### 4. Device Description:

The purpose of a Patient-Specific abutment is to satisfy customer needs that are otherwise difficult to meet with off-the-shelf abutments. They can be manufactured in multiple sizes, shapes, and angles. They frequently incorporate the modifications typically done at a dental laboratory or "chair-size" by a dentist. Traditional methodologies require the customer (dentist/laboratory technician) to begin with a "stock" abutment and use manual subtractive techniques to remove material from this original "stock" design. However, the Patient-Specific abutment will incorporate these same modifications desired by the customer (dentist/laboratory technician) at the time of fabrication at the manufacturing facility.

The Zimmer Zfx Abutment for NobelReplace Implant System is a dental implant abutment with a fixed competitor compatible interface. It is designed for use with NobelReplace endosseous dental implants to support single or multi tooth restorations. The abutment-implant interface is an internal tri-lobe. The engineering drawings list ranges in areas (attributes) of the abutment that may be modified depending upon patient-specific needs.

The abutment is composed of Titanium alloy (Ti6AI4V) and it is secured to the implant with a separate Titanium allov screw for retention.

The new abutment will be available with a choice of 3.5mm, 4.3mm, 5.0mm, and 6.0mm platform diameters. The maximum abutment anqulation will be 20°. The new abutment will interface with Nobel Replace implants with an internal tri-lobe connection.

### ട. Indications for Use:

The Zimmer Zfx Abutment for Nobel Replace Implant System is designed for use as a terminal or intermediate abutment for cement retained prostheses. The abutment can be used with NobelReplace, Replace Select and NobelSpeedy Replace implants with a Narrow Platform (NP) Ø 3.5 mm, Regular Platform (RP) Ø 4.3 mm, Wide Platform (WP) Ø 5.0 mm or 6.0 Platform (6.0) Ø 6.0 mm.

#### 6. Device Comparison:

The new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate relative to material and general design features. The function in the endosseous implant system remains the same as the predicate devices. It is fabricated from Titanium alloy and utilizes the tri-lobe implant/abutment interface. which is similar in size and shape (for a given platform diameter) to the predicate device. The new device will be affixed to the implant by a retaining screw, the same manner as the predicate. Mechanical fatigue testing has demonstrated that all sizes of the implant/abutment assembly are mechanically suitable for placement in all regions of the mouth, including the posterior.

### 8. Non-Clinical Testing:

Non-clinical test data was used to support the decision of substantial equivalence. This consisted of reverse engineering, compatibility analysis and mechanical fatigue testing. The NobelReplace interface was reverse engineered based on actual measurements taken off NobelReplace implants, abutments and retaining screws in order to assure that the Zimmer Zfx Abutment for NobelReplace Implant System is compatible with NobelReplace Implants with tri-lobe connection. Dimensional specifications were developed for the Zimmer fabricated components based on the reverse engineering results. A tolerance analysis as well as a rotational analysis was conducted to illustrate the nature of fit between the Zimmer fabricated parts and the OEM implant. To verify the compatibility of the Zimmer device to the OEM device, fatigue testing was completed using Zimmer fabricated abutments assembled to OEM implants in accordance with the FDA guidance Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments. The results were compared to fatigue testing data of the NobelReplace predicate device and demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Based on the reverse engineering process, as well as verification of the final connection dimensions and tolerances, the
