Intended Use

It is indicated for localized gingival augmentation to increase keratinized tissue (KT) around teeth.

Device Description

AGM is a three-layer, symmetrical composite matrix intended for oral tissue regeneration. The top and bottom of the product are gelatin layers, which are made of gelatin derived from bovine bone. The gelatin layers are structured as random fiber stacking by in situ cross-linked electrospinning technology and its average diameter is 100 - 900 nm. Users do not need to distinguish between the top and bottom of the product. The middle of the product is polycaprolactone layer (Abbreviated as "PCL layer"), which is thin polycaprolactone film with porous structure.

When adhering to the wound surface, the "inner" gelatin layer, the one facing the wound can increase keratinized tissue (KT) around teeth. The middle of PCL layer promotes the spreading of matrix on wound surface. Along with the "outer" gelatin layer, the PCL layer also acts as physical barrier to prevent foreign objects' invasion.

Efficacy evaluation endpoints:

  • Keratinized gingiva width augmentation measured by periodontal probe
  • Epithelial migration distance by quantitative analysis of HE staining
  • Newly formed collagen arrangement by qualitative analysis of Masson staining

Safety evaluation endpoints:

  • Local effects after implantation according to ISO 10993-6

7.4 Clinical Testing

Prospective, multi-center, open, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority clinical study design of the subject device, AGM, was conducted for comparison with control group of Autologous Free Gingiva, including a total of 5 centers in this trial, and 148 subjects enrolled (74 subjects in the test group and 74 subjects in the control group).

Page 10

The main efficacy indicator is Augmentation of keratinized gingival width 6 months postoperatively.

Based on the clinical performance as documented in the clinical study, the subject device was found to have a safety and effectiveness profile.

The main efficacy indicator between the two groups has no statistically significant difference (P=0.951), and it can be concluded that the augmentation of keratinized gingival width 6 months postoperatively for the devices in the subject device was noninferior to that of the Autologous Free Gingiva which provides support for the safety and effectiveness of its clinical application.

8. CONCLUSIONS

The non-clinical data support the safety of the device and the verification and validation demonstrate that the AGM device perform as intended. The clinical data demonstrate that the AGM device performs comparably to the predicate device that is currently marketed for the same intended use.
