Indications for Use
3i dental implants are indicated for surgical placement in the upper or lower jaw to provide a means for prosthetic attachment to restore a patient's chewing function.
Device Story
OSSEOTITE® dental implants are endosseous devices surgically placed in the jaw to support prosthetic attachments; intended to restore patient chewing function. The device is identical to previously cleared predicate implants. Clinical evidence supports the safety and efficacy of the implants, specifically regarding long-term cumulative survival rates in both smokers and non-smokers, justifying the removal of smoking-related warnings from the labeling.
Clinical Evidence
Meta-analysis of clinical data on OSSEOTITE® implants. Results showed no significant difference in long-term cumulative survival between smokers and non-smokers. Additionally, survival of OSSEOTITE® implants in smokers was found to be greater than that of 3i machined implants in smokers.
Technological Characteristics
Endosseous dental implants; identical to predicate devices (K983347, K980549, K935544). No specific material standards or software components described.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring dental implants in the upper or lower jaw for prosthetic attachment to restore chewing function.
Regulatory Classification
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.
Special Controls
*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.
