Intended Use
The Simpler Mini Implants (ID SM3002-4) and the Simpler HA Mini Implants (ID SM5002-4) are intended to provide long term intra-bony applications. They are designed for immediate loading when there is good primary stability and an appropriate occlusal load. They may also be used for temporary support for partial and fully edentulous restoration in the mandible and maxilla. They may be used for full or partial edentulism and are used as an option to provide a minimally invasive surgical intervention.
Device Description
The HA coated Simpler Mini Implants (K 083886) are identical to the Simpler Mini Implants (K073645) except for the addition of the HA coating to the threaded area of the implants. Natural dentition is composed of a subgingival root and a supragingival crown. For both coated and uncoated mini implant designs tend to minic this structure and transitional implants are no exception. The implant base and the abutment are all in one piece. They are 2.5mm in diameter with a choice of 10, 13 or 15 mm in length for both the Simpler HA mini implants. For partial and complete edentulism, a retaining a rubber ring acts like a socket to receive the ball on the top of the implant. A soft liner is placed into the patient's denture to adapt around the ball portion of the implant to provide retention to the denture. When seated, the denture rests on the gum tissue.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a physical dental implant device and its intended use, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML.

No
The device is described as an implant for long-term intra-bony applications, designed to provide support for dental restorations. While it aids in the restoration of function, it does not directly treat or cure a disease or condition in the way a therapeutic device typically would.

No

Explanation: The device, Simpler Mini Implants, is described as a long-term intra-bony application intended for dental restorations (implants), not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes physical implants made of materials and with specific dimensions, indicating it is a hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The Simpler Mini Implants and Simpler HA Mini Implants are described as devices intended for long-term intra-bony applications in the mandible and maxilla. They are used to provide support for dental restorations in patients with partial or full edentulism. This involves surgical implantation into the bone.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples from the patient. The device is a physical implant placed within the body.

Therefore, the function and application of this device fall outside the scope of in vitro diagnostics. It is a medical device used for surgical and prosthetic purposes.

§ 872.3640 Endosseous dental implant.

(a)
Identification. An endosseous dental implant is a prescription device made of a material such as titanium or titanium alloy that is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore a patient's chewing function.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a root-form endosseous dental implant. The root-form endosseous dental implant is characterized by four geometrically distinct types: Basket, screw, solid cylinder, and hollow cylinder. The guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-Form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments” will serve as the special control. (See § 872.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.)(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a blade-form endosseous dental implant. The special controls for this device are:(i) The design characteristics of the device must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use;
(ii) Mechanical performance (fatigue) testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate maximum load (endurance limit) when the device is subjected to compressive and shear loads;
(iii) Corrosion testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate corrosion potential of each metal or alloy, couple potential for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system, and corrosion rate for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system;
(iv) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible;
(v) Sterility testing must demonstrate the sterility of the device;
(vi) Performance testing to evaluate the compatibility of the device in a magnetic resonance (MR) environment;
(vii) Labeling must include a clear description of the technological features, how the device should be used in patients, detailed surgical protocol and restoration procedures, relevant precautions and warnings based on the clinical use of the device, and qualifications and training requirements for device users including technicians and clinicians;
(viii) Patient labeling must contain a description of how the device works, how the device is placed, how the patient needs to care for the implant, possible adverse events and how to report any complications; and
(ix) Documented clinical experience must demonstrate safe and effective use and capture any adverse events observed during clinical use.

Description:

The HA coated Simpler Mini Implants (K 083886) are identical to the Simpler Mini Implants (K073645) except for the addition of the HA coating to the threaded area of the implants. Natural dentition is composed of a subgingival root and a supragingival crown. For both coated and uncoated mini implant designs tend to minic this structure and transitional implants are no exception. The implant base and the abutment are all in one piece.

A soft liner is placed into the patient's denture to adapt around the ball portion of the implant to provide retention to the denture. When seated, the denture rests on the gum tissue.

Indications for Use

The Simpler Mini Implants (ID S3002-4) and the Simpler HA Mini Implants (ID S5002-4) are intended to provide long term intra-bony applications. They are designed for immediate loading. They may also be used for temporary support for partial and fully edentulous restoration in the mandible and maxillae. They may be used for full or partial edentulism and are used as an option for a minimally invasive surgical intervention.

The Simpler HA Mini Implant and the Simpler Mini Implant is used in a clinical setting by a qualified dentist. It is expected that the dentist be familiar with placing narrow diameter implants. Patients have the advantage of immediate loading of their prostheses.

Contraindications:

Contraindications customary to the placement of any dental implant may be observed. These include, but are not limited to current local infection, vascular impairment, uncontrolled diabetes, chronic high doses of steroids, clotting disorders, current anticoagulant therapy, metabolic bone disease, and other metabolic or systemic disorders which will affect bone or wound healing. Excessive loading or placement of implants in inadequate bone may result in fracture.

Complications: Possible complications with any oral reconstructive surgery include infection, abscess formation, bone loss, pain soft tissue irregularities and additional complications associated with anesthesia and dental surgery.
