Indications for Use
To replace missing tooth roots for single tooth, partial tooth, and fully edentulous patients. ENDURE endosseous implants are designed to become an Osseointegrated prosthesis allowing the attachment of a partial or a complete prosthodentic appliance in the mandible or maxilla.
Device Story
ENDURE endosseous implant is a dental implant system designed for surgical placement into the mandible or maxilla. The device serves as an artificial tooth root to facilitate osseointegration, providing a stable foundation for the attachment of partial or complete prosthodontic appliances. Used by dental surgeons in clinical settings, the implant supports restorative dentistry by replacing missing teeth. The device is intended to integrate with bone tissue to restore function and aesthetics for edentulous or partially edentulous patients.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on technological characteristics and intended use.
Technological Characteristics
Endosseous dental implant designed for osseointegration in the mandible or maxilla. Device is a permanent implantable prosthesis support. No specific materials, dimensions, or software components are detailed in the provided documentation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with missing tooth roots requiring single, partial, or full tooth replacement in the mandible or maxilla to support prosthodontic appliances.
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.
