Indications for Use
The Osstem Implant System is indicated for use in partially or fully edentulous mandibles and maxillae, in support of single or multiple-units restorations including; cemented retained, screw retained, or overdenture restorations, and final or temporary abutment support for fixed bridgework. It is intended for delayed loading. Ultra wide Fixture System is intended to be used in the molar region. Products with diameter of less than 3.25mm should be used exclusively for the lateral incisor in the maxilla and a central or lateral incisor in the mandible.
Device Story
OSSTEM Implant System consists of endosseous dental implants and abutments. Used by dental professionals to replace missing teeth in partially or fully edentulous patients. Implants are surgically placed into the mandible or maxilla to provide a foundation for prosthetic restorations, including crowns, bridges, or overdentures. System supports delayed loading protocols. Ultra wide fixtures are specifically designed for molar region placement. Small diameter fixtures (<3.25mm) are indicated for specific incisor sites. Device provides mechanical support for dental prosthetics, restoring oral function and aesthetics.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on bench testing and comparison of technological characteristics to legally marketed predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Endosseous dental implant system. Materials include titanium or titanium alloys typical for dental implants. Design includes various diameters and lengths for specific anatomical sites (molar vs. incisor). Intended for surgical implantation. Sterilization is required prior to use. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for partially or fully edentulous adult patients requiring single or multiple-unit dental restorations (cemented, screw-retained, or overdentures) or fixed bridgework support in the mandible or maxilla. Ultra wide fixtures are for molar regions; fixtures <3.25mm are restricted to maxillary lateral incisors or mandibular central/lateral 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.
