Intended Use
TiXos dental implants are permanent devices for single use only that are intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the mandibular and/or maxillary dental arches of the patient in order to restore their original dental function and aesthetic features by providing support for fixed and/or removal prosthesis. TiXos dental implants can support single tooth, multiple tooth, or total prosthesis restorations and are compatible with the following dental abutments manufactured by Leader Italia that were previously cleared under K062931.
Device Description
Leader Italia's line of TiXos dental implants are titanium endosseous implants that are fabricated by a process called Direct Laser Metal Forming ("DLMF"). This fabrication process results in the production of an implant with a porous surface characterized by open intercommunicating cavities and networks. The implants are intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the mandibular and/or maxillary dental arches of the patient to provide support to be their fixed and/or removal prosthesis, and to restore their original dental and/or masticatory function. TiXos dental implants are permanent devices for single use and can support single tooth, multiple tooth, or total prosthesis restorations. These implants are designed to be used exclusively with Leader Italia's line of prosthetic abutments and surgical instruments. TiXos dental implants are gamma sterilized, have two basic model configurations called Cylindrical and S-Type, and a number of different sizes and diameters as shown below.

No
The summary describes a physical dental implant and its manufacturing process, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device is intended to restore original dental function and aesthetic features, which are therapeutic benefits.

No

Explanation: The device is a dental implant designed to restore dental function and aesthetic features by providing support for prostheses, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device is a physical dental implant made of titanium, fabricated using Direct Laser Metal Forming. It is surgically placed in bone and supports prostheses. This clearly indicates a hardware device, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states that TiXos dental implants are "permanent devices for single use only that are intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the mandibular and/or maxillary dental arches of the patient".
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "restore their original dental function and aesthetic features by providing support for fixed and/or removal prosthesis."

This device is a surgically implanted medical device, not a device used for testing samples outside of the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non-Clinical Data - Bench Testing & Device Validations: As part of demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of TiXos dental implants and in showing substantial equivalence to its IMPLUS implants, Leader Italia submitted a number of its dental implants for fatigue testing in accordance with ISO 14801, Dentistry - Implants - Dynamic Fatigue Test for Endosseous Dental Implants, where their implants were tested in dry (i.e., air) environment. Testing was performed on the TiXos dental implants to simulate worst-case loading conditions and was compared to the predicate device and found it be similar.

Further, TiXos dental implants also underwent extensive validation activities for biocompatibility, cleaning, packaging, shelf-life and sterilization in accordance with Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff -Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments, and all applicable recognized FDA consensus standards for dental implants, including but not limited to, ISO 10993-5, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices - Part 5: Test for in vitro Cytotoxicity.

Clinical Data: As part of demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of its TiXos dental implants, Leader Italia submitted a prospective summary report, and radiographic images, to the FDA that were part of its European clinical study and represent follow-up data for their implants at different time intervals after the implants were loaded with their prosthetic abutments. Results of this clinical information have been published in a number of peer reviewed scientific dental journals as shown below.

Predicate Device Comparison

Aside from the slight differences in sizes (i.e., diameter and length) between TiXos and the predicate implants, TiXos implants are manufactured using Leader Italia's Direct Laser Metal Forming process as opposed to the more conventional machining and acid etching techniques the company uses to produce its IMPLUS implants.

Both TiXos and IMPLUS implants are single use, permanent dental devices that are surgically placed in either the mandibular and/or maxillary dental arches of the patient; both implants are cleaned, enckaged and gamma sterilized in identical manners; use the same abutments that have been designed and manufactured by Leader Italia, and have identical implant-to-abutment interface connections; and can be implanted using the same surgical instruments.

Some select properties and characteristics of the subject and predicate devices are compared side-byside as shown below.

Non-Clinical Data - Bench Testing & Device Validations

As part of demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of TiXos dental implants and in showing substantial equivalence to its IMPLUS implants, Leader Italia submitted a number of its dental implants for fatigue testing in accordance with ISO 14801, Dentistry - Implants - Dynamic Fatigue Test for Endosseous Dental Implants, where their implants were tested in dry (i.e., air) environment. Testing was performed on the TiXos dental implants to simulate worst-case loading conditions and was compared to the predicate device and found it be similar.

Further, TiXos dental implants also underwent extensive validation activities for biocompatibility, cleaning, packaging, shelf-life and sterilization in accordance with Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff -Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments, and all applicable recognized FDA consensus standards for dental implants, including but not limited to, ISO 10993-5, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices - Part 5: Test for in vitro Cytotoxicity.

Clinical Data

As part of demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of its TiXos dental implants, Leader Italia submitted a prospective summary report, and radiographic images, to the FDA that were part of its European clinical study and represent follow-up data for their implants at different time intervals after the implants were loaded with their prosthetic abutments. Results of this clinical information have been published in a number of peer reviewed scientific dental journals as shown below.

Substantially Equivalence

By definition, a device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device when the device has the same intended use and the same technological characteristics as the previously cleared predicate device, or has the same intended use and different technological characteristics, but it can be demonstrated that the new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, and that the new device does not raise different questions regarding its safety and effectiveness compared to the predicate device.

It has been shown in this 510(k) submission that the differences between the TiXos and IMPLUS dental implants do not raise any questions regarding its safety and effectiveness. Leader Italia's TiXos Implant System, as designed and manufactured, is therefore determined to be substantially equivalent to their IMPLUS Implant System previously cleared under K062931.
