Intended Use
This device is a self- tapping titanium threaded screw indicated for intra-bony and inter-radicular transitional application, to permit immediate splinting stability and ongoing fixation of new or existing crown and bridge instillations, for full or partial edentulism, an employing minimally invasive surgical intervention. Representative applications include the following: - * Temporary (transitional supports for fixed or removable implant-supported prosthesies while conventional implants are integrating. - * Stabilizing interim prostheses in graft sites and guided tissue regeneration applications to avoid iatrogenic damage to healing grafts, membranes or integrating implants. - * Introductory system for nervous or apprehensive potential patients, offering a simple methodology for testing out the actual "feel of bone anchored implants, without the major commitment to final restorations; or as an interim system for medical compromised, handicapped or terminally ill patients to enhance their comfort by maintaining a reasonable level of speech, mastication and general well-being, at modest cost levels.

No
The device description and intended use are purely mechanical, describing a titanium screw for dental applications. There is no mention of software, data processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device is described as permitting "immediate splinting stability and ongoing fixation of new or existing crown and bridge instillations," and is used for "stabilizing interim prostheses" and "maintaining a reasonable level of speech, mastication and general well-being," which are all therapeutic functions.

No

The device description indicates it is a self-tapping titanium threaded screw used for fixation and stabilization of prostheses, not for diagnosing a condition or disease. Its function is to provide physical support.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "self-tapping titanium threaded screw," which is a physical hardware component, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states the device is a "self-tapping titanium threaded screw" intended for "intra-bony and inter-radicular transitional application" to provide "splinting stability and ongoing fixation of new or existing crown and bridge instillations." This describes a surgical implant used directly within the body for structural support.
  • Lack of Mention of Samples or Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples from the body or to perform any kind of diagnostic test.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used for surgical and structural purposes, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 872.3640 Endosseous dental implant.

(a)
Identification. An endosseous dental implant is a prescription device made of a material such as titanium or titanium alloy that is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore a patient's chewing function.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a root-form endosseous dental implant. The root-form endosseous dental implant is characterized by four geometrically distinct types: Basket, screw, solid cylinder, and hollow cylinder. The guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-Form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments” will serve as the special control. (See § 872.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.)(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a blade-form endosseous dental implant. The special controls for this device are:(i) The design characteristics of the device must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use;
(ii) Mechanical performance (fatigue) testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate maximum load (endurance limit) when the device is subjected to compressive and shear loads;
(iii) Corrosion testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate corrosion potential of each metal or alloy, couple potential for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system, and corrosion rate for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system;
(iv) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible;
(v) Sterility testing must demonstrate the sterility of the device;
(vi) Performance testing to evaluate the compatibility of the device in a magnetic resonance (MR) environment;
(vii) Labeling must include a clear description of the technological features, how the device should be used in patients, detailed surgical protocol and restoration procedures, relevant precautions and warnings based on the clinical use of the device, and qualifications and training requirements for device users including technicians and clinicians;
(viii) Patient labeling must contain a description of how the device works, how the device is placed, how the patient needs to care for the implant, possible adverse events and how to report any complications; and
(ix) Documented clinical experience must demonstrate safe and effective use and capture any adverse events observed during clinical use.
