes. The TPI compatible Cover and Prosthetic Screws are color anodized as well.

An additional Abutment type: TPI Healing Caps Abutment -● The TPI Healing Caps design is based on Ditron's cleared Cylindered Healing Caps. The TPI Healing Caps are color-anodized for aesthetic purposes. The TPI Healing Caps Abutments are available in several Gingival height dimensions of 3.5, 4.5 and 5.5mm.

  • . Modification to Cleared Titanium Abutments – Addition of color anodization as an option for all of the Ditron Dental System Titanium Alloy Grade 23 (Ti 6Al-4V ELI) Abutments cleared under K140727 and K161497, to enhance the aesthetic outcome of the dental prosthetics.
  • An additional Abutment type: TPI Titanium Coping Abutments The TPI ● Titanium Coping Abutment design is based on Ditron's cleared Temporary Abutment. The TPI Titanium Coping Abutments are directly connected to the endosseous dental implant and are intended to provide a basis for prosthetic restoration of single (Crown) or multiple teeth (Bridge). The TPI Titanium Coping Abutment is available in several lengths and restoration options: 11.0mm Bridge, 11.0 Crown, 4.5mm Bridge, 4.5mm Crown.
  • An additional Abutment type: TPI Overdenture Liberator Abutment The TPI ● Overdenture Liberator Abutment design is based on Ditron's cleared Liberator Abutment. The Liberator Abutment is available in several length dimensions of 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0mm.
AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text focuses on the substantial equivalence of the "Ditron Dental Implants and Abutments" against predicate devices, primarily discussing changes and additions to the product line and the non-clinical testing performed to support their substantial equivalence for FDA clearance.

The document does not contain the information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria for aspects like:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance: While there's a substantial equivalence table, it compares features and does not list specific acceptance criteria with reported device performance values for a study.
  2. Sample size used for the test set and data provenance: The document mentions non-clinical tests but does not specify sample sizes for test sets (e.g., how many implants were used for fatigue testing, beyond stating "worst case configuration"). It also doesn't discuss data provenance in terms of country of origin or retrospective/prospective for a clinical study.
  3. Number of experts used to establish ground truth and their qualifications: This type of information is relevant for studies involving human interpretation (e.g., image analysis devices), which is not the nature of this submission.
  4. Adjudication method for the test set: Similarly, this is not applicable here as there isn't a "test set" requiring expert adjudication in the context of device performance in a clinical or reader study.
  5. Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study and effect size: This type of study is for evaluating human performance with and without AI assistance, which is not applicable to dental implants and abutments.
  6. Standalone (algorithm only) performance: Not applicable as this is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
  7. Type of ground truth used: For physical device testing, ground truth refers to validated measurements or established standards (e.g., ISO standards for fatigue). The document states tests were conducted "with accordance to ISO 14801" for fatigue, but doesn't elaborate further on a "ground truth" as might be understood in AI/clinical studies.
  8. Sample size for the training set: Not applicable as this is not an AI/machine learning device.
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

The document primarily demonstrates that the new dental implant and abutment variations are substantially equivalent to previously cleared devices based on their identical or similar indications for use, technological characteristics (materials, design, sterilization), and non-clinical performance data (biocompatibility, sterilization validation, surface testing, fatigue testing, shelf life, MRI compatibility). The non-clinical tests performed served to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the new devices align with the predicate devices and established standards.

Therefore, I cannot extract the specific information you requested from the provided text for a "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the format you outlined.

Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence: 6.

The subjected devices are substantially equivalent to Ditron's Dental Implants and Abutments that were cleared under K140728 and K161497, and with TRI Dental Implants' TRI-matrix® Tissue-Level implant cleared under K203660, as identified above under the 'predicate devices' section.

The indications for use are identical between the primary predicate and subject device indications for use statement, except for the addition of the TPI model. The additional TPI dental implants and abutments and Ditron's cleared predicate devices have the same indications for use, same shape, design and characteristics. The only characteristics that are not covered by the Ditron cleared predicates is the color anodization of the tissue level part of subject implant and abutments. This characteristic is equivalent to the TRI-matrix® Tissue-Level implant. All of the changes that differentiate the additional TPI dental implants and abutments from the predicate devices were addressed and evaluated.

