Intended Use

MIS V3 Conical Connection Dental Implant System 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 masticatory function. When a one-stage surgical procedure is applied, the implant may be immediately loaded when good primary stability is achieved and the occlusal load is appropriate. Narrow implants (Ø3.3mm) are indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement only in the mandibular central, lateral incisor and maxillary lateral incisor regions of partially edentulous jaws, to provide support for prosthetic devices such as artificial teeth, in order to restore the patient chewing function. Mandibular central and lateral incisors must be splinted if using two or more narrow implants adjacent to one another.

Device Description

The MIS V3 Conical Connection implants are manufactured from titanium (Ti-6Al-4V ELI complying with standard ASTM F136-13 - Standard Specification for Wrought Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) Alloy for Surgical Implant). The cylinder screw type implants are designed for both two-stage and single stage procedures, with one internal thread for screwed abutment. They have an internal conical connection with an anti-rotation index of six directions for Standard Platform Implants and three directions for Narrow Platform Implants. The implants are self-tapping, root-form with tapered threads. They feature a tri-surface crestal contact, built-in platform switching and a flat apex enabling grip into bone. The MIS V3 Conical Connection Implants are provided in 3.3, 3.9, 4.3 and 5.0 mm diameters and with the following lengths: 3.3 mm diameter: 10mm, 11.5mm, 13mm and 16mm; 3. 9mm diameter: 8mm, 10mm, 11.5mm, 13mm and 16mm; 4.3mm diameter: 8mm, 10mm, 11.5mm, 13mm and 16mm; 5.0mm diameter: 8mm, 10mm, 11.5mm, 13mm and 16mm. The implants surface is sand blasted and acid etched. The MIS V3 Conical Connection Dental Implant System is to be used in combination with a wide range of abutments provided in order to aid in the prosthetic rehabilitation. For a quick identification of the diameters and to ensure the adequate abutments (cover screws, healing caps, cement- retained abutments, gold abutments, OT-Equators & ball attachments, Multi unit abutments and Temporary Ti and Peek Abutments), the internal part of the implant is anodized for coloring purposes as follows: "Narrow Platform" (NP) – 3.3mm diameter: blue; "Standard Platform"(SP) - 3.9mm, 4.3mm and 5.0 diameters: purple. The MIS V3 Conical Connection Implant package comes with a sterile, single-use final drill (packaged in a sterile pouch).

These abutments are manufactured with a conical connection, ensuring compatibility to the conical connection implants.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a dental implant system (MIS V3 Conical Connection Dental Implant System) and focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria based on a clinical study of its performance. The document primarily details mechanical and material equivalency, as well as biocompatibility and sterilization, as opposed to performance metrics that would typically arise from an AI/ML-based medical device.

Therefore, many of the requested items (acceptance criteria table, sample size for test set, expert involvement, adjudication, MRMC study, standalone performance, ground truth types, training set details) are not applicable to this document as it pertains to a physical dental implant, not an AI/ML device requiring such performance studies.

However, I can extract and present the acceptance criteria for mechanical performance and the study that proves the device meets those from the document, as it is a physical device and not an AI/ML algorithm.

Here's the information that can be extracted relevant to the device's mechanical and material acceptance:


Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for MIS V3 Conical Connection Dental Implant System

The "acceptance criteria" for this dental implant system are implicitly defined by proving its substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, particularly regarding mechanical performance and material properties. The primary study proving this is Fatigue Testing per ISO 14801:2007, which is a standard for dental implants.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria (Implicit from Predicate Equivalence) and Reported Device Performance:

Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Equivalence to Predicates)Reported Device Performance (MIS V3 System)
Material: Biocompatible and equivalent to predicates.Manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI (ASTM F136-13), same as pre-cleared predicate (K112162). Higher tensile strength compared to some predicates using CP Titanium.
Fatigue Strength: Withstand mechanical loads for long-term use (aligned with ISO 14801:2007).Withstood 5,000,000 cycles without failure at a substantially equivalent load to cited predicates per ISO 14801:2007. This was tested for both narrow and standard platform implants and abutments.
Sterilization: Achieve a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10^-6.Achieved SAL of 10^-6 per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137-1:06 and EN ISO 11137-2:12. Steam sterilization validated per ISO 17665-1:2006.
Shelf Life: Maintain integrity and sterility after aging.Successful results from real-time aged implants (at least five years) with no growth determined for sterility.
Risk Profile: Risks are acceptable and as low as reasonably possible.Risk analysis conducted per ISO 14971; all risks determined acceptable.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

