More Information

No
The document describes a dental implant system and its components. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The focus is on the physical properties, materials, and mechanical performance of the implants and abutments.

Yes
The device, an Implant System, is surgically placed to support prosthetic devices to restore chewing function, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No

This device, the NUVO CF Implant System, is intended for surgical placement in the maxilla or mandible to provide support for prosthetic devices (like artificial teeth) to restore chewing function. It is a therapy/treatment device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly details physical components such as implants, cover screws, and abutments made of titanium and other materials, which are surgically implanted. This is not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant system for supporting prosthetic devices in the mouth to restore chewing function. This is a therapeutic and restorative purpose, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device components (implants, cover screws, abutments) are all physical structures designed for surgical implantation and mechanical support. They do not involve the examination of specimens derived from the human body for diagnostic purposes.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or prognosis of a disease or condition
    • Using reagents or calibrators

The device is a medical device, specifically a dental implant system, but it falls under the category of surgical and prosthetic devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

The scope of the Indications for Use Statement for the subject devices (Implants and Conventional Abutments) are equivalent to the corresponding section of the Indications for Use Statement of the primary predicate device K193234, only with greater separation between product categories. The main language difference is in the indication for use of the Attachment Equator and Attachment Removable Prosthesis, since the indication presented to these devices are specific to the products, and therefore recommended for multiple restorations only. The indication for use presented to the predicate devices is applicable for all the implant system, and therefore recommended for both types of restorations. However, the subject devices are covered by the predicate devices since the predicate indication for use is more comprehensive.

The Indications for Use Statement for the subject device (Titanium Base for Crown and Titanium Base for Bridge abutments) are equivalent to the corresponding section of the Indications for Use Statement of K193234, except for the names of the devices and the greater separation between product categories. The language difference between the indications for use occurs again due to the indication applied to the reference devices being more comprehensive, for both types of bases. While for the subject devices the indication is presented separately and specific for each type of base in the Indications for Use Statement form.

The indication for use for the subject device (CF CARES® ABUTMENT) was not initially included in the Indications for Use Statement and is being added in this review.

A comparison of the technological characteristics of the subject device and the predicate and reference devices is provided in the following table.

NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA

Biocompatibility

Biological Safety Assessment for the subject devices was guided by ISO 10993-1 and FDA guidance. Biocompatibility for the subject devices was leveraged from the primary predicate K193234 and reference predicate K173961.

Package transport integrity testing has been performed per ISTA 2A.

Product and package stability have been validated per ASTM F1980.

The implant and abutment surfaces are the same as the cleared predicate devices.

Bench testing

Dynamic fatigue test per ISO 14801 and FDA guidance was performed to determine the fatigue strength for the worst-case constructs assembled using the subject devices.

MRI compatibility testing was leveraged from the reference device K182620.

Sterilization validation

Sterilization of the subject endosseous dental implant devices via gamma irradiation was validated per ISO 11137-1 and ISO 11137-2. A minimum Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 1 x 10th has been validated. Sterilization of the subject abutments via ethylene oxide gas was validated per ISO 11135. A minimum Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 1 x 10-6 has been validated.

The Subject devices are not represented to be "pyrogen free".

Ethylene oxide residuals have been assessed per ISO 10993-7. Residuals are within accepted limits.

Bacterial Endotoxin Testing are performed on representative samples selected and tested based upon the raw material, manufacturing processes and sterilization process, according to ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011, Bacterial Endotoxins – Test Methods, Routine Monitoring and Alternatives to Batch Testing. The obtained results were