7. Non-clinical Performance Data:

The following non-clinical tests were performed in order to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the additional TPI Dental Implants and Abutments:

  • Biocompatibility: Biocompatibility evaluation and testing according to ISO 10993-1 ● Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process, ISO 10993-5 Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 5: Tests for in vitro cytotoxicity and ISO 10993-11 Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 11: Tests for systemic toxicity together with chemical characterization support the substantial equivalent of the subject device.
  • Gamma Sterilization Validation: Gamma Sterilization was conducted to all . Ditron sterile provided items with accordance to ISO 11137-2 and AAMI TIR33 (replaced by ISO 13004:2022 with no changes affecting the original sterilization validation) using the VDmax method. All aspects of the Gamma sterilization process and tests remained unchanged as cleared under K140728. The sterilization results supported the SAL of at least 10-6.

Image /page/16/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Ditron Dental. The logo consists of a green abstract shape resembling the letter 'D' on the left, followed by the words 'DITRON' and 'DENTAL' stacked on top of each other in a sans-serif font. The color of the text is black.

  • Pyrogen Testing (Bacterial Endotoxin): Pyrogen testing is performed using LAL (Limulus . Amebocyte Lysate) method. The TPI is part of the routine quarterly LAL testing to comply with the testing limit of 20EU per device. The test is performed in accordance with ANSI/AAMI ST72 standard, USP <161> and USP <85>.
  • Steam Sterilization Validation: Steam Sterilization was conducted to all Ditron abutments that are provided non-sterile and intended to be sterilized by the user at the clinic. The sterilization validation was conducted in accordance to ISO 17665 parts 1 and 2 and; ANSI AAMI ST79 using the overkill / half-cycle method. All aspects of the Steam sterilization validation process and tests remained unchanged as cleared under K140728. The steam sterilization validation results supported the SAL of at least 10-6.
  • Surface testing: The implants' surface was evaluated by SEM scans and EDS analyses. All ● surface tests results met Ditron's specifications.
  • Fatigue Testing: There has been no change in the final configuration of the Ditron Dental ● Implants and Abutments system configuration.

Being similar in dimensions to the primary predicate, the TPI provided in straight configuration only and in one-piece design, does not alter the worst-case scenario.

The fatigue tests cleared under K140728 were conducted using worst case configuration and with accordance to ISO 14801 and FDA Guidance document for Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments. Since the previously conducted tests cover the additional TPI Implant and abutments, these tests were not repeated.

  • Implant-Bone Contact Analysis (applicable for short implants with a length of 6.0mm): ● There has been no change in the surface contact, and therefore, these tests were not repeated.
  • Implant Surface Area Analysis (applicable for short implants in length of 6.0mm): ● There has been no change in the surface area and therefore these tests were not repeated.
  • Comparative pull-out test (applicable for short implants in length of 6.0mm): The previously . cleared MPI model was tested using a worst-case configuration and therefore no additional testing was conducted.
  • Shelf life: Shelf life and package integrity along 5 years was validated previously within ● Ditron K140728 cleared products. This test was not repeated since all aspects of packaging and sterile barrier materials, process and process parameters are identical for all Ditron implants (subject devices and cleared devices) as cleared under K140728. ISO 11607-1 standard was followed in order to establish 5 years shelf life and package integrity. All tests met their acceptance criteria.
  • MRI Compatibility: MRI Compatibility was established based on evaluation against . scientific literature (Woods et al., "Assessment of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force and Torque on Metal Alloys Used in Medical Devices") and product properties. It was concluded that the device is eligible to bear MR Conditional labeling.

The text is in a simple, sans-serif font and is black in color.

Following the above-described tests and evaluations, it was concluded that the tested devices, whether conducted on the TPI itself or leveraged from Ditron's own discussed predicate devices, passed all tests and successfully met all acceptance criteria and tests' requirements.

8. Substantial Equivalence Conclusion:

The subject TPI dental implants and abutments have the same indications for use,

technological characteristics, mode of operation and performance specifications as the above identified predicate and reference devices. A predicate device for each difference was presented, Similarities and differences were addressed and discussed, and no safety or effectiveness questions were raised.

Based upon the comparison and information described above, Ditron Dental has concluded that its additional TPI dental implants and abutments are substantially equivalent to the discussed primary predicate and reference devices.
