Intended Use
For the repair of periodontal infrabony defects, extraction site and augmentation of the alveolar ridge
Device Description
Unigraft is a synthetic bioactive glass material for use in the repair of oral defects, including periodontal defects, extraction sites and augmentation of the alveolar ridge. It is manufactured as irregular shaped synthetic granules, sized at 200-420 microns. The bioactive glass (45S5 Bioglass) used in Unigraft is one of the most extensively studied bioactive glass compositions, which has been shown to bond to bone as well as soft tissue. The same material is used in legally marketed devices, including BioGran® and PerioGlas®. When implanted in the living tissue, the material undergoes a time dependent surface modification. The surface reaction results in the formation of a calcium phosphate layer, which is equivalent in composition and structure to the hydroxyapatite found in bone minerals. The biological apatite layer of the granules provides an osteo-conductive scaffold for the generation of new osseous tissue.

No
The device description focuses on the material properties and biological interactions of a synthetic bioactive glass, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is described as "a synthetic bioactive glass material for use in the repair of oral defects," which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device designed to treat or alleviate a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states "Unigraft is a synthetic bioactive glass material for use in the repair of oral defects." It describes a material that helps regenerate tissue, not one that identifies or analyzes a condition.

No

The device description clearly states that Unigraft is a "synthetic bioactive glass material" manufactured as "irregular shaped synthetic granules." This indicates a physical material, 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 medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states that Unigraft is a synthetic bioactive glass material intended for implantation into the body to repair oral defects. It acts as a scaffold for bone regeneration within the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the repair of periodontal defects, extraction sites, and augmentation of the alveolar ridge, all of which are procedures performed in vivo (within the living body).

The device is a medical device used for surgical implantation and tissue repair, not for performing diagnostic tests on samples outside the body.

§ 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.

The biological apatite layer of the granules provides an osteo-conductive scaffold for the generation of new osseous tissue.

5. Comparison with Predicate Devices

The Unigraft device is substantially equivalent to devices currently in US commercial distribution, which are classified as endosseous implant for bone filling and augmentation. Examples of such products include PerioGlas®. BioGran® and OsteoGraf. These products are made of bioactive ceramic materials with similar performance.

6. Device Testing

The Unigraft device was evaluated comparatively against a predicate device using a variety of test methods. The results of these tests demonstrate that the Unigraft device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device.
