The summary describes a physical modification (TiN coating) to existing dental implants and abutments. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No.
The device is described as an endosseous implant and abutment system designed for permanent support of prosthetic appliances to restore masticatory function, which is a restorative rather than a therapeutic function.
No
The device description indicates it is an endosseous implant and abutment with a TiN coating, used as permanent support for prosthetic appliances to restore masticatory function and improve esthetics. It is a restorative device, not one that diagnoses conditions.
No
The device description clearly indicates a physical implant and abutment with a coating, not a software-only product.
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 for surgical placement into the jaw arches to support prosthetic appliances and restore masticatory function. This is a direct surgical intervention and a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics of the implants and abutments, including a coating. This aligns with a medical device used for structural support and restoration within the body.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples from the human body (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information about a patient's health status or disease.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies described evaluate the physical properties of the coating and its interaction with prosthetic appliances, which are relevant to the device's function as a structural support, not a diagnostic tool.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not fit that description.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Endosseous implants and abutments are indicated for surgical placement into the upper and Lower jar arches as permanent support for prosthetic appliances, to restore a patient's masticatory fower jur arches as permaint oupport resally coating applied to implants/abutments improves the overall esthetics of the completed restoration.

Device Description
3i proposes to apply a TiN coating to abutment cylinder surfaces with exception of the implant mating surface interface area. On implants, the coating will be applied to coronal. transgingival collar area. Implant/abutment interface surfaces will not be coated. Current dimensional characteristics and specifications for implants and abutments to be TiN coated do not change. Cleaning, packaging and sterilization operations will be accomplished by the same means and under the same controls as non-TiN coated implants and abutments. In clinical application, implant placement, abutment selection/preparation and restorative procedures do not change. With "prep-type" abutments, much of the area containing the TiN coating may actually be removed during the preparation processes in the dental laboratory. Restorative appliances incorporating TiN coated abutment systems will continue to be, screw or cement retained with no additional or other significant revisions in abutment preparation processes. The only visible outcome difference will be the appearance of the gold TiN color, where previously the non-coated titanium showed. Current sterilization means and processes do not change by addition of the TiN coating.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The proposed TiN coating has been physically evaluated to determine adhesion to the titanium substrate and performance with cement retained restorative appliances.
Scratch adhesion (TiN to CP titanium): 2.5 - 2.75kg.
Adhesion of cement retained prosthetic to TiN: Visual observation of TiN abutments after removal of cemented copings revealed no de-lamination or loss of coating. Removal of cemented copings from TiN coated abutments was equal to or greater than copings from non-coated abutments with a significantly smaller standard deviation. TiN coating was not removed from substrate, when scraped with a steel dental curette.

