The subject device abutment designs include Pre-Milled Blank Abutments, Multi-Unit Abutments (straight and angled), and abutment screws. Pre-Milled Blank Abutments are designed for custom abutment fabrication by a CAD-CAM process. All patient-specific custom abutment fabrication is by prescription on the order of the clinician. The Pre-Milled Blank Abutments have a maximum (before milling) diameter of 10 mm or 14 mm and a solid cylindrical design with an engaging or non-engaging implant connection. They are available in versions with a straight screw channel and with an angled screw channel for esthetic considerations. The Pre-Milled Blank Abutments are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti 6Al-4V). The design parameters for the CAD-CAM fabrication of a custom abutment from the Pre-Milled Blank Abutment are: - Minimum wall thickness – 0.45 mm - Minimum cementable post height for single-unit restoration – 4.0 mm (minimum cementable post height for single-unit restoration is defined as the height above the restorative margin) - Minimum gingival height – 0.5 mm - Maximum gingival height – 6.0 mm - Pre-Milled Blanks are for straight abutments only Multi-Unit Abutments: Straight and Angled are designed for attachment of multi-unit screw-retained restorations and are provided in three (3) designs, straight (0°), angled 17°, and angled 30°. The designs of the subject Multi-Unit Abutments are similar to the designs of Multi-Unit Abutments cleared in K242340 and K240208. All Multi-Unit Abutments are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V). The subject device straight Multi-Unit Abutments have a non-engaging, threaded design that attaches directly to the implant. The subject device straight (0°) Multi-Unit Abutments are included in this submission are similar in design to straight Multi-Unit Abutments cleared in K242340, K230143, and K222288. Subject device straight Multi-Unit Abutments are provided with a prosthetic platform diameter of 4.8 mm, and with a gingival height ranging from 1 mm to 5.5 mm. The subject device angled Multi-Unit Abutments are provided only in an engaging design that requires an abutment screw. The subject device Multi-Unit Abutments angled 17° and 30° are provided with a prosthetic platform diameter of 4.8 mm, and with a gingival height ranging from 2.5 to 4.5 mm. {9} 510(k) Summary Page 5 of 8 DESS® Dental Smart Solutions K252384 Select straight and angled Multi-Unit Abutments have an added coating of zirconium nitride (ZrN). This coating is identical to the ZrN coating used on abutments with ZrN cleared in K242340. DESS® Dental Smart Solutions Screws are designed to attach the abutment to the implant or the prosthesis to the abutment. There are a total of seventeen (17) subject device screws compatible with the subject device components or previously cleared components. The new screws have designs that are similar to those of screws cleared in K242340 and K240208. Screws are made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V). Select subject device screws are available with DLC (Diamond-like Carbon) coating and are identical to that used on screws cleared in K240208. ## OEM Implant Compatibility To ensure that the subject abutments and screws are designed to fit the corresponding OEM implants, the dimensions and tolerances of subject abutments and screws have been established by reverse engineering dimensional analysis of OEM implant bodies, OEM abutments, and OEM abutment screws or by a cooperative arrangement with the OEM implant manufacturer. The subject device abutments have the same OEM implant compatibilities as the components cleared in K170588, K191986, K212628, and K230143, except for the 3.2 mm diameter implants of the Legacy™2, simplyLegacy™2, Legacy™3, simplyLegacy™3 and Legacy™4 implant lines from Implant Direct Sybron Manufacturing, LLC, for which a new Letter of Authorization has been provided. ## Materials The subject device abutments and the subject device screws are manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V alloy conforming to ASTM F136 and ISO 5832-3. Select abutments are colored by an anodization process that is identical to that used on abutments cleared in K242340. Select subject device straight and angled Multi-Unit abutments have a Zirconium Nitride (ZrN) coating used to increase the surface hardness and reduce wear on the surface. This coating is identical to the ZrN coating used on abutments with ZrN cleared in K242340. Select subject device screws are available with DLC (Diamond-like Carbon) coating and is identical to that used on screws cleared in K240208. ## PERFORMANCE DATA Non-clinical data submitted or referenced to demonstrate substantial equivalence included: - provided in this submission was non-clinical analysis to evaluate the subject devices (including all abutments and abutment screws) in the MR environment using scientific rationale and published literature (TO Woods, JG Delfino, and S Rajan, "Assessment of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force and Torque on Metal Alloys Used in Medical