No
The summary describes a physical implantable barrier material and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is described as a "temporarily implantable material" intended for use in the oral cavity for "space maintaining barrier over bone" and for "augmentation" around implants. These uses indicate that it is intended to affect the structure or function of the body, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "temporarily implantable material intended to be used as a space maintaining barrier over bone" and for "augmentation," indicating it is a therapeutic or reconstructive device, not one used for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "temporarily implantable material" composed of Polytetrafluoroethylene, indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "temporarily implantable material intended to be used as a space maintaining barrier over bone" in the oral cavity. This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for a structural or barrier function.
  • Device Description: The description details the material composition (PTFE) and physical characteristics (membrane, dimensions, sterile). This aligns with a medical device used for implantation.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo as an implantable barrier.

§ 872.3930 Bone grafting material.

(a)
Identification. Bone grafting material is a material such as hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, polylactic and polyglycolic acids, or collagen, that is intended to fill, augment, or reconstruct periodontal or bony defects of the oral and maxillofacial region.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for bone grafting materials that do not contain a drug that is a therapeutic biologic. The special control is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Dental Bone Grafting Material Devices.” (See § 872.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.)(2) Class III (premarket approval) for bone grafting materials that contain a drug that is a therapeutic biologic. Bone grafting materials that contain a drug that is a therapeutic biologic, such as biological response modifiers, require premarket approval.
(c)
Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required. Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

IMTEC BioBarrier is a temporarily implantable material intended to be used as a space maintaining barrier over bone. It is intended for use in the oral cavity. The material is conformable to a variety of shapes as required for specific anatomical limitations.

The IMTEC BioBarrier is additionally indicated for:

  • simultaneous use of GBR-membrane (BioBarrier) and implants: -
  • augmentation around implants placed in immediate extraction sockets; -
  • augmentation around implants placed in delayed extraction sockets; -
  • localized ridge augmentation for later implantation. 1

Because of its elasticity, the IMTEC BioBarrier should be used in combination with space-making bone graft materials, e.g., autogenous bone or bone substitutes.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION:

IMTEC/ BIOBARRIER is manufactured from biocompatable,100% PTFE. It has been demonstrated to serve as a temporary mechanical barrier to undesirable tissue growth into an osseous cavity. It is designed to be a passive barrier which reduces the migration of epithelial and gingival connective tissue into a bony repair site. The material is firm enough to provide sufficient mechanical support over a site while maintaining adequately supple characteristics during placement such that tissue compliance related problems are reduced.

CONTRAINDICATIONS:

It is critical that when used in dental implant repair applications that the implant is stable. It may NOT be used to stabilize a failed implant. Contraindications customary to the use of bone grafts and membrane techniques should be observed. These include, but are not limited to, current local infection, vascular impairment, uncontrolled diabetes, chronic high dose of steroids, clotting disorders, current anticoagulant therapy, etabolic bone disease, and other metabolic or systemic disorders which will affect bone or wound healing.

2

COMPLICATIONS:

Possible complications with any oral reconstructive surgery include infection, closure perforation, abcess formation, bone loss, pain, soft tissue irregularities, and additional complications associated with anesthesia and dental surgery. Specific to this surgery is augmentation material perforation or exfoliation. Depending on the type and severity of the complications the removal of the membrane may be indicated.

MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION:

IMTEC/ BIOBARRIER is constructed of 100% polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS:

The uses of IMTEC/BIOBARRIER are similar to the currently marketed predicate devices which are used for Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) in conjunction with endosseous dental implant placement and repair.

Dear Dr. Patterson:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of March 3, 1998.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting (1111), is may be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
