No
The device description clearly describes a physical, self-tapping titanium implant (a screw) intended for surgical placement. The performance studies also focus on the mechanical properties and biological integration of this physical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for surgical placement in the mouth to support dental prosthetics. This is a surgical device used in vivo (within the body).
- Device Description: The description details a titanium implant designed for surgical insertion into bone.
- 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, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is clearly a surgical implant used in vivo.

Device Description
The Bicortical Screw is a self-tapping, single-stage titanium implant that enjoys maximum primary support in the bone, i.e., bicortical support. The high degree of initial stabilization on insertion ensures undisturbed healing for this free-standing implant site is prepared with a small diameter pilot bur and the screw implant cuts its own thread configuration, leaving only a very small wound. The implant is intended for sale in the United States with a square head and round head in two thread diameters each (3.5 mm and 4.5 mm major diameter). The square head version is bendable at the head whereas the round head version is not bendable.
The complete set of surgical instrumentation was purposely kept small for easy handling. It consists of a special bur for preparing the alveolar ridge, two burs for preparing the bone for implant insertion, a curette and a series of elevators:
The Crestotom® is used when necessary to prepare the alveolar ridge for implantation. It is a side milling bur with a shape that offers simplicity and stability during osteoplasty.
The pilot bur of 1.2 mm diameter is usually sufficient for insertion of the Bicortical Screws of 3.5 mm diameter in D-3 and D-4 bone quality.
The twist drill, graduated, 2.0 mm diameter, is used for D-1 and D-2 bone quality and is sufficient to prepare the complete shaft diameter of the Bicortical Screw.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Animal Testing: A 31 month primate study by Sarnachiaro, et. al., showed that the interface between bone and the Bicortical Screw is fully osseointegrated, with no evidence of a fibrous tissue layer around the implants.
Clinical Studies: Results of retrospective analysis of consecutive patients from two centers treated between 1984 and 1997.
Total Patients: 276
Total Implants: 559
Criteria for success: Lack of mobility of free-standing implants (for single-tooth restorations and initial integration), freedom from pain, generalized radiolucency, or uncontrolled bone loss.
Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that cumulative survival of Bicortical Screws after five years is 93.9 percent in one center and 97.9 percent in the other.
Histopathological studies of implants removed due to trauma or death showed histological evidence of osseointegration, compact bone around the screw with no evidence of connective tissue, and good bone contact. This included observations of bone remodeling in cortical bone and evidence of microfracture and repair in cancellous bone.
Mechanical Testing of Bicortical Screw: Static compression bending tests and bending fatigue tests were conducted to compare the strength of the Bicortical Screw with the Pin Implant. Tests were done by applying a compression load 30° off the implant axis to simulate an extreme condition. Fatigue testing was done at 15 Hz in 37°C normal saline (0.9% NaCl), with runout defined as 5 million cycles.
Key results: The Bicortical Screw is nearly twice as strong in static bending compression as the Pin Implant. The 5 million cycle fatigue limit for the Bicortical Screw under these extreme conditions is more than twice that of the Pin Implant.
Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)
Cumulative survival after five years: 93.9 percent (Center A), 97.9 percent (Center B).

Material Composition
Bicortical Screw implants are made from commercially pure titanium that meets ASTM specification F67 (Standard Specification for Unalloyed Titanium for Surgical Implant Applications). Grade 2. The use of titanium is widespread in commercially distributed, permanently implanted medical devices and the materials are widely considered to be biocompatible. Titanium is often used as a negative control in biocompatibility testing.
Animal Testing
A 31 month primate study by Sarnachiaro, et. al., showed that the interface between bone and the Bicortical Screw is fully osseointegrated, with no evidence of a fibrous tissue layer around the implants.
Clinical Studies
Results of retrospective analysis of consecutive patients from two centers treated between 1984 and 1997 are summarized below. Consecutive patients treated with 3.5 mm or 4.5 mm Bicortical Screws in the anterior were included in the analysis. Total numbers of patients, by gender, and total implants are shown for each center in Table I.
| Center | Total | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| A | B | ||
| Male | 64 | 61 | 125 |
| Female | 84 | 67 | 151 |
| Total Patients | 148 | 128 | 276 |
| Implants | 247 | 312 | 559 |
Table I Demographic Information
Criteria for success: Lack of mobility of free-standing implants was included as a criterion for single-tooth restorations and for initial integration, but was not used for implants in multi-unit prostheses after restoration. Patient care precluded removal of restorations to examine mobility. However, the usual criteria of freedom from pain, generalized radiolucency or uncontrolled bone loss were used.
Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that cumulative survival of Bicortical Screws after five years is 93.9 percent in one center and 97.9 percent in the other.
Literature on histopathology of implants removed from two patients due to trauma (one implant) and death (six implants) shows that histological evidence of osseointegration is present. Compact bone was observed around the screw with no evidence of connective tissue. Good bone contact, with no connective tissue, was observed in the margin and basal cortical bone of implants that had been in place for nearly ten years, illustrating the principle of bicortical support for this implant
5
design. One implant of the six lacked marginal bone support, but had apical apposition of bone. This examination included the observation of bone remodeling in cortical bone and evidence of microfracture and repair in cancellous bone.
EQUIVALENCE TO MARKETED PRODUCT
Oraltronics submits the following information to demonstrate that the Bicortical Screw Implant System is substantially equivalent in indications and design principles to the following predicate devices: Park Dental Research Corp. Pin Implant, a preamendments device that is marketed in the United States, and the Sendax MDI™ (K972351) and the Brånemark Fixture (K820013, K841551, K925764, K925765, K934825), implant systems that have been cleared for marketing in the United States.
Intended Uses
The indications for use for the Bicortical Screw and the predicate devices are substantially the same. All are intended for surgical placement in the maxillary and/or mandibular arch to support crowns, bridges, or overdentures in edentulous or partially edentulous patients. The major indications for the Bicortical Screw are in the anterior and presinus region of the upper jaw and in the interforaminal region of the lower jaw.
Design and Materials
The design and functional characteristics of the Bicortical Screw, the Pin Implant and the Sendax MDI are the same. They are narrow root-form, screw-type, titanium implants intended for support of prosthetic tooth restorations. The Brånemark Fixture has a slightly wider minor diameter (3.0 mm vs 2.25 mm), but is made from a weaker material. The Bicortical Screw is made from CP titanium, Grade 2, while the Brånemark Fixture is made from CP titanium. Grade 1. The Pin Implant is made from CP titanium (grade not known) and the Sendax MDI is made from Ti-6Al-4V alloy.
Mechanical Testing of Bicortical Screw
In order to compare the strength of the Bicortical Screw with that of the Pin Implant, static compression bending tests and bending fatigue tests were conducted. Bicortical Screws and Pin Implants were bent 15° to simulate the maximum correction that would be used with the square head Bicortical Screw during clinical use. Tests were done by applying a compression load 30° off the implant axis in order to simulate an extreme condition, more severe than would be expected clinically. Static tests were done to simulate a single extreme overload condition and dynamic tests were conducted to provide fatigue curves. Fatigue testing was done at 15 Hz in 37°C normal saline (0.9% NaCl), with runout defined as 5 million cycles. In the case of the Pin Implant, fatigue lives were so short at loads well below the fatigue limit of the Bicortical Screw that no attempt was made to reduce loads to the levels that might have resulted in runout.
6
The results of testing showed that the Bicortical Screw is nearly twice as strong in static bending compression as the Pin Implant. The 5 million cycle fatigue limit for the Bicortical Screw under these extreme conditions is more than twice that of the Pin Implant.
