Intended Use

The Meg-Ball Attachment System, Meg-Loc Abutment, Meg-Magnet is intended to be used in the upper or lower jaw and used for supporting tooth replacements to restore chewing function. Intended for fully edentulous jaw retaining a tissue supported overdenture.

The abutments in combination with endosseous implants are used as the foundation for anchoring tooth replacements in either jaw. The attachments are used in fixed overdenture restorations that can be attached with a snap-in system.

Device Description

Meg-Ball Attachment System, Meg-Loc Abutment, Meg-Magnet Abutment is a superstructure of a dental implant system to provide support for prosthetic restorations. It is intended to be used in implant-retained and removable overdenture restorations where the patient is fully edentulous. The subject device is consisted of the following devices: Meg-Ball Abutment, Metal Housing (Metal Cap, Retentive Ring), Meg-Loc Abutment, and Meg-Magnet Abutment.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a dental device, which aims to demonstrate that a new device is substantially equivalent to existing legally marketed devices. It is not a clinical study report for an AI/ML-driven medical device. Therefore, it does not contain the information required to answer the questions about acceptance criteria for AI performance and study details as it pertains to AI/ML development and validation.

The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence through:

  • Comparison of Device Characteristics: Tables comparing the new device's components (Meg-Ball Abutment, Metal Cap, Retentive Ring, Meg-Loc Abutment, Meg-Magnet Abutment) against predicate and reference devices in terms of material, design, dimensions, and intended use.
  • Non-Clinical Testing: A summary of physical property tests (e.g., retentive force), biocompatibility tests (ISO 10993 standards), and surface treatment analysis, which are standard for demonstrating the safety and performance of physical medical devices.
  • No Clinical Testing: Explicitly states "No clinical studies are submitted."

Thus, there is no AI acceptance criteria or study proving AI performance to report based on the provided text.

§ 872.3630 Endosseous dental implant abutment.

(a)
Identification. An endosseous dental implant abutment is a premanufactured prosthetic component directly connected to the endosseous dental implant and is intended for use as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). 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.)