PRE-MARKET NOTIFICATION: TiN Coating - Implants/Abutments
CLASSIFICATION NAME: 21 CFR Part 872.3640, Endosseous Dental Implant* 01
- 02 COMMON/USUAL NAMES: Dental implants and fixtures; abutments; transmucosal abutments/elements; restorative/ prosthetic devices/components; abutment posts, cylinders, devices, fixtures, screws, etc.
- 03 PROPRIETARY NAME: No specific marketing name is established.
- CLASSIFICATION: Class III 04
- 05 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS: Unknown
- 0€ BACKGROUND:
The company has distributed a wide variety of commercially pure titanium and titanium alloy implants and abutment systems. Recently, there has been increased discussion concerning aesthetic improvements to implant supported restorations. It is reported, titanium implants and abutments under thin mucosal tissue can exhibit an unnatural grayish appearance, considered by some patients to be noticeable and therefore objectionable. Several competitor companies have incorporated TiN coatings to "harden" abutment component surfaces and in so doing, have enhanced esthetics.
1
Titanium Nitride ("TiN") coatings are widely used in orthopedic, dental, surgical and other medical device applications. It is a proven biocompatible, "ultra-hard" material that can greatly reduce wear of a variety of metal devices, including devices constructed of titanium. A search of medical/surgical related literature published on use of TiN coatings and tissue compatibility provides information to support a well established understanding that TiN is biocompatible when used in applications in the oral cavity.
FORM and CONSTRUCTION: 07
3i proposes to apply a TiN coating to abutment cylinder surfaces with exception of the implant mating surface interface area. On implants, the coating will be applied to coronal. transgingival collar area. Implant/abutment interface surfaces will not be coated. Current dimensional characteristics and specifications for implants and abutments to be TiN coated do not change. Cleaning, packaging and sterilization operations will be accomplished by the same means and under the same controls as non-TiN coated implants and abutments.
In clinical application, implant placement, abutment selection/preparation and restorative procedures do not change. With "prep-type" abutments, much of the area containing the TiN coating may actually be removed during the preparation processes in the dental laboratory. Restorative appliances incorporating TiN coated abutment systems will continue to be, screw or cement retained with no additional or other significant revisions in abutment preparation processes. The only visible outcome difference will be the appearance of the gold TiN color, where previously the non-coated titanium showed. Current sterilization means and processes do not change by addition of the TiN coating.
DEVICE/DESIGN PERFORMANCE EVALUATION: 08
The proposed TiN coating has been physically evaluated to determine adhesion to the titanium substrate and performance with cement retained restorative appliances.
Scratch adhesion (TiN to CP titanium): 2.5 - 2.75kg.
Adhesion of cement retained prosthetic to TiN: Visual observation of TiN abutments after removal of cemented copings revealed no de-lamination or loss of coating. Removal of cemented copings from TiN coated abutments was equal to or greater than copings from non-coated abutments with a significantly smaller standard deviation. TiN coating was not removed from substrate, when scraped with a steel dental curette.
09 SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:
TiN-coated abutments/implants are substantially equivalent to current 3i implant/ abutments as well as competitive systems using TiN coatings. TiN-coated implants/ abutments differ from original implant/abutment systems only in use of the TiN.

10 INDICATIONS FOR USE:
Indications for use of TiN coated implants and abutments do not change from non-coated implants and abutments, indicated for surgical placement into upper/lower jaw arches as permanent support for prosthetic attachment, to restore masticatory function.
CONTRAINDICATIONS, WARNINGS, ETC: 11
Implants/abutments should not be used where remaining jawbone is too diminished to provide adequate width or height to surround the implant. Lack of osseointegration or subsequent implant failure may occur in cases where there is: Insufficient available bone or there is poor bone quality, poor oral hygiene, heavy smoking or tobacco use; Medical conditions such as blood disorders, infection(s), or vascular impairment at surgical site, uncontrolled diabetes; Heavy smoking or tobacco abuse, drug or alcohol abuse, chronic high dose steroid therapy; medical conditions such as blood clotting disorders, current or ongoing anticoagulant therapy, metabolic bone disease or other metabolic or systemic disorders may adversely affect bone or wound healing.
For safe/effective use, it is suggested specialized training be undertaken since surgical technique to place dental implants are highly specialized and complex procedures. Improper patient selection and/or surgical technique can cause implant and/or abutment failures with possible loss of supporting bone. Thorough screening of prospective implant candidates must be performed. Visual inspection as well as panoramic and periapical radiographs are essential to determine anatomical landmarks, occlusal conditions, periodontal status, and adequacy of bone. Lateral cephalometric radiographs, CT scans and tomogram may also be beneficial.
Loss of implant anchorage (failure to integrate) and loss of the prosthesis are possible occurrences after surgery. Lack of quantity or quality of remaining bone, infections, poor patient oral hygiene or cooperation, and generalized diseases (diabetes, etc.) are some potential causes for loss of anchorage. The implant procedure has risks, including localized swelling, dehiscence, tenderness of short duration, edema, hematoma, or bleeding. Numbness of the lower lip and chin region following lower jaw surgery, and of the tissue beside the nose following upper jaw surgery, is a possible side effect of the surgery. Though most probably of a temporary nature, in very rare cases, the numbness has been permanent. Gingival/mucosal (gum tissue) ulceration, tissue reaction, or infection may occur, but generally responds to local care.
LABELING:
Specific labeling is not finalized. However appropriate distinction between TiN coated and non-coated devices will be made
