The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and describes a standard CAD/CAM workflow for fabricating dental prosthetics.
No.
The document states that the device is a "premanufactured prosthetic component" and "an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation" for dental implants, indicating it is a prosthetic device, not a therapeutic one involved in treating a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a prosthetic component (dental abutment) used for prosthetic rehabilitation to restore chewing function, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states the device consists of physical components: a titanium base and mesostructure components, which are premanufactured prosthetic components. While it integrates with a digital workflow including software, the device itself is hardware.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "prosthetic rehabilitation" by connecting to dental implants to support a dental restoration and restore chewing function. This is a mechanical and structural function within the body.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components (titanium base, mesostructure), the materials used, and the manufacturing process (CAD/CAM milling). It focuses on the device's role in supporting a dental prosthesis.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples like blood, urine, or tissue to diagnose or monitor medical conditions. This device is a prosthetic component used for dental restoration.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The TIB Abutments are premanufactured prosthetic components directly connected to endosseous dental implants and are intended for use as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation. The TIB abutments consist of two major parts. Specifically, the titanium base and mesostructure components make up a two-piece abutment. The system integrates multiple components of the digital dentistry workflow: Scan files from desktop scanners, CAM software, ceramic material, milling machine and associated tooling and accessories.
The intended use for the TiB narrow abutments used with the Ø3.0 mm External hex and Ø3.0 mm Deep Conical implants is limited to replacement of maxillary lateral incisors and mandibular lateral and central incisors.

Device Description
The Narrow TIB Abutment bases are standard premanufactured titanium allov abutments for supporting a dental restoration and mesostructure. The dental laboratory is to fabricate the mesostructure restoration by CAD/CAM technique out of zirconia. The TIB abutment base then serves as the interface between the endosseous implant and the Zirconia restoration. The TIB Abutment Base is designed to support the restoration on an endosseous implant in order to restore chewing function for the patient.
The DC Ø3.0mm Narrow TiB abutments are only to be placed straight in the patient. Occlusal loading forces are only to be applied through the central longitudinal axis of the implant body.
The mesostructured restoration is a CAD/CAM designed prosthesis milled out of Zirconia, which is designed to fit the abutment base in order to restore chewing for the patient. Each restoration is custom designed using 3Shape Abutment Designer Software in order to meet the requirements of each patient on a case-by-case basis. Limitations have been put in place in 3Shape Abutment Designer in order to prevent malfunctioning of the restoration.
The subject Narrow TIB Abutments are compatible with the Southern Implants' Deep Conical and External Hex implants and screws. The subject TIB abutment bases are manufactured from Titanium alloy conforming to ASTM F136 and are color coded by gold anodizing. The anodization process is the same as used for previously cleared anodized titanium alloy devices in K193084. The mesostructured restoration is to be manufactured from Zirconia - Sage Max NexxZr which has been previously cleared for use in K130991.
The digital workflow includes the following products (not subject devices to this submission):

Table of Substantial Equivalence – Deep Conical Narrow TIB Abutments

Subject device Narrow TIB Abutments
The primary predicate device K193084 is for substantial equivalence of the subject device Narrow TIB abutment designs. The subject device abutments have similar indication for use, equivalent design, are both two-piece abutments with a premanufactured titanium base making up the first piece, and a ceramic composite intended to be bonded to the titanium base making up the second piece of the abutment. The primary predicate and subject device have comparable designs differing only in dimension. All the predicate device design features for example restorative platform, anodizing, post and grooves are present. The Indications for Use Statement for the subject device is similar to the reference device K193084 only with restrictions imposed on the Ø3.0 Deep Conical and Ø3.0 External Hex abutments. The abutment design and indications for use are thus substantially equivalent to that of the primary predicate.
The primary predicate and the subject device have the identical maximum angulation for the ceramic restoration and follow an equivalent design workflow. With the only exception being the Ø3.0 Deep Conical Narrow TiB abutments which are not intended for angled placement. The DC Ø3.0mm Narrow TiB abutments are only to be placed straight in the patient. Occlusal loading forces are only to be applied through the central longitudinal axis of the implant body. In the design workflow the primary predicate and subject devices use the same scanners and software to design the restoration.
The subject device is also substantially equivalent to the primary predicate with reference to the abutments restoration material with the subject and the primary predicate both making use of a ceramic composite material (K130991). The titanium abutment material for both the subject device and primary predicate is a Titanium Alloy (ASTM F136), the screw material is Titanium for both the subject and primary predicate. Both the subject and the primary predicate devices are provided non-sterile. Thus, the abutment materials and method provided of the subject device are substantially equivalent to that of the primary predicate.
Substantial equivalence of the subject device and primary predicate components in terms of biocompatibility is supported by the fact that materials are identical in formulation, processing, component interactions, and storage conditions to the predicate device in K193084.
The reference devices K173706 and K163060 are for substantial equivalence of the abutment connection types namely External Hex and Deep Conical. The reference devices contain the identical connection types and sizes to those of the subject devices.
In support of substantial equivalence in terms of mechanical performance, dynamic compression-bending testing according to ISO 14801 Dentistry – Implants – Dynamic fatigue test for endosseous dental implants was performed. Dynamic testing was performed on worst-case subject device constructs.
The reference devices K193084 and K220841 are included as reference devices for substantial equivalence in terms of fatigue strength of the worst-case combinations.
CONCLUSION
The subject devices and the primary predicates have similar indications for use, operating principles, have similar technological characteristics and are materials. The subject devices and the predicate devices encompass similar physical designs. The subject devices and the primary predicate devices are packaged identically and are all provided non-sterile. The subject device and the primary predicate follow the same design and manufacturing CAD/CAM workflows.
