Intended Use

The T3 Pro Implants are intended for surgical placement in the upper or lower jaw to provide a means for prosthetic attachment in single tooth restorations and in partially or fully edentulous spans with multiple single teeth utilizing delayed loading, or with a terminal or intermediary abutment for fixed or removable bridgework, and to retain overdentures.

The T3 Pro Implants may also utilize immediate loading for these indications. The T3 Pro Implants are intended for immediate function on single tooth and/or multiple tooth applications when good primary stability is achieved, with appropriate occlusal loading, in order to restore chewing function.

Device Description

The T3 Pro Implants are basic screw-type designs available in tapered body geometry. The devices are manufactured from Commercially Pure Titanium (ASTM F67) and feature a roughened apex and traditional OSSEOTITE® coronal surface. The device is packaged in a Titanium sleeve that is inserted into a polypropylene inner tray, covered with a Tyvek lid and heat-sealed. This assembly is then placed inside a larger polyethylene thermoformed outer tray, covered with a Tyvek lid and heat-sealed. The outer tray is packaged inside a box. The device is sold sterile. The shelf life of the T3 Pro Implants is 5 years and they are intended for single use only. The device is sterilized using gamma irradiation method. The implants are available in various platform options and feature an internal hex connection for mating with associated Biomet 3i internal connection restorative components. The implants are offered in a variety of diameters and lengths to accommodate varying patient anatomy.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (T3 Pro Implants) and does not contain information regarding software or AI performance.

Therefore, I cannot provide an answer addressing the acceptance criteria and study proving device performance for AI/software, as the document does not pertain to such a device.

The document discusses the substantial equivalence of the T3 Pro Implants to predicate devices based on non-clinical testing rather than AI/software performance evaluations.

§ 872.3640 Endosseous dental implant.

(a)
Identification. An endosseous dental implant is a prescription device made of a material such as titanium or titanium alloy that is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore a patient's chewing function.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a root-form endosseous dental implant. The root-form endosseous dental implant is characterized by four geometrically distinct types: Basket, screw, solid cylinder, and hollow cylinder. 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.)(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a blade-form endosseous dental implant. The special controls for this device are:(i) The design characteristics of the device must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use;
(ii) Mechanical performance (fatigue) testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate maximum load (endurance limit) when the device is subjected to compressive and shear loads;
(iii) Corrosion testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate corrosion potential of each metal or alloy, couple potential for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system, and corrosion rate for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system;
(iv) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible;
(v) Sterility testing must demonstrate the sterility of the device;
(vi) Performance testing to evaluate the compatibility of the device in a magnetic resonance (MR) environment;
(vii) Labeling must include a clear description of the technological features, how the device should be used in patients, detailed surgical protocol and restoration procedures, relevant precautions and warnings based on the clinical use of the device, and qualifications and training requirements for device users including technicians and clinicians;
(viii) Patient labeling must contain a description of how the device works, how the device is placed, how the patient needs to care for the implant, possible adverse events and how to report any complications; and
(ix) Documented clinical experience must demonstrate safe and effective use and capture any adverse events observed during clinical use.