  • Test Set (for Fatigue Testing): The specific number of implants/abutments used in the fatigue test is not explicitly stated as a "sample size" in the document, but it's implied that sufficient samples were tested to demonstrate compliance with ISO 14801:2007.
  • Data Provenance: The tests were conducted internally by MIS Implants Technologies Ltd. and by an "independent testing laboratory" for shelf-life testing. The country of origin for the data is not explicitly stated beyond Israel (MIS Implants Technologies Ltd. is based in Israel) for the company and general international standards for the testing. The data is prospective in the sense that the tests were performed specifically for this 510(k) submission.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications:

  • N/A. This information is relevant for studies involving human interpretation or clinical outcomes for AI/ML devices. For a physical device demonstrating mechanical and material properties, "ground truth" is established by adherence to recognized international standards (e.g., ISO for mechanical testing, AAMI/ISO for sterilization), and expert judgment is inherent in the development and validation of these standards, not typically in individual "readers" of test results.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • N/A. Adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1) are primarily used in clinical studies or expert review processes for AI/ML performance evaluation. For mechanical and sterilization testing, the "adjudication" is the pass/fail result based on the quantitative measurements against the standard's criteria.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:

  • No. An MRMC study is specific to evaluating the clinical effectiveness of a diagnostic tool (often imagery-based) with and without AI assistance, involving multiple human readers. This document is for a physical dental implant.

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

  • No. This question applies to AI/ML algorithms. The performance assessment here is for the physical device itself (mechanical, material properties).

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • For mechanical and physical properties (fatigue, material composition, sterility, shelf-life), the "ground truth" is adherence to established international standards and engineering specifications (e.g., ISO 14801:2007, ASTM F136-13, ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137-1:06, EN ISO 11137-2:12, ISO 17665-1:2006, ISO 14971). Pathological or outcomes data (clinical ground truth) was not required for this 510(k) as per section 9.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • N/A. This term is relevant for AI/ML models. This is a physical device.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:

  • N/A. This term is relevant for AI/ML models.

  • "Narrow Platform"(NP) – 3.3mm diameter, blue
  • . "Standard Platform"(SP) - 3.9mm, 4.3mm and 5.0 diameters: purple

6. Indications for Use

MIS V3 Conical Connection dental implant system 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 masticatory function.

When a one-stage surgical procedure is applied, the implant may be immediately loaded when good primary stability is achieved and the occlusal load is appropriate.

Narrow implants (Ø3.3mm) are indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement only in the mandibular central, lateral incisor and maxillary lateral incisor regions of partially edentulous jaws, to provide support for prosthetic devices such as artificial teeth, in order to restore the patient chewing function. Mandibular central and lateral incisors must be splinted if using two or more narrow implants adjacent to one another.

7. Substantial Equivalence Discussion

The Indications for Use statement for the subject device is not identical to the predicate device; however, the differences do not alter the intended use of the device nor do they affect the safety and effectiveness of the device relative to the predicate. Both the subject and predicate devices are intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches for anchoring or supporting tooth replacement to restore chewing function, in partially or fully edentulous patients.

The main difference is in the subject device's indication for narrow platform implants, regarding the need for splinting mandibular central and lateral incisors when using two or more narrow implants

adjacent to one another. We believe this indication only improves the safety of the narrow implants as compared to the predicate device and does not alter the intended use.

The subject and predicate devices have the same intended use and similar indications for use. Their geometrical design is similar with minor differences which do not raise different safety or efficacy questions. The following tables compare the MIS V3 Conical Connection Dental Implant System to the predicate devices with respect to indications for use, principles of operation, technological characteristics and materials.

Under each table is a discussion of the differences and similarities.

The length range of the subject 3.3 mm MIS V3 is 10 -16 mm. which is within the range of the predicate (8 – 17 mm).

Although the diameter of the subject device is 3.3 mm, it possesses at least equivalent strength as tested and compared to the predicate device of larger diameter (3.5 mm), likely due to the use of Ti alloy (ASTM F136) which has a higher tensile strength compared to the predicate which uses C.P. Ti grade 4. Despite the difference in the connections provide a locking mechanism for a tight fit. Similarly, although there are minor differences in threading, body design (tapered vs. cylindrical), neck design and surface treatment, these differences do not raise different safety or efficacy Fatigue testing per ISO 14801:2007 assessed the impact of these differences and questions. demonstrates at least equivalent performance.

