Intended Use

"ComMed" Series Dental Implant System is intended for surgical placement in the maxilla or mandible to provide for prosthetic attachment to restore a patient's chewing function. "ComMed" Series Dental Implants are intended only for delayed loading.

Device Description

The Chang Gung "ComMed" Series Dental Implant System includes threaded root-form endosseous dental implants (fixtures) and dental implant abutments (healing abutment, standard abutment, angle abutment). The implants are cylindrical and tapered posts made of Grade 4 Pure Titanium. The abutments are made of Ti6Al4V. The system features an internal hex with Morse Taper 8° connection, platform switching, and fine thread in the neck. Various diameters (3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0 mm) and lengths (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 mm) are available for the implants. The surface treatment is blasted with Aluminum Oxide and Acid Etched, and it is also anodized. Implants are sterilized by Gamma irradiation, and abutments are sterilized by moist heat sterilization before use by clinicians.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the Chang Gung "ComMed" Series Dental Implant System and its clearance through the 510(k) pathway, which establishes substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices. This type of submission relies on demonstrating that the new device is as safe and effective as existing ones, rather than providing extensive de novo clinical trials typical for novel medical devices. Therefore, the information provided focuses on non-clinical testing rather than studies involving human subjects, AI performance, or expert ground truth.

Here's a breakdown based on your requested information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria in numerical terms for the non-clinical tests. Instead, it refers to conformity with relevant ISO and ASTM standards. The reported device performance is that it met these standards, supporting substantial equivalence.

Test CategoryTest PerformedRelevant Standard(s)Reported Device Performance
BiocompatibilityIn vitro cytotoxicity study, Intracutaneous reactivity study, Skin sensitization study, Acute systemic toxicity, Pyrogenicity study, 14-day repeated dose systemic toxicity study, In vitro haemolysis study, In vitro bacterial reverse mutation (AMES) study, In vitro chromosome aberration study, In vitro mammalian cell gene mutation study, Bone formation and histological study (for Implant/Abutment)ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10, ISO 10993-11, ISO 10993-4, ISO 10993-3, ISO 10993-6Conformed to relevant ISO standards, supporting biocompatibility. (Implied: accepted by FDA)

(Implied: accepted by FDA)

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

  • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated in the provided text. The non-clinical testing described typically involves specific numbers of samples (e.g., implants, abutments, packaging units) tested in a lab setting, but these quantities are not detailed.
  • Data Provenance: The tests are non-clinical, meaning they are lab-based or in-vitro/in-vivo animal studies (for biocompatibility in some cases, though specific animal models are not detailed). The testing was conducted to support the substantial equivalence submission for a device manufactured by Chang Gung Medical Technology Co., Ltd. in Taiwan.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

This question is not applicable in the context of this 510(k) submission. The "test set" here refers to the physical devices and materials subjected to non-clinical tests, not a dataset requiring human expert annotation for ground truth. The evaluation of compliance with standards is done by testing laboratories and regulatory bodies.

4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable. This concept typically refers to how disagreements among human reviewers (e.g., radiologists) are resolved in clinical studies or AI evaluations. For engineering and biocompatibility testing, the "adjudication" is based on whether the test results meet the specified criteria of the referenced standards.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This device is a dental implant system (hardware), not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool. Therefore, MRMC studies or AI performance metrics are not relevant to its evaluation.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable, as this device is not an algorithm or AI system.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

Not applicable. The "ground truth" for this device's non-clinical testing is adherence to the specified performance characteristics as defined by international standards (ISO, ASTM) for mechanical strength, biocompatibility, sterility, and packaging integrity.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. Training sets are relevant for machine learning algorithms, which this device is not.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable.

4.5 Substantial Equivalence

Substantially equivalence is claimed to the following legally marketed predicate device: STRAUMANN DENTAL IMPLANT SYSTEM (K033984) and reference device: FRIADENT Implant Systems – XiVE® S Plus Dental Implant System (K073075) and MIS DENTAL IMPLANT SYSTEM (K040807). The above comparison table lists the primary technological characteristics and specifications that are pertinent to Dental Implant Systems. Based on the comparison analysis, the proposed device is identical to the predicate and reference devices in terms of intended use, materials, surface treatment, sterilization method, and comparable technological characteristics and general design features.

All minor differences in design features (connection type, platform switching and micro-thread at implant neck) exist between the subject and the predicate and reference devices have been evaluated per the testing described in section 4.6 (non-clinical testing) following the recommendations in the "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implant and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments" . The results of non-clinical testing support that these minor differences do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness.

It is concluded that the Chang Gung "ComMed" Series Dental Implant System is substantially equivalent to the predicate and reference devices.

These devices have been evaluated using non-clinical performance and bench testing. This testing included static and dynamic mechanical loading, biocompatibility testing, sterilization validation, and packaging life validation. The technological characteristics of this device system do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. The information included in this submission supports the substantial equivalence of the Chang Gung "ComMed" Series Dental Implant System to the identified predicate and reference devices for its intended use.

§ 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;
