Intended Use
The Neodent Implant System is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, to restore chewing function. It may be used with single-stage or two-stage procedures, for single or multiple unit restorations, and may be loaded immediately when good primary stability is achieved and with appropriate occlusal loading. The Neodent GM Helix LG implants can be placed bicortically in cases of reduced bone density. The Neodent GM Helix LG implants are only indicated for multiple unit restorations in splinted applications that utilize at least two implants.
Device Description
The subject dental implant devices are single use devices, provided sterile by Gamma Radiation, made of commercially pure Titanium grade 4 (ASTM F67 – ISO 5832-2). The GM Helix LG Implant is a long conical implant with external diameters of 3.75 and 4.0 mm and lengths of 20, 22.5 and 25 mm. It has trapezoidal threads, conical apex with spherical tip and helical chambers, cylindrical body and Grand Morse prosthetic interface. The GM Helix LG implants share the same design characteristics as the existing GM Helix but are longer than the previously cleared range of implants. Indicated to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, to restore chewing function.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a standard dental implant system and its mechanical and biological performance. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would suggest the use of AI or ML.

No.
A therapeutic device is typically understood to alleviate or cure a disease or medical condition. While this device restores chewing function, which can improve quality of life, dental implants are generally considered prosthetic devices rather than devices that treat a disease or condition. Its primary function is to support prosthetic teeth to restore function, not to treat a disease.

No
The device is a dental implant system designed to support prosthetic devices for restoring chewing function. Its intended use and description do not involve diagnosing any condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical dental implant made of titanium, intended for surgical placement. It also describes physical characteristics like external diameters, lengths, and threads. The performance studies described are physical tests (fatigue, torsion, insertion, pull-out) and sterilization/biocompatibility, not software validation.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is "surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, to restore chewing function." This describes a surgical implant used for structural support within the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a "dental implant device" made of titanium, designed for surgical placement.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. IVDs are typically used in a laboratory or clinical setting to analyze biological samples.

Therefore, the Neodent Implant System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Jennifer M. Jackson:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE DISCUSSION

The subject devices and the primary predicate device have equivalent intended use and Indications for Use statements. Both can be placed single or bicortically in mandible or maxilla. The subject devices and the primary predicate devices also share the same material of composition, the same sterilization method and range of length and present similar designs and platform diameter. The difference between the subject devices and the predicate devices is the Ø3.75 mm device. This change in technology is supported by the torsion test and pull out test, both included as appendices of this submission. The subject devices have the same thread design and the same implant-to-abutment interface design as the reference predicate devices.

PERFORMANCE DATA

Dynamic fatigue test per ISO 14801 was performed to determine the fatigue strength for implant construct assembled with prosthetic abutment for multi-unit prosthesis, assembled with GM Helix LG Implants, according to FDA Guidance.

Torsion Test was performed to evaluate the GM Helix LG Implant under static torsional loading. Insertion test was performed to evaluate the insertion torque of the GM Helix LG Implant when inserted into sawbones material representing bone type II, III and IV.

Pull-out testing was performed to compare the Axial Pull-out Strength between the subject devices and the predicate devices.

Sterilization of the subject implants via gamma irradiation using a protocol of 25 kGy minimum dose has been performed according to the requirements established by ISO 11137-2. A minimum Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 1 x 10 ° has beenvalidated.

Biological Safety Assessment guided by ISO 10993-1, Cytotoxicity guided by ISO 10993-5 and Chemical characterization guided by ISO 10993-18 were performed for GM Helix LG implants. Biocompatibility sample preparation was performed per ISO 10993-12.

CONCLUSION

The data included in this submission demonstrate that the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
