Device Story

System comprises titanium bone plates and screws for maxillofacial/orthognathic surgery. Plates (unalloyed titanium, ASTM F67) and screws (titanium alloy, ASTM F136) provide rigid fixation for bone fractures, reconstruction, and orthognathic procedures. Screws are self-tapping or self-drilling. Surgeon selects plate/mesh size and shape based on anatomical site (mandible, maxilla, zygomatic, orbital, sinus) and defect severity. Devices implanted during surgery to stabilize bone segments; facilitate healing; restore facial structure. No electronic components or software.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only; no clinical data provided. Performance tests on representative screws demonstrated results similar to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Unalloyed titanium (ASTM F67) for plates/meshes; Titanium 6Al 4V alloy (ASTM F136) for screws. Plate thickness: 0.4–1.7 mm. Screw diameter: 1.5–3.0 mm. Mechanical fixation via plates and screws. No energy source or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring fixation or reconstruction of the mid-face, maxillofacial skeleton, mandible, or maxilla due to trauma, tumor resection, infection, or orthognathic surgery. Includes use for comminuted fractures, bone loss, and contour irregularities.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A bone plate is a metal device intended to stabilize fractured bone structures in the oral cavity. The bone segments are attached to the plate with screws to prevent movement of the segments.

Surgical locations for device placement includes fracture and reconstruction sites in the mandible, maxilla, zycomatic bone and orbital socket. Plates range in shape and size to aid the surgeon in repairing bone. Plate shapes include Oblique I, T, Curve, Straight, Y, Double Y, Box, X, H and Z. The sizes for the plates range from 0.4 to 1.0 mm thick and up to 100 mm in length. Plates are made from medical grade unalloyed titanium (commercially pure Titanium grade 4, ASTM F-67). The screws are made from alloyed titanium (Titanium 6Al 4V, ASTM F-136). The screws have two designs, a selftapping screw that is to be used after pre-drilling pilot holes and a self-drilling screw that does not require a predrilled hole. Screws have diameters ranging from 1.5 to 2.3 mm and lengths from 3 to 24 mm. #### Frontier Devices Orthognathic System The Frontier Devices Orthognathic System consists of titanium bone plates and screws of various shapes and sizes. The plates are made from unalloyed titanium that conforms to the ASTM F67 standard. Plates range in shape and size to aid the surgeon in repairing the maxilla and mandible. Plate shapes include L-Tooth, L-Zigomatic, and Straight. The sizes for the plates range from 0.8 to 1.0 mm thick and up to 42 mm in length. The screws are self-tapping screws that require a pre-drilled pilot hole and are made from a titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V, that conforms to the ASTM F136 standard. Screws are 2.0 to 2.7 mm in diameter and range in length from 6 to 22 mm. This system provides a wide variety of specific screws and plates intended for use for maxillofacial trauma, maxillofacial, orbital reconstruction and specialized orthognathic surgery. The indications include mandible and maxilla trauma, reconstruction of the mandible or maxillary fixation and orthognathic surgery. Surgical locations for device placement includes fracture and reconstruction sites in the mandle. {2}------------------------------------------------ ### Frontier Devices Mandible Reconstruction System The Frontier Devices Mandible Reconstruction System consists of titanium bone plates and screws of various shapes and sizes intended for use for maxillofacial, orbital reconstruction and specialized orthognathic surgery. The indications include mandible trauma, such as, severe comminution and bone loss and unstable mandible fractures; mandible reconstruction such as, bridging defects after tumor resection or severe infection; intermaxillary fixation, and orthognathic surgery. Surgical locations for device placement includes fracture and reconstruction sites in the mandible. The plates are made from unalloyed titanium that conforms to the ASTM F67 standard. Plates are 1.25 to 1.70 mm thick and up to 56 mm in length. The plates come in a variety of shapes and sizes to aid the surgeon in repairing the maxilla and mandible. Plate shapes include straight and angled. The screws are self-tapping screws that require a pre-drilled pilot hole and are made from a titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V, that conforms to the ASTM F136 standard. Screws are 2.3 to 3.0 mm in diameter and range in length from 5 to 18 mm. ### Frontier Devices Mesh System The Frontier Devices Mesh System consists of titanium meshes and screws of various shapes and sizes. Reconstruction of maxillofacial defects can be carried out with titanium mesh to reconstruct the missing framework of the maxillofacial area. The defects can be caused by acute trauma, tumor removal, and previous operations. The Mesh System is indicated for immediate reconstruction in the primary treatment of comminuted fractures with bone loss in non load-bearing areas, treatment of contour irregularities (possibly in combination with bone or cartilage grafts), and applicability for orbital and sinus defects. The desired strength, contour ability and desired location are all factors that determine which size and thickness of mesh the surgeon selects. Surgical locations for device placement includes fracture and reconstruction sites in the mandible, maxilla, orbital and sinus regions. The meshes are made from unalloyed titanium that conforms to the ASTM F67 standard. Meshes are 0.45, 0.60 and 0.867 mm thick and come in a variety of shapes and sizes that are designed for mesh applications. The 0.4 mm thick mesh is less rigid and more contour-able and intended for small voids/defects. The 0.6 mesh is more rigid and is intended for larger voids/defects. The 0.87 mm mesh offers the greatest strength and is intended for larger defects. The screws are self-drilling screws that do not require a pre-drilled pilot hole and are made from a titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V, that conforms to the ASTM F136 standard. Screws are 1.5 to 2.3 mm in diameter and range in length from 3 to 6 mm. ## Intended Use: ## Frontier Devices Maxillofacial System Frontier Devices Maxillofacial System is intended for use in selective trauma of the mid-facial skeleton; maxillofacial surgery; reconstructive procedures; and selective orthognathic surgery of the maxilla and chin. {3}------------------------------------------------ #### Frontier Devices Orthognathic System Frontier Devices Orthognathic System is intended for use in selective trauma of the mid-facial skeleton; maxillofacial surgery; reconstructive procedures; and selective orthognathic surgery of the maxilla and chin. #### Frontier Devices Mandible Reconstructive System The Frontier Devices Mandible Reconstructive System is intended for use in selective trauma of the mid-face and maxillofacial skeleton; maxillofacial surgery; reconstructive procedures; and selective orthognathic surgery of the maxilla and chin. #### Frontier Devices Mesh System Frontier Devices Mesh System is intended for use in selective trauma of the mid-face and maxillofacial skeleton; maxillofacial surgery; reconstructive procedures; and selective orthognathic surgery of the maxilla and chin. #### Technology Characteristics The plates and screws of the five different Frontier Devices systems have similar dimensions, designs and materials as the predicate devices The plates are between 0.4 and 1.7 mm thick, made from unalloyed titanium (ASTM F67) and have similar design shapes and sizes as the predicate devices. The screws are all made from titanium alloy (ASTM F136) with diameters between 1.5 and 3.0 mm and lengths of 3-22mm which are similar to the predicate devices. #### Performance Tests Performance tests on representative screws showed them to have similar results as predicate screws. #### Substantial Equivalence The Frontier Devices Maxillofacial, Orthognathic, Mandible Reconstruction and Mesh Systems consist of plates and screws that are identical in material composition and have the same indications for use as the relevant predicate devices. All of the technical characteristics are substantially equivalent to the corresponding characteristics of the predicate devices. There may be slight differences in dimensions and shapes between the Frontier Devices Systems and the predicate devices, however, these minor differences raise no new issues of safety and efficacy of the device. {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
