AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA regarding the "Neodent Implant System - GM Line." It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices, rather than an independent study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria in a clinical or performance study context.

Therefore, the information requested in your prompt (Acceptance Criteria, Study Design for proving performance, Sample Sizes, Expert consensus, MRMC studies, etc.) is not present in this document. This document details the comparison of the new device with existing ones based on:

  1. Indications for Use: The new device's indications align with or are subsumed by those of the predicates.
  2. Technological Characteristics: Materials, design features, sterilization methods, and compatibility are compared.
  3. Performance Data (Mechanical Testing and Biocompatibility): This section confirms that the materials meet established standards (ASTM, ISO) and that the device components (implants, abutments) have undergone mechanical fatigue testing according to ISO 14801 and FDA guidance. Biocompatibility has been assessed for the materials used. However, it does not provide specific acceptance criteria or detailed results of these tests, simply stating that the performance is "equivalent" to predicate devices.

Summary of missing information based on your prompt:

  • Table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance: Not provided in a quantifiable manner for clinical performance. Only mentions "equivalent" mechanical performance based on ISO standards.
  • Sample sizes for test set and data provenance: No clinical test set involving human subjects is described. Mechanical tests likely involved specific numbers of devices, but these are not disclosed.
  • Number of experts and qualifications for ground truth: Not applicable as no clinical ground truth assessment is detailed.
  • Adjudication method for test set: Not applicable.
  • MRMC comparative effectiveness study: Not conducted or reported. This submission relies on substantial equivalence to existing devices, not a comparative clinical trial with human readers/outcomes.
  • Standalone performance (algorithm only): Not applicable as this is a physical medical device (dental implant system), not an AI algorithm.
  • Type of ground truth used: For regulatory purposes, the "ground truth" for this submission is established through comparison to legally marketed predicate devices and adherence to relevant industry standards (ISO, ASTM) and FDA guidance for mechanical and biocompatibility testing. No clinical "ground truth" derived from patient outcomes or expert consensus on images is mentioned regarding the device's function.
  • Sample size for training set: Not applicable as this is not an AI/ML device.
  • How ground truth for training set was established: Not applicable.

In conclusion, this document demonstrates regulatory compliance and substantial equivalence through a comparison of device characteristics and a statement of meeting mechanical and biocompatibility standards, rather than presenting a detailed study proving the device meets specific, quantifiable clinical acceptance criteria.

5.3 Technological Characteristics

The subject and the predicate devices have a range of dental implants and abutments with the same indication of providing solutions for teeth replacement, restoring chewing function.

The subject and predicate devices are based on the following same technological elements:

  • -Root-form implants intended to replace natural tooth root;
  • -Endosseous dental abutments to provide support for temporary or permanent restorations;
  • -Possibility of use in single or two-stage procedures, for single or multiple-unit restorations;
  • -Implants and conventional and CAD/CAM abutments made of the same material;
  • -Same sterilization methods and packaging for implants, conventional and CAD/CAM abutments.

The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate devices:

  • A new design of Morse taper implant-to-abutment interface is presented; -
  • -A new design of implant thread was developed to fit in all types of bone quality;
  • -The subject temporary abutment is provided sterile by EO exposition whereas its predicate device is provided non-sterile for end-user sterilization.

In the end of this Section, a comparison between the features of subject device and its predicate devices is shown in a tabular format. The assessment of the differences is also included.

5.4 Performance data

The following performance data supports the substantial equivalence determination:

Biocompatibility testing

The implants are made of unalloyed titanium, Grade 4, conforming to ASTM F67 Standard Specification for Unalloyed Titanium for Surgical Implant Applications (UNS R50250, UNS R50400, UNS R50550, UNS R50700). The conventional and CAD/CAM abutments are made of titanium ASTM F136 Standard Specification alloy conforming conforming to for Wrought Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) Alloy for Surgical Implant Applications (UNS R56401). The types of titanium are the same to that used for fabrication of the predicate devices cleared under K101945, K150182 and K153624. The subject devices undergo to the same manufacturing processes to the cited predicate devices.

The temporary abutments are made of PEEK. A chemical characterization of this material has been performed to identify leachable inorganic substances and extractable organic substances. Additionally, cytotoxicity analysis also has been performed.

The superstructures for titanium bases are made of zirconia, IPS e.max, Co-Cr and Lava Plus. Zirconia is conforming to ISO 13356 - Implants for surgery - Ceramic materials based on yttriastabilized tetragonal zirconia (Y-TZP), IPS e.max CAD (lithium disilicate) is conforming to ISO

JJGC Indústria e Comércio de Materiais Dentários S.A.

{8}------------------------------------------------

6872 - Dentistry - Ceramic Materials and Co-Cr is conforming to ISO 22674 - Dentistry - Metallic materials for fixed and removable restorations and appliances. These raw materials are the same already cleared for the reference predicate devices under K153624. Lava Plus is an yttrium stabilized zirconium oxide (Y-TZP) and complies with the requirements of ISO 6872 Dentistry -Ceramic Materials. Cytotoxicity testing was performed for this raw material and showed no proliferation inhibition. Also, Lava Plus has been cleared by FDA per K072055 for manufacturing of dental restorations through CAD/CAM technique.

Mechanical testing

The strength of the system is demonstrated through fatigue testing performed according to ISO 14801 - Dentistry - Implants - Dynamic fatique test for endosseous dental implants and FDA document Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff - Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments. The tested subject devices exhibit a level of performance equivalent to that reviewed for the predicate devices.

Sterilization validation

The subject implants are sterilized by Co60 gamma irradiation at a nominal dose of 25 kGy (2.5 Mrad). Sterilization has been validated by the VDmax® method, according to ISO 11137-1 Sterilization of health care products - Radiation - Part 1: Requirements for development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices and ISO 11137-2 Sterilization of health care products - Radiation - Part 2: Establishing the sterilization dose.

The subject abutments are sterilized by exposure to ethylene oxide (EO). Sterilization has been validated by the bioburden method, according to ISO 11135 Sterilization of health care products - Ethylene oxide - Requirements for the development, validation, and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices. EO sterilization residuals have been verified to be less than the maximum allowable limits as defined in ISO 10993-7 Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices - Part 7: Ethylene Oxide Sterilization Residuals.

The subject CAD/CAM superstructures are sterilized by moist heat (steam). The recommended sterilization has been validated according to ISO 17665-1 Sterilization of health care products – Moist heat - Part 1: Requirements for the development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices, and ISO/TS 17665-2 Sterilization of health care products - Moist heat - Part 2: Guidance on the application of ISO 17665-1.

§ 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.
