Indications for Use
The Intra-Lock Implant System has been designed to restore partially or fully edentulous patients. The implants have been designed to be used in either the mandible or maxilla and to support removable or fixed prosthesis, from single tooth replacement to full arch reconstruction.
Device Story
Intra-Lock Dental Implant System comprises root form dental implants, restorative components, and surgical instrumentation. Implants feature surface treatment via resorbable blast media and acid passivation to increase surface roughness. System supports fixed or removable prostheses for single-tooth to full-arch reconstruction. Used by clinicians in surgical settings for osseointegration procedures. Prosthetic options include screw-retained and removable overdenture solutions. Implants are provided sterile with cover screws and placement instruments; prosthetic components packaged separately for clinician selection post-osseointegration.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing and adherence to the FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Abutments.
Technological Characteristics
Root-form endosseous dental implants. Surface treatment: resorbable blast media blasting followed by acid passivation. Includes surgical drills, hand instruments, surgical trays, and handpiece adapters. Sterile packaging for implants. Non-electronic, mechanical device.
Indications for Use
Indicated for partially or fully edentulous patients requiring dental restoration in the mandible or maxilla, supporting removable or fixed prostheses ranging from single tooth replacement to full arch reconstruction.
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.
