NobelProcera Implant Bridges are made individually following instructions and models specific to each patient. The NobelProcera Implant Bridge is made entirely of titanium.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical dental bridge framework made of titanium, individually manufactured based on patient-specific instructions and models. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, AI, or ML.

Yes
The device is described as "restoring chewing function," which directly addresses a physiological function and alleviates a condition (edentulism), thus fitting the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is a bridge framework for restoring chewing function, which is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states that the NobelProcera Implant Bridge is a physical bridge framework made entirely of titanium, which is a hardware component.

Based on the provided information, the NobelProcera Implant Bridge is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that the NobelProcera Implant Bridge is a bridge framework that attaches to implants or abutments in the mouth to restore chewing function. It is a physical device implanted in the body, not a test performed on a biological sample.
  • The description focuses on the physical structure and function of the device. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

Therefore, the NobelProcera Implant Bridge falls under the category of a medical device, specifically a dental prosthesis component, rather than an IVD.

Dear Mr. Crane:

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 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.
