Intended Use

The Paltop Narrow Implant is indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement in the mandibular central, lateral incisor and maxillary lateral incisor regions of partially edentulous jaws where the horizontal space is limited by the adjacent teeth and roots, to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore the patient's chewing function. The Paltop Narrow Implant is indicated also for immediate loading when good primary stability is achieved and with appropriate occlusal loading.

Device Description

This submission expands the Predicate Narrow Implant device to include 3.0 mm diameter implants, additional implant thread configurations and additional prosthetic components to the previously cleared Paltop Narrow Implant (K130462).

Endosseous dental implants are surgically implanted into a patient's mouth to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore the patient's chewing function. Endosseous dental implant abutments are secured to dental implants with a retaining screw to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore the patient's chewing function.

Paltop Narrow Implant are one- and two-stage endosseous screw type dental implants with associated abutments. The implants, titanium abutment screws are fabricated from a Titanium-6 Aluminum 4 Vanadium ELI titanium alloy which conforms to ASTM F136. The Paltop Narrow Implants are surface treated with SLA (Sand-blasted, Large Grit, Acid Etched).

The implants are available in three thread/body configurations: Advanced, Advanced+, and Dynamic. The Advanced, Advanced+ and Dynamic implants have micro threads at the neck. All implants have a parallel coronal and mid-section area with an apical taper. The families have slight differences in thread profile and either a passive or active apex. The 3.0 mm diameter implants are prosthetically compatible with the previously cleared Paltop Narrow Implant (K130462) prosthetic devices.

This submission introduces Single-Unit Abutments for the Paltop Narrow Implant device. The submission replaces the original straight Multi-Unit Abutments from the K130462 submission and includes additional gingival heights. The submission also introduces an angulated Multi-Unit titanium abutment, all compatible with the Paltop Narrow Implant device. The submission expands the compatible prosthetic components to include new temporary titanium abutments and healing caps compatible with Single-Unit and Multi-Unit titanium implant abutments.

The Subject device implants may be used with the Predicate device abutments previously cleared under K130462, based on non-clinical performance bench testing provided in this submission.

The Subject device abutments may be used with the Predicate device implants previously cleared under K130462, based on non-clinical performance bench testing provided in this submission. The only exception is the implant cover screw (P/N 80-70100) which is specific to the 3.0 mm diameter implants in this submission.

The Subject device Multi-Unit Abutment components such as copings/interfaces, temporary abutments, cylinders, and screws may be used with the Predicate device Multi-Unit Abutments previously cleared under K130462 based on non-clinical performance bench testing provided in this submission.

All Subject devices in this submission are provided sterile and sterilized by gamma irradiation except for Single-Unit and Multi-Unit copings and all replacement screws which are provided non-sterile. Devices provided as non-sterilized by steam.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study information for the Paltop Narrow Implant, based on the provided document.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly state numerical acceptance criteria in a table format for specific performance metrics like fatigue life or bone-to-implant contact percentages. Instead, it refers to industry standards and general outcomes. The reported device performance is presented narratively.

Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (implied/standards referenced)Reported Device Performance
Fatigue StrengthConformance to ISO 14801:2016 for dynamic loadingSuccessfully tested to ISO 14801:2016. Worst-case scenario chosen.
BiocompatibilitySuitable biocompatibilityDemonstrated suitable biocompatibility based on review of published literature, internal routine monitoring data, and post-market surveillance data.
OsseointegrationSuccessful osseointegration, industry-accepted bone level changes92% of implants showed bone level improvement or maintenance; bone level decreases less than 1mm; 100% met criteria for successful osseointegration.
Implant Survival RateFailure rates below industry levelsPost-market surveillance indicated failure rates below industry levels.
Residual Aluminum ParticlesNo negative impact on osseointegration and implant survivalEvaluation supported previous findings that residual aluminum particles (if present) from specific surface treatment do not negatively impact osseointegration and implant survival.
Endotoxin LevelsConformance to USP <161>Confirmatory endotoxin testing performed according to USP <161> acceptance criteria.
Sterilization (Sterile Components)Suitable sterilizationDemonstrated suitable sterilization based on predicate/reference device validations.
Sterilization (Non-Sterile Components)Suitable sterilization (cleaning validation, ISO 17665-1)Cleaning validation and sterilization per ISO 17665-1 performed for non-sterile components and components requiring subsequent sterilization.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not explicitly state a test set sample size for each specific non-clinical test in terms of a number of devices. It refers to general testing.

  • For the bone changes evaluation (part of biocompatibility/osseointegration): "A total of 174 surfaces were graded (87 implants)."
  • Data provenance: The bone changes evaluation references "published literature" on patients, suggesting retrospective (or possibly prospective clinical studies mentioned in the literature). "Internal routine monitoring data" and "post-market surveillance data" are mentioned, indicating real-world data collection, likely retrospective for surveillance and ongoing for monitoring. The manufacturer is Paltop Advanced Dental Solutions, Ltd, Hashita 5, Industrial Park, Caesarea 3088900, Israel.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

The document doesn't specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish "ground truth" for the test set. For the bone level evaluation, it states "Mesial and distal surfaces were examined and graded." It is implied that these evaluations were done by qualified clinical professionals as part of the published literature or internal monitoring, but no specific details are provided.

