Indications for Use
The 3.0 mm Bicon implants are designed for use in edentulous sites in the mandible or maxilla for support of a complete denture prosthesis, a terminal or intermediate abutment for fixed bridgework, support of the res, or as a single tooth replacement. The device may be used equally well in a single-stage or two-stage surgical procedure. It is indicated for immediate implantation in extraction sites or implantation in partially healed or completely healed alveolar ridge situations. When a one-stage implantationoroach is applied, the implant may be immediately loaded when good primary stability is achieved and the functional load is appropriate. The 3.0 Bicon implants shall be used only to replace maxillary lateral incisors and mandibular lateral and central incisors.
Device Story
Endosseous dental implants (3.0 x 8.0mm and 3.0 x 11mm) designed for surgical placement in mandible or maxilla. Used by dental professionals for tooth replacement (maxillary lateral incisors, mandibular lateral/central incisors) or prosthetic support. Implanted via single-stage or two-stage surgical procedure; allows for immediate loading if primary stability is sufficient. Provides structural foundation for dentures, fixed bridgework, or single tooth restorations. Benefits patient by restoring dental function and aesthetics.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on design and intended use characteristics.
Technological Characteristics
Endosseous dental implant; dimensions 3.0mm diameter by 8.0mm or 11.0mm length. Designed for surgical integration into alveolar bone. Product code DZE.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring tooth replacement in edentulous sites in the mandible or maxilla. Specifically for replacement of maxillary lateral incisors and mandibular lateral and central incisors. Suitable for single-stage or two-stage surgical procedures, including immediate implantation in extraction sites or healed alveolar ridges. May be immediately loaded if primary stability is achieved.
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.
