Intended Use

Dentium Ti-Base abutments are intended for use on Dentium endosseous dental implants in the edentulous or partially edentulous maxilla or mandible, as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation.

All digitally designed abutments for use with Dentium Ti-Base abutments are intended to be sent to a Dentium-validated milling center for manufacture.

Device Description

Dentium Ti-Base is a patient specific abutment fabricated by Dentium and composed of unalloyed titanium and zirconia ceramic. The Ti-Base has a titanium pre-manufactured precision abutment/implant interface and ceramic superstructure bonded to the post of the titanium base. Ti-Base is used for support of CAD/CAM fabricated zirconia superstructures or for support of hybrid crowns or bridges. Hybrid crowns or bridges and zirconia superstructures are manufactured by a Dentium validated milling center.

Ti-Base Abutments are available in two prosthetic diameters (4.5 and 5.5 mm) and four gingival heights (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mm). Each of the abutments is available indexed and non-indexed. All subject device abutments are compatible with Dentium and Dentium Superline dental implants.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Dentium Ti-Base dental abutment, establishing its substantial equivalence to previously marketed predicate devices. This type of submission relies on non-clinical performance data rather than extensive clinical studies with specific acceptance criteria as might be seen for novel devices.

Here's an analysis of the provided information concerning acceptance criteria and supporting studies:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria (What was measured)Device Performance (Result)
Sterilization ValidationAccording to ISO 17665-2 to an SAL of 10⁻⁶
CytotoxicityAccording to ISO 10993-5, determining the subject device is non-cytotoxic
Dynamic Compression-Bending StrengthAccording to ISO 14801, ensuring that the subject device is strong enough for its intended use (Specific values not provided)
Substantial Equivalence (Indications for Use)Determined to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices (K150367, K161713)
Substantial Equivalence (Design, Function, Material, Manufacture)Determined to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices, with minor differences in design dimensions and implant/abutment interface noted for K150367 and K161713. Materials are similar (Unalloyed Titanium ASTM F67, Zirconia ISO 13356).
Substantial Equivalence (Physical Dimensions)Encompasses the same range of physical dimensions (diameter, gingival height, angle of abutments) as predicate devices.

2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance

  • Test Set Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for any of the non-clinical tests. For ISO 14801, typical sample sizes are small (e.g., n=5 or n=10 per test condition), but this is not specified.
  • Data Provenance: The studies are non-clinical (laboratory/mechanical testing). The manufacturer is Dentium Co., Ltd. in the Republic of Korea. Therefore, the data originates from the manufacturer's testing or a contracted testing facility. All data is presumably prospective as it was generated to support the 510(k) submission.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth

  • This information is not applicable as the studies are non-clinical performance tests for a device seeking substantial equivalence, not a diagnostic algorithm requiring expert-established ground truth. The "ground truth" for these tests is defined by the standards (ISO 17665-2, ISO 10993-5, ISO 14801).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • This information is not applicable as the studies are non-clinical performance tests and do not involve human adjudication for a "test set" in the context of diagnostic assessment.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The device is a physical dental abutment, not a diagnostic AI system that would assist human readers.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

  • No, a standalone (algorithm only) performance study was not done. The device is a physical medical device. The "digitally designed abutments" mentioned refer to CAD/CAM processes used in manufacturing, but this is a manufacturing method, not an AI algorithm requiring standalone performance evaluation in the medical sense.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • The "ground truth" applied here is primarily established international standards for medical device testing (e.g., ISO 17665-2 for sterilization, ISO 10993-5 for cytotoxicity, ISO 14801 for mechanical strength). For substantial equivalence, the performance is compared against the characteristics of legally marketed predicate devices.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • This information is not applicable. The device is a physical product, not an AI/ML algorithm that is "trained" on a dataset. The manufacturing process might involve CAD/CAM software, but this is distinct from an AI training set.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • This information is not applicable as there is no "training set" in the context of an AI/ML algorithm.

Dear Linda Schulz:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

The subject device Ti-Base is substantially equivalent to the predicate Neodent Titanium Base Abutment cleared in K150367 in design, function, material, manufacture and intended use. Both are titanium abutment for support of direct crowns/bridges or CAD/CAM fabricated zirconia copings manufactured by a validated milling center. Differences between the subject device and predicate device are in the design dimensions and implant/abutment interface.

{6}------------------------------------------------

All subject device abutments are by prescription order from a clinician, and have the same implant/abutment interface as the predicate K161713. Subject device abutments are compatible with Dentium Implantium (K041368) and Dentium SuperLine (K160965) dental implants.

The Indications for Use of the subject device is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared Intended Use in K150367. The Indications for Use Statement in K150367 includes two abutment designs (TiBase and Preface) and names the individual restoration options. The Indications for Use Statement for the subject device is for one device and does not list the individual restoration options. Minor differences in wording between the Indications for Use Statements do not affect the intended use of a dental abutment placed on a dental implant for prosthetic restoration.

The Indications for Use of the subject device is substantially equivalent as Dentium CAD/CAM Abutments in K161713, with the only difference being in the proprietary name of the device.

CONCLUSION

The subject device and the predicate devices have intended use, have similar technological characteristics, and are made of similar materials. The subject device and predicate devices encompass the same range of physical dimensions, including diameter, gingival height, and angle of the abutments. The subject and predicate devices are packaged in similar materials and are to be sterilized using similar methods.

The data included in this submission demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices listed above.
