Indications for Use
The A.B. Dental Devices dental implant system is indicated for prosthodontic reconstruction in partially or completely edentulous patients. The dental implants are intended for placement in the maxilla or mandible to anchor and support dental prosthetic restorations. Implant placement may be performed using either a one-stage or two-stage surgical protocol. One-piece implants are intended for use only with a one-stage surgical procedure. When a one-stage surgical approach is applied, the implants are intended for immediate loading when good primary stability is achieved and with appropriate occlusal loading. Narrow (Ø3.0 mm) implants from the I5 and I55 families are intended for single-unit restorations in maxillary or mandibular incisor positions. Short (length < 7 mm) implants are intended for use only with straight abutments and should be placed using a two-stage surgical approach only. Prosthetic products are intended for integration with a dental implant to support single or multiple tooth prostheses. All digitally designed abutments for use with AB Dental Pre-Face Blank Abutments are intended to be sent to AB Dental validated milling center for manufacture.
Device Story
Dental Implant System provides endosseous implants and prosthetic components for tooth replacement; used by dental surgeons in clinical settings. Implants placed in maxilla or mandible to anchor prosthetic restorations; supports single or multiple tooth prostheses. System includes one-stage and two-stage surgical protocols; immediate loading permitted for one-stage procedures given sufficient primary stability. Digitally designed abutments require manufacturing at validated milling centers. System provides structural foundation for dental prosthetics; improves patient masticatory function and aesthetics.
Indications for Use
Indicated for prosthodontic reconstruction in partially or completely edentulous patients requiring dental prosthetic restoration support in the maxilla or mandible. Specific constraints: Narrow (Ø3.0 mm) implants limited to single-unit restorations in incisor positions; short implants (< 7 mm) limited to straight abutments and two-stage surgical protocols; one-piece implants limited to one-stage surgical protocols.
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.