Devices," Journal of Testing and Evaluation, Volume 49, No. 2, 2021, pp. 783-795); the analysis addressed parameters per the FDA guidance Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment (issued October 2023) including magnetically induced displacement force and torque; - referenced from K212538 was gamma irradiation sterilization validation (for the subject device implants) to a sterility assurance level of 10⁻⁶ by selecting and substantiating a 25 kGy dose using method VDmax²⁵, according to ISO 11137-1 and ISO 11137-2; analysis showed that the subject device abutments do not create a new worst case for gamma sterilization; - provided in this submission was bacterial endotoxin testing (Limulus amebocyte lysate, LAL) according to ANSI/AAMI ST72 to demonstrate sterile product met a limit of < 20 EU/device; - referenced from K170588 was moist heat sterilization for subject device abutments provided non-sterile to the end user, validated to a sterility assurance level of 10⁻⁶ by the overkill method according to ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1 and ANSI/AAMI/ISO TIR 17665-2; analysis showed that the subject device abutments do not create a new worst case for moist heat sterilization; - referenced from K242340 and K240208 was biocompatibility of the subject device components; - referenced from K170588, K191986, K212628, and K230143 was compatibility of the subject abutments and the OEM implants listed in the Indications for Use Statement; {10} 510(k) Summary Page 6 of 8 DESS® Dental Smart Solutions K252384 - provided in this submission was a new Letter of Authorization from the OEM implant manufacturer for 3.2 mm diameter implants from Implant Direct Sybron Manufacturing, LLC; and - provided in this submission was mechanical testing conducted according to ISO 14801 to support the performance of the subject device abutments in conjunction with the compatible OEM implants. No clinical data were included in this submission. ## EQUIVALENCE TO MARKETED DEVICES The subject device is substantially equivalent in intended use to the primary predicate device K242340 and the reference device K240208. All are intended to provide functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous maxilla and mandible. The subject device IFUS and the IFUS for the primary predicate device K242340 both contain identical language regarding the use of abutments and the requirement to send Pre-Milled Blank abutments to the Terrats Medical validated milling center for manufacture. The IFUS for the subject device differs slightly from that of the primary predicate device K242340 and reference device K240208 in terms of the lists of the specific OEM implant compatibilities. These differences do not change the intended use, do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness, and do not impact substantial equivalence. The primary predicate device K242340 and the reference device K240208, are in support of substantial equivalence of the subject device designs, material, manufacturing, and biocompatibility. ## CONCLUSION The subject device, the primary predicate device, and the reference devices have the same intended use, have similar technological characteristics, and are made of identical materials. The subject device, the primary predicate, and the reference devices encompass the same range of physical dimensions, are packaged in similar materials, and are sterilized using similar methods. Any differences in the technological characteristics between the subject device, the predicate device, and reference device do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness. The data included in this submission demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device and reference devices listed above. The basis for the belief of Terrats Medical SL that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices is summarized in the following Table of Substantial Equivalence. {11} 510(k) Summary Page 7 of 8 DESS® Dental Smart Solutions K252384 Table of Substantial Equivalence | Comparison | Subject Device | Primary Predicate Device | Reference Device | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | DESS Dental Smart Solutions Terrats Medical SL | K242340 DESS Dental Smart Solutions Terrats Medical SL | K240208 DESS Dental Smart Solutions Terrats Medical SL | | Product Code | NHA | NHA | NHA | | Reason for Predicate Device /Reference Device | n/a | Abutment designs, OEM compatibilities, materials, manufacturing, biocompatibility | Abutment designs, OEM compatibilities, materials, manufacturing, biocompatibility | | Intended Use | Functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous mandible or maxilla | Functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous mandible or maxilla | Functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous mandible or maxilla | | Indications for Use Statement | DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutments are intended to be used in conjunction with endosseous dental implants in the maxillary or mandibular arch to provide support for prosthetic restorations.
