Indications for Use
BTI Dental Implants Tiny® Ø3.0 are intended to be used to restore missing teeth in partially or fully edentulous patients and/or the fixation of overdentures to restore or enhance the chewing capacity of patients. These implants shall be used only to replace maxillary lateral incisors and mandibular lateral and central incisors. Immediate loading is recommended when there is good primary stability and an appropriate occlusal load.
Device Story
BTI Dental Implant Tiny® Ø3.0 is a self-tapping, threaded, root-form dental implant. Fabricated from titanium; available in 3.0mm diameter and lengths of 11.5, 13, and 15mm. Used by dental professionals in clinical settings to replace specific missing teeth (maxillary lateral incisors, mandibular lateral/central incisors) or fixate overdentures. Implant is surgically placed into the jawbone to restore chewing capacity. Immediate loading is recommended given sufficient primary stability and appropriate occlusal load.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on bench testing and design comparison to legally marketed predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Root-form, self-tapping, threaded dental implant. Material: Titanium. Diameter: 3.0mm. Lengths: 11.5, 13, 15mm. Mechanical fixation principle.
Indications for Use
Indicated for partially or fully edentulous patients requiring restoration of missing teeth or fixation of overdentures. Specifically limited to replacement of maxillary lateral incisors and mandibular lateral and central incisors.
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.
