Intended Use

The 3i Patient-Specific Overdenture Bars are intended for use as an accessory to an endosseous dental implant to support a prosthetic device in an edentulous or partially edentulous patient. It is intended for use to support multiple tooth prostheses, in the mandible or maxilla. The prosthesis can be screwed retained.

Device Description

The 3i Patient-Specific Overdenture Bars are designed to match individual patients.

AI/ML Overview

This 510(k) premarket notification for Implant Innovations, Inc.'s 3i Patient-Specific Overdenture Bars focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices already on the market, rather than presenting a study with specific acceptance criteria and performance metrics for a novel AI/software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD).

Therefore, the provided document does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria, device performance tables, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, or standalone performance studies, as these types of studies are typically associated with validating the performance of diagnostic or therapeutic devices that rely on novel algorithms or measurements.

The document primarily focuses on:

  • Device Description: 3i Patient-Specific Overdenture Bars are designed to match individual patients and are intended for use as an accessory to an endosseous dental implant to support a prosthetic device in partially or edentulous patients.
  • Intended Use: To support multiple tooth prostheses in the mandible or maxilla, with the prostheses being screw-retained to the abutment.
  • Predicate Devices: Various overdenture bars (Hader, Dolder, Primary) and specifically K974150 Nobel Biocare, Inc. Procera® Preparable Abutment System.
  • Safety and Effectiveness Summary: Mentions historical problems with overdenture bars (fractures of screws, loose screws, improper mating leading to inflammation) but does not provide details on how the 3i device addresses these with specific performance data.
  • Substantial Equivalence: The FDA's letter states the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices, meaning it has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the predicate devices, or if there are differences, they do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.

In summary, the provided document is a 510(k) clearance letter for a medical device (patient-specific overdenture bars) that is demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices. It does not contain the detailed performance study information, including acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert qualifications, or ground truth methodologies, that would be associated with the validation of an AI/SaMD diagnostic or therapeutic product.

Dear Mr. Banic:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions 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 (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act): 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510/k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-5613.
