Indications for Use
The Nobel Biocare Kit Boxes are used in healthcare facilities to organize, enclose, sterilize, transport, and store medical devices between surgical uses. The Nobel Biocare Kit Boxes are not intended on their own to maintain sterility; it is intended to be used in conjunction with a legally marketed, validated, FDA-cleared sterilization wrap. Sterilization validations for the worst-case Kit Box included surgical instruments such as torque wrenches, implant drivers, direction indicators, drills, screw taps, screw driver and irrigation needles. The Kit Boxes were validated for a maximum load of 469 grams including kit box and instruments.
Device Story
Kit Boxes are modular, reusable containers for organizing, sterilizing, and storing surgical instruments (e.g., drills, drivers, taps) used in Nobel Biocare implant procedures. System consists of a base (silicone over-molded on plastic) and a removable transparent plastic lid; includes an insertable Kit Plate with silicone grommets and tool holders. Used in healthcare facilities by clinical staff. Device is non-sterile upon receipt; requires steam sterilization (dynamic-air-removal or gravity-displacement) inside an FDA-cleared sterilization wrap. Provides organized storage for instruments between surgical uses. Benefits include instrument protection and streamlined sterilization workflows. No mechanical stress exposure; biocompatibility confirmed via cytotoxicity testing per ISO 10993-5.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Validation included steam sterilization cycle parameters (temperature, exposure time, drying time) and cytotoxicity testing per ISO 10993-5 to ensure no toxic leachable substances transfer to instruments during sterilization.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Polymer, silicone, and aluminum (drill stop box only). Configuration: Perforated base, lid, and insertable plate with silicone grommets/tool holders. Sterilization: Steam (dynamic-air-removal and gravity-displacement). Reusable. Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in healthcare facilities to organize, enclose, sterilize, transport, and store medical devices between surgical uses. Used in conjunction with FDA-cleared sterilization wrap. Validated for surgical instruments including torque wrenches, implant drivers, direction indicators, drills, screw taps, screw drivers, and irrigation needles.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A sterilization wrap (pack, sterilization wrapper, bag, or accessories, is a device intended to be used to enclose another medical device that is to be sterilized by a health care provider. It is intended to allow sterilization of the enclosed medical device and also to maintain sterility of the enclosed device until used.

#### IV. Device Description
The Kit Boxes are a module-based kit system that can be organized in different ways according to the user's needs. A Module is composed by a Kit Box and an inserted Kit Plate. The Module can be used as a cleaning and sterilization container. Additionally, it is used for presentation and storage of products. These products are sold as standalone articles (Drills, Screw Taps, Depth Gauge, Implant Drivers, Torque Wrench etc.) and are available in a variety of combinations for different implant systems.
The Modules are intended for storing, organizing and sterilizing the instruments used during implant/prosthetic/retrieval treatment with Nobel Biocare implants.
The Module have 2 different sizes: The Main Module, and the Sub-Module.
#### Main Module
The Main Module measures 170 mm x 145 mm x 57 mm in size and consists of a Kit Box and a Kit Plate to be inserted. The Kit Box consists of a base with support (stand) and a removable transparent plastic lid. The base is made of silicone over molded on a grey or red plastic base. The inserted Kit Plate snaps into the base of the Kit Box and consists of a pattern of silicone Grommets and tool holders for instruments.
To accommodate the different systems, the Kit Plate is available with unique patterns, different color printing, different size of Grommets and different size tool-holders to meet the end user's needs.
#### Sub-Module
The Sub-Module (smaller Module) measures 170 mm x 57 mm and consists of Kit Box and a Kit Plate to be inserted. The Kit Box consists of a base with support (stand) and a removable transparent plastic lid. The base is made of silicone over molded on a grey or red plastic base. The inserted Kit Plate snaps into the base of the Kit Box and consists of a pattern of silicone Grommets and tool holders for instruments.
To accommodate the different systems, the Kit Plate is available with unique patterns, different color printing, different size of Grommets and different size tool-holders to meet the end user's needs.

#### Discussion
As seen above, the differences between the subject and predicate devices are the design and dimensions of the kit box/plates. Both the subject and predicate devices are intended to organize, enclose, sterilize, transport and store medical devices and other instrumentation between surgical and other medical uses.
#### VII. Performance Data
Kit Boxes are intended for storing and organizing instruments used during implant/ prosthetic/retrieval treatment with NobelBiocare implants. The following performance data is being provided or relied upon in support of the substantial equivalence determination. Additionally, due to the intended use of the subject device, the Kit Boxes and Kit Plates are not exposed to mechanical stress. No additional performance testing is required.
### Sterilization
The Kit Boxes are supplied non-sterilized at the health care facility by the enduser. The testing validation confirmed the parameters for temperature, exposure time, dry time and cool time.
### Shelf-Life
The Kit Boxes are reusable, non-sterile devices, there is no expiration date identified.
#### Biocompatibility Testing
Kit Boxes a are considered accessories for medical devices, which do not come in to direct contact with the human body; however, they are intended for storing and subsequently sterilizing the respective medical devices and should be evaluated according to AAMI/ANSI/ISO 10993-1:2009/(R)2013 Biological evaluation of medical devices -- Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process.
Surgical and restorative kit boxes pose a potential risk of contaminating the respective biocompatible medical devices with leachable substances released during the sterilization process. Therefore, Cytotoxicity testing in accordance with AAMI/ANSI/ISO 10993-5:2009/(R)2014 Biological evaluation of medical devices -- Part 5: Tests for in vitro cytotoxicity was performed and confirmed that no toxic leachable substances in a water-based environment were transferred to the medical device.
# VIII. Conclusion
Based on the intended use, technological characteristics, performance data, and nonclinical tests performed, subject Kit Boxes and Kit Plates are substantially equivalent to, and are as safe and as effective as, the legally marketed predicate device, cleared under K152241 under regulation 21 CFR 880.6850, product code KCT.
