Intended Use
The Cortex Dental Implant System is indicated for use in surgical (single-stage or two-stage procedures) and restorative applications for placement in the bone of the upper or lower jaw to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, and to restore the patient's chewing function. The System is intended to be used in either single tooth or multiple teeth applications.
Device Description
The Cortex Dental Implant System includes an integral array of devices comprising mainly of dental implants, abutments, additional prosthetic and surgical components, post surgical components, and surgical instruments.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical dental implant system and its performance testing, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is intended to "restore the patient's chewing function" and support prosthetic devices, which are clear therapeutic actions.

No

Explanation: The device is a dental implant system used for surgical and restorative applications to replace teeth and restore chewing function, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system includes dental implants, abutments, prosthetic and surgical components, and surgical instruments, which are all hardware components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a system of dental implants and related components that are surgically placed within the patient's jawbone to support prosthetic devices. This is an in vivo (within the living body) application, not an in vitro (outside the living body) diagnostic test.

The device is a surgical implant system, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes biological samples.

Summary of Performance Studies

Mechanical strength testing of the implant system was performed according to FDA "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments"
The specimen tested represents the most vulnerable system configuration (worst case). Test results show that the implant/abutment combination is highly resistant
The Acid Treatment Process was designed in compliance with the guidelines of ASTM B 600-91.
SEM-EDS results demonstrated how the process saves the morphology of the surface. Process validation also verified that that implant surface is indeed cleaned from all alumina residuals and washing detergents used during the machining and alumina blasting.

§ 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.

Device Description

The Cortex Dental Implant System includes an integral array of devices comprising mainly of dental implants, abutments, additional prosthetic and surgical components, post surgical components, and surgical instruments.

Intended Use

The Cortex Dental Implant System is indicated for use in surgical (singlestage or two-stage procedures) and restorative applications for placement in the bone of the upper or lower jaw to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, and to restore the patient's chewing function. The System is intended to be used in either single tooth or multiple teeth applications.

Performance

Mechanical strength testing of the implant system was performed according to FDA "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments"

The specimen tested represents the most vulnerable system configuration (worst case). Test results show that the implant/abutment combination is highly resistant

The Acid Treatment Process was designed in compliance with the guidelines of ASTM B 600-91.

SEM-EDS results demonstrated how the process saves the morphology of the surface. Process validation also verified that that implant surface is indeed cleaned from all alumina residuals and washing detergents used during the machining and alumina blasting.

Conclusion

The Cortex Dental Implant System, subject of this submission, constitutes a safe, reliable and effective medical device, meeting all the declared requirements of its intended use. Device presents no adverse health effects or safety risks to patients when used as intended.

The Cortex Dental Implant System has the same intended use and fundamental scientific technology as its predicate devices - the MIS Dental Implant System (specifically the Seven implant series - K040807) and Uno -One Piece Screw-Type Dental Implant (K080162) by MIS - Implant Technologies Ltd .; and the Legacy System Dental Implants by Implant Direct LLC (K030007).

We therefore believe that the Cortex Dental Implant System and its predicate devices are substantially equivalent

Dear Mr. Arazy:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of July 7, 2009.

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 (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 additional controls.
