Intended Use
The TSX Implants are designed for use in the maxilla or mandible for immediate loading after a conventional healing period. Implants may be used to replace one or more missing teeth. Immediate loading is indicated when there is good primary stability and an appropriate occlusal load. Implants may be placed immediately following an extraction or loss of natural teeth provided there is sufficient volume of alveolar bone to minimally support the implant (minimum 1mm circumferential and 2mm apical) and provide good primary stability. The 3.1mmD TSX Implants should be splinted to additional implants when used in the pre-molar region and should not be used in the molar region.
Device Description
TSX Dental Implants are manufactured from biocompatible titanium alloy. TSX Dental Implants surface consists of a Contemporary Hybrid Surface Treatment (Dual Acid Etch + MTX™ Textured Surface). The implants are available in different platform diameters and feature an internal hex connection for mating with associated Zimmer Dental and Biomet 3i internal connection restorative components. For specific product descriptions, please refer to individual product labels.
More Information

No
The summary describes a dental implant and its mechanical, sterilization, pyrogenicity, and biocompatibility testing. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data analysis that would suggest the use of such technologies.

Yes.
The device, TSX Implants, is designed for use in the maxilla or mandible to replace missing teeth, which addresses a pathological condition and restores function, fitting the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as a dental implant designed for replacing missing teeth, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states the device is a physical dental implant made from titanium alloy, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as a dental implant designed for surgical placement in the maxilla or mandible to replace missing teeth. This is a surgical/implantable device, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description details the material (titanium alloy), surface treatment, and connection type of a physical implant.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any processes typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on mechanical properties (fatigue endurance), sterilization, pyrogenicity, surface analysis, and biocompatibility – all relevant to an implantable medical device, not an IVD.

Therefore, the TSX Implants are a medical device, specifically a dental implant, and do not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

A full ISO-Curve testing has been conducted to substantiate sufficient fatigue endurance limits for the TSX Implants for placement in the anterior and posterior regions of the mouth with compatible abutments. Testing has been performed in accordance with ISO 14801:2016 and FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants. The worst-case comparison for the subject devices have demonstrated substantially equivalent to K122300 with regard to mechanical performance.

MR compatibility testing to support the MR conditional labeling is leveraged from K150571, where testing was conducted on the worst case cleared Biomet 31 device constructs. Hence the subject devices are labeled as MR conditional as the review of the testing is leveraged from K150571. The subject devices do not introduce a new worst-case.

Radiation sterilization validation according to ISO 11137-1 and 11137-2 was provided, demonstrating a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 106 and accelerated aging study demonstrating a shelf life of one (1) year.

Pyrogenicity information provided is based on FDA Guidance on "Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submission for Devices Labeled as Sterile, issued on 21 January 2016." The method used to determine the device meets pyrogen limit specifications is LAL Endotoxin Analysis with testing limit of 20 EU/device, based on a blood contacting and implanted device. Testing was leveraged from the reference devices in K142082 as the subject devices do not introduce a new worst-case.

SEM and Energy Dispersive x-ray Spectroscopy imaging was conducted on the subject and predicate finished devices to assess the presence of residual blast media particles on the device due to the modification of the surface treatment in the subject device. The assessment conducted that the subject TSX devices presented no statistical difference compared to the predicate TSV devices and therefore are considered substantially equivalent.

Biocompatibility assessment of the final finished device per recommendations of current FDA guidance (issued on September 4, 2020) in accordance to "ISO 10993-1, Biological evaluation of medical device - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" has been conducted including chemical characterization, cytotoxicity and toxicological risk assessment. It is concluded that the TSX Implants are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of biocompatibility inclusive of base materials, manufacturing processes inclusive of surface treatments.

No clinical data were included in this submission.

NOTE: The Zimmer Dental and Biomet 3i Zirconia-based abutments have not been tested for compatibility with the TSX Implant and therefore should not be used.

