Intended Use
The Biomet Microfixation OmniMax MMF System is indication of mandibular and maxillary fractures to maintain proper occlusion during surgery and for post-operative fracture healing in adults and adolescents (age 12 and older) in whom permanent teeth have erupted.
Device Description
The Biomet Microfixation OmniMax MMF System is composed of metallic plates (arch bars) and locking screws that provide temporary stabilization of mandibular and maxillary bone during fracture healing and/or temporarily maintain a stable occlusion during surgery. Mandibular and Maxillary Fixation (MMF) is achieved through application of fixation plates and locking screws to bone; wire or elastics are then secured around hooks. The OmniMax MMF system includes a fixation plate (also known as an arch bar) that has an in-plane bend to provide an initial approximation of mandibular and maxillary anatomy. The plate also features slots for locking screw fixation. These slots allow for a maximum of 12 fixation points in the bone as well as screw placement variation within the slot to avoid tooth roots. The OmniMax locking screws are 2.0mm in diameter and vary in length from 7mm to 11mm. The screw head also features a low-profile design to minimize irritation and palpability.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on mechanical components (plates, screws, wires, elastics) for bone fixation and occlusion maintenance. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes.
The device maintains proper occlusion during surgery and for post-operative fracture healing, which constitutes a therapeutic function.

No
The device is described as a system of metallic plates and screws used for temporary stabilization and fixation of mandibular and maxillary bones during fracture healing or surgery, not for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly states it is composed of metallic plates (arch bars) and locking screws, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide temporary stabilization of mandibular and maxillary bone during fracture healing and/or temporarily maintain a stable occlusion during surgery. This is a surgical device used to physically fix bones.
  • Device Description: The device is composed of metallic plates and locking screws that are applied to bone. This is consistent with a surgical implant/fixation device.
  • 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 screening.

Therefore, the Biomet Microfixation OmniMax MMF System falls under the category of a surgical device for bone fixation, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Lauren Jasper:

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.

Device Description: Biomet Microfixation manufactures and distributes the Biomet Microfixation OmniMax MMF System. The Biomet Microfixation OmniMax MMF System is composed of metallic plates (arch bars) and locking screws that provide temporary stabilization of mandibular and maxillary bone during fracture healing and/or temporarily maintain a stable occlusion during surgery. Mandibular and Maxillary Fixation (MMF) is achieved through application of fixation plates and locking screws to bone; wire or elastics are then secured around hooks.

The OmniMax MMF system includes a fixation plate (also known as an arch bar) that has an in-plane bend to provide an initial approximation of mandibular and maxillary anatomy. The plate also features slots for locking screw fixation. These slots allow for a maximum of 12 fixation points in the bone as well as screw placement variation within the slot to avoid tooth roots. The OmniMax locking screws are 2.0mm in diameter and vary in length from 7mm to 11mm. The screw head also features a low-profile design to minimize irritation and palpability.