The ASTRA TECH predicate has a cylindrical body design, and an internal, double hex conical connection. The subject device and C1 predicate are both made from Ti-6Al-4V ELI while the ASTRA TECH OsseoSpeed TX S is made from CP Titanium grade 4. Although there are minor differences in diameter, threading, apex and neck design, these differences are common endosseous implants and do not raise different safety or efficacy questions. Fatigue testing per ISO 14801:2007 assessed the impact of these differences and demonstrates at least equivalent performance, as demonstrated in the performance testing for the subject V3 Conical Connection Implants and for the predicates C1 and ASTRA TECH OsseoSpeed TX S.

Both subject and predicate devices have similar indications, and while there are differences in wording, both are indicated for one or two stage surgical procedures, for either cement or screw retained restorations, with the purpose of restoring chewing function. The length range of the subject 5.0 mm MIS V3 is 8 -16 mm. which is within the range of the predicate ANKYLOS (6.6 - 17 mm). They share a tapered body design, similar conical connection with the same number of indexes, and undergo similar surface treatment with the exception of anodization treatment to internal part of the subject device's implant. Although the subject device's diameter of 5.0 mm is smaller than the predicate (5.5 mm), and there are minor differences in threading, apex and neck design, fatigue testing per ISO 14801:2007 assessed the impact of these differences and demonstrates at least equivalent performance. The difference in the materials between the subject and predicate devices, does not affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject device since Titanium-6Al-4V ELI alloy, has a higher tensile strength compared to the predicate's material, CP-Titanium grade 2.

Healing caps, cover screws, cement retained abutments, gold abutments, OT-equators and ball attachments were compared to equivalent MIS conical connection abutments, which share the same indications, are made of the same materials, are manufactured in the same facility with the same manufacturing conditions and undergo the same surface treatments. The differences between the subject and predicate devices are additional platforms and diameters, with no new gingival heights or angulations. The new narrow platform abutments and differences in diameter were performance tested with their compatible implant and showed at least equivalent performance to the predicates and therefore did not raise new issues of safety and effectiveness.

Temporary abutments and multi-units were compared to Nobel Biocare's temporary abutments and multi-units. The temporary abutments share similar intended use, materials and angulations, and are both intended for up to 180 days of use. The multi units share similar intended use, materials and angulations. Both temporary abutments and multi units differ from their predicates in connection type but both of the connection types provide a locking mechanism for a tight fit. The subject multi-units were fatigue tested and met the pre-determined success criteria. The differences between subject and predicate devices did not alter the intended use and new issues of safety and effectiveness were not raised.

number of non-clinical performance tests. The MIS V3 Conical Connection Dental Implant System was tested in accordance with internal requirements, national standards, and international standards shown below to support substantial equivalence of the subject device:

  • . Biocompatibility - The subject device is manufactured using identical manufacturing methods, in the same manufacturing facility, and using the same raw material as the previously cleared predicate, K112162. The subject device is sterilized and packaged using identical materials and processing as the predicate, K112162. Finally the subject device has the same intended use, patient contact duration and type as the predicate, K112162. For these reasons, biocompatibility testing was not required to support the substantial equivalence of the subject device.
  • . Fatigue Testing - Mechanical testing of MIS V3 implants and abutments in accordance to ISO 14801:2007 was conducted. The test articles were able to withstand 5,000,000 cycles without failure at a substantially equivalent load to the cited predicates.
  • . Sterilization Testing - Sterilization tests were conducted in compliance with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137-1:06 and EN ISO 11137-2:12 for the MIS V3 Conical Connection Dental Implant System. Test results have demonstrated that the SAL of 10-6 was achieved and all testing requirements were met. Steam sterilization parameters were validated for 2 methods: gravity displacement and pre-vacuum sterilization. The studies were conducted in accordance with ISO 17665-1:2006 and demonstrated a SAL of 10 °.
  • Shelf Life Testing - Shelf life testing of real-time aged implants to validate the integrity of the final package was completed by an independent testing laboratory. Test results were successful and consisted of a sterility testing of product which had been aged real-time for at least five years. No growth was determined for the samples provided for this testing. Additional burst testing had been completed by contract packager.
  • . Risk Analysis - Risk analysis for MIS implants was conducted in accordance with ISO 14971, Medical Devices: Application of Risk Analysis, for medical devices. It was determined by MIS that all risks associated with MIS implants were acceptable and as low as reasonably possible.

9. Clinical Performance Data

There was no human clinical testing required to support the medical device as the indications for use is equivalent to the predicate device. The non-clinical testing detailed in this submission supports the substantial equivalence of the device.

10. Summary

The comparison between the subject device and the predicate devices has shown that the indications for use, principles of operation, technological characteristics and materials were similar, and that the differences did not raise new safety and effectiveness issues. Furthermore, performance testing showed that the predicate device is at least equivalent to the predicates by means of performance.
