## Indications for Use

A temporarily implantable material (non-resorbable) for use as a space-making barrier in the treatment of periodontal defects.

## Device Story

Cytoplast™ GBR is a non-absorbable barrier membrane; composed of nanoporous high-density polytetrafluoroethylene (n-PTFE) film; 250-micron nominal thickness. Used in dental surgery to facilitate bone regeneration by acting as a space-making barrier over periodontal defects. Supplied sterile in various shapes/sizes. Implanted by clinicians; provides physical barrier to prevent soft tissue ingrowth into bone defect sites; promotes bone healing. Biocompatibility established via history of PTFE use in vascular/cardiovascular implants.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on identical composition and function to predicate devices and established biocompatibility of PTFE material.

## Technological Characteristics

Material: Nanoporous high-density polytetrafluoroethylene (n-PTFE) film. Dimensions: 250-micron nominal thickness. Form factor: Various shapes/sizes. Sterilization: Sterile. Energy source: None (passive implant).

## Regulatory Identification

Bone grafting material is a material such as hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, polylactic and polyglycolic acids, or collagen, that is intended to fill, augment, or reconstruct periodontal or bony defects of the oral and maxillofacial region.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for bone grafting materials that do not contain a drug that is a therapeutic biologic. The special control is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Dental Bone Grafting Material Devices.” (See § 872.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.)(2) Class III (premarket approval) for bone grafting materials that contain a drug that is a therapeutic biologic. Bone grafting materials that contain a drug that is a therapeutic biologic, such as biological response modifiers, require premarket approval.
(c)
*Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required.* Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

Lubbock, TX 79413
(806) 792-2311

Contact Person: Barry K. Bartee, DDS

Date of Preparation: January 29, 1997

## II. DEVICE NAME

Proprietary Name: Cytoplast™ GBR

Common Name: Non-Absorbable Barrier Membrane

Classification Name: Implant, Endosseous For Bone Filling And/Or Augmentation.

## III. PREDICATE DEVICES

Gore-Tex™ Regenerative Material (K922627; W.L Gore &amp; Associates, Inc.)
TefGen-FD (K935137; American Custom Medical)
Imtec Biobarrier Membrane (K950306; Imtec Corporation)

## IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Cytoplast™ GBR Non-Absorbable Barrier Membrane is composed of nanoporous high density polytetrafluoroethylene (n-PTFE) film with a nominal thickness of 250 microns and supplied in a variety of shapes and sizes. Membranes are supplied sterile in sealed pouches.

The biocompatibility of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) has been established through a long history of use in a variety of long-term PTFE implant devices, such as PTFE vascular prostheses and cardiovascular patches. The Cytoplast™ GBR Non-Absorbable Barrier Membrane has been shown to be non-cytotoxic.

## V. INTENDED USE

A temporarily implantable material (non-resorbable) for use as a space-making barrier in the treatment of periodontal defects.

K964342 Amendment: Cytoplast™ GBR

# VI. COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICES

The Cytoplast™ GBR Non-Absorbable Barrier Membrane is identical in composition, function, and intended use to legally marketed predicate devices such as Gore-Tex™ Regenerative Material, TefGen-FD, and the Imtec Biobarrier Membrane.

Accordingly, Osteogenics Co. concluded that the Cytoplast™ GBR Non - Absorbable Barrier Membrane is safe and effective for its intended use and performs at least as well as the legally marketed predicate devices.

K964342 Amendment: Cytoplast™ GBR