4. Adjudication Method

No adjudication method is mentioned for any of the evaluations (e.g., bone level grading, or evaluation of non-clinical tests). The document implies acceptance based on test results meeting standards or being comparable to predicate devices.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study is mentioned. This device is an endosseous dental implant, not an AI diagnostic tool, so an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance is not applicable.

6. Standalone Performance Study

The primary studies detailed are "non-clinical bench performance testing." This refers to laboratory testing of the device itself (fatigue, pull-out, etc.) and biological evaluations based on literature review and historical data, which are "standalone" in the sense that they assess the device's physical and biological properties. There is no human element being assessed.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used several types:

  • Industry Standards: For fatigue testing (ISO 14801:2016), endotoxin testing (USP <161>), and sterilization (ISO 17665-1).
  • Clinical Outcomes Data: For osseointegration and implant survival (from published literature and post-market surveillance). This includes "bone level improvement or maintenance" and "failure rates below industry levels."
  • Analytical Data: SEM/EDS data for residual particles.
  • Comparison to Predicate/Reference Devices: Demonstrating similarity in design and performance to already cleared devices.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not mention a "training set" or "training data" in the context of an algorithm or AI. This is a medical device (dental implant) that undergoes physical and biological performance testing, not a machine learning model.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Not applicable, as there is no training set for an algorithm described in this document.

Ball Abutments, Healing Caps, Cover Screws

The Subject device Ball abutments are the K130462 Predicate device Ball abutments.

The Subject Healing Caps are highly similar to the K130462 Predicate device with highly similar gingival height dimensions. The difference in emergence profile of the healing abutments is supported by non-clinical performance testing. The higher gingival height dimensions are supported by the K102436 Reference device.

Minor differences in the implant external thread designs, dimensions, and correction angles do not affect substantial equivalence.

Differences between the Subject and Predicate device dimensions or designs are supported by Reference devices. Any differences in implant abutment designs or dimensions have been mitigated and demonstrated to be suitable for intended use through non-clinical bench performance testing.

NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE TEST DATA

Fatigue testing was performed according to the requirements of ISO 14801:2016, Dentistry – Implants – Dynamic loading test for Endosseous Dental Implants. The worst-case scenario was chosen based on the FDA Guidance, Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments.

Bone to implant contact area comparison and pull- out testing was performed to compare the Subject, Predicate and Reference devices.

{16}------------------------------------------------

The Subject devices have the identical nature of body contact duration, material formulation and sterilization methods compared to the sponsor's Predicate and Reference devices.

Test results and Biological Evaluation performed on the sponsor's Predicate and Reference devices to demonstrate suitable biocompatibility of the Subject device. The evaluation included review of published literature, internal routine monitoring data related to implant modified surface treatment and post-market surveillance data on Paltop implants subject to the same modified surface treatment and cleaning process as the Subject device.

The published literature evaluated bone changes on patients implants made from the same material and with the same surface treatment as the Subject device. Implants of varying diameters and lengths were placed in male and female adult population patients. Placement locations varied and included placement in extraction sockets, healed bone, and grafted bone locations. Bone levels were evaluated at time of abutment placement and final loading and a follow-up evaluation time from final abutment insertion which ranged from 11 months to 4 years, with an average of (2.3 years). Mesial and distal surfaces were examined and graded as bone improved, bone maintained, and bone decreased. A total of 174 surfaces were graded (87 implants). Results demonstrated bone level improvement or maintenance for 92% of the implants. Bone level decreases identified were less than 1 mm, well within accepted levels. 100% of the implants met criteria for successful implant osseointegration.

Review of historical SEM/EDS data was performed on Paltop implants made from the same material and surface treatment process, and same lot numbers as the published literature. Data included SEM images to quantify residual particles over a portion of each implant which was then extrapolated to estimate total particles over the entire length of the implant.

Review of post market surveillance data and was performed to identify any significant trends in osseointegration failures. The results indicated failure rates below industry levels.

The Biological Evaluation and review of published literature, internal in-process monitoring, and post-market surveillance data support a conclusion that residual aluminum particle levels, if present, as demonstrated from the manufacturer's specific surface treatment and included assessment, do not have negative impact on osseointegration and implant survival.

Confirmatory endotoxin testing was performed according the acceptance criteria defined in USP <161>.

Test results and sterilization validations performed for the sponsor's Predicate and Reference devices demonstrate suitable sterilization of the Subject device sterile components.

A cleaning validation, and a sterilization according to ISO 17665-1, were performed for the Subject device non-sterile components and sterile components which may be modified and require subsequent sterilization.

The results of the non-clinical testing demonstrate conformance with testing requirements and support a finding of substantial equivalence with respect to the Subject and Predicate device.

CONCLUSION

Overall, the Indications for Use statements for the Subject and Predicate devices are substantially equivalent.

Overall, the same or highly similar Technological Characteristics of the Subject device support a finding of substantial equivalence. Any differences between the Subject and Predicate dimensions or designs are supported by Reference devices. Any differences in implant abutment designs or

dimensions have been mitigated and demonstrated to be suitable for intended use through non-clinical bench performance testing.

Overall, the Subject device and Predicate devices have been demonstrated to be Substantially Equivalent.
