More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a physical dental implant abutment made of PEEK material. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational processing that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No.
The device is a premanufactured prosthetic component intended for provisional use as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation, not for treating a disease or condition itself.

No

The device is a premanufactured prosthetic component (abutment) used to aid in prosthetic rehabilitation, not for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical component (abutment) made of PEEK material, intended for direct connection to dental implants. It also mentions titanium retaining screws. This indicates a hardware device, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The Southern Implants PEEK Abutments are physical components that are directly connected to dental implants within the patient's mouth. They are used for prosthetic rehabilitation.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for provisional use as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation, which is a clinical procedure performed on the patient.

The device is a medical device used in vivo (within the body), not an in vitro diagnostic device used to test samples outside the body.

Dear Lauranda Breytenbach:

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.