IX. Indications for Use:

The TSX Implants are designed for use in the maxilla or mandible for immediate loading or for loading after a conventional healing period. Implants may be used to replace one or more missing teeth. Immediate loading is indicated when there is good primary stability and an appropriate occlusal load. Implants may be placed immediately following an extraction or loss of natural teeth provided there is sufficient volume of alveolar bone to minimally support the implant (minimum 1mm circumferential and 2mm apical) and provide good primary stability.

The 3.1mmD TSX Implants should be splinted to additional implants when used in the premolar region and should not be used in the molar region.

X. Summary of the Technological Characteristics:

The TSX Implants are similar to that of the predicate devices and reference devices listed below in terms of intended use, indications for use, operating principle, fundamental scientific technology, implant connection, and material. The technological characteristics such as implant diameters, length, connection and platform geometry, as well as mating abutments are similar to that of the predicate devices and reference devices, except for Zimmer Dental Zirconia-based abutments which have not been tested for compatibility with the subject devices and therefore should not be used. The subject device features a tapered design with a similar screw-type design as the predicate and reference devices. Like the Predicate Device (K072589) and Reference Devices (K013227, K142082), TSX Implants are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti 6Al-4V ELI) per ASTM F136. The primary change from the predicate devices is the external tapered thread geometry, the hybrid surface (Dual acid-etched + MTX Surface), the new 5.4mm(D) size in 8.0, 10.0, 11.5. 13.0. and 16.0mm lengths, and the one style packaging Inner Vial for all diameters and lengths, with a Titanium sleeve based on implant size, as well as an anodized alignment pin.

The subject devices have indications for use that are similar to the predicate devices. The differences include additional information around immediate placement in extractions and natural loss of teeth. This additional language is in the indications for use for the reference devices in K142082. The intended use of the subject devices is not changed by the addition of this additional language.

A substantial equivalence comparison between the Subject Device and the Predicate and Reference Devices is provided in Table 5a below.

XI. Non-Clinical Testing

A full ISO-Curve testing has been conducted to substantiate sufficient fatigue endurance limits for the TSX Implants for placement in the anterior and posterior regions of the mouth with compatible abutments. Testing has been performed in accordance with ISO 14801:2016 and FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants. The worst-case comparison for the subject devices have demonstrated substantially equivalent to K122300 with regard to mechanical performance. MR compatibility testing to support the MR conditional labeling is leveraged from K150571, where testing was conducted on the worst case cleared Biomet 31 device constructs. Hence the subject devices are labeled as MR conditional as the review of the testing is leveraged from K150571. The subject devices do not introduce a new worst-case.

Radiation sterilization validation according to ISO 11137-1 and 11137-2 was provided, demonstrating a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 106 and accelerated aging study demonstrating a shelf life of one (1) year.

Pyrogenicity information provided is based on FDA Guidance on "Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submission for Devices Labeled as Sterile, issued on 21 January 2016." The method used to determine the device meets pyrogen limit specifications is LAL Endotoxin Analysis with testing limit of 20 EU/device, based on a blood contacting and implanted device. Testing was leveraged from the reference devices in K142082 as the subject devices do not introduce a new worst-case.

Though, the LAL Bacterial Endotoxin testing determined the device meets pyrogen limit specifications, it will not be sufficient alone to demonstrate "non-pyrogenic", therefore, the subject devices will not be labeled as non-pyrogen-free, nor will any claims be made in regards to non-pyrogenicity.

SEM and Energy Dispersive x-ray Spectroscopy imaging was conducted on the subject and predicate finished devices to assess the presence of residual blast media particles on the device due to the modification of the surface treatment in the subject device. The assessment conducted that the subject TSX devices presented no statistical difference compared to the predicate TSV devices and therefore are considered substantially equivalent.

Biocompatibility assessment of the final finished device per recommendations of current FDA guidance (issued on September 4, 2020) in accordance to "ISO 10993-1, Biological evaluation of medical device - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" has been conducted including chemical characterization, cytotoxicity and toxicological risk assessment. It is concluded that the TSX Implants are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of biocompatibility inclusive of base materials, manufacturing processes inclusive of surface treatments.

No clinical data were included in this submission.

ХІІ. Conclusion:

The subject device has demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicate devices in that it has the same intended use, the same operating principle, identical materials and similar fundamental design.
