Intended Use

CalMatrix Calcium Sulfate Bone Graft Binder, when mixed with allograft or other bone graft material, is indicated to treat multiple types of maxillary and mandibular osseous and periodontal defects such as: Intrabony/infrabony defects . Furcation defects . Recession defects . Dehiscence/fenestration defects (natural teeth and prosthetic root form implants) . Extraction socket (ridge preservation) defects . Ridge augmentation defects . Sinus lift defects . Endodontic bony defects . After site preparation in the usual manner, select an appropriately sized package of CalMatrix Binder to go with the quantity of bone graft material of choice selected to treat the defect size. Combine the two dry ingredients, add the syringe liquid provided in the CalMatrix package and mix. Place the composite graft into the prepared defect site and suture the soft tissue flaps back in the usual manner or as indicated by clinical expertise. The graft material may be covered by a barrier or membrane prior to suture placement if, in the judgment of the clinician, it is indicated.

Device Story

CalMatrix is a bone graft binder composed of resorbable surgical-grade calcium sulfate hemihydrate and sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). Supplied as a dry powder, it is mixed with allograft or other bone graft materials and a provided liquid by a clinician. The resulting pliable composite is placed into maxillary or mandibular osseous/periodontal defects. The binder stabilizes graft particles, increases graft volume, and reduces particle migration during early healing. It allows clinicians extended working time for bone regeneration procedures. Used in dental/orthopedic clinical settings; applied by physicians or dentists. Benefits include improved graft handling and stabilization in defects with insufficient bony walls.

Clinical Evidence

Evidence includes animal studies using calcium sulfate/CMC and demineralized bone matrix. Results showed materials were well-tolerated with no inflammatory or foreign body response; substantial new bone growth observed in filled defects. Historical literature supports the biocompatibility of calcium sulfate (plaster of paris) and CMC.

Technological Characteristics

Composition: Calcium sulfate hemihydrate and ~10% pharmaceutical grade sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). Form: White, free-flowing powder mixed with liquid to form a pliable graft binder. Sterilization: Not specified. Connectivity: None. Software: None.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring treatment of maxillary and mandibular osseous and periodontal defects, including intrabony/infrabony, furcation, recession, dehiscence/fenestration, extraction socket, ridge augmentation, sinus lift, and endodontic bony defects.

Regulatory Classification

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.

Predicate Devices

## 3. Device Description

Lifecore Biomedical Calcium Sulfate Bone Graft Binder (CalMatrix) is a calcium sulfate material that contains resorbable surgical grade plaster of paris with approximately 10% of a pharmaceutical grade sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC).

The Binder is a white, free-flowing powder. Calcium sulfate (CS) hemihydrate and PHARMACEUTICAL grade sodium carboxymethylcellulose are commercially available as raw materials for use in several orthopedic and dental devices. Calcium sulfate/CMC, when used in conjunction with demineralized bone matrix (DBM), controls the particles in the bony defect where bony walls may be insufficient to stabilize the graft. It increases the graft volume, and reduces particle migration during the early healing phase. CalMatrix remains pliable after mixing which allows the clinician an extended time period to complete the bone regeneration procedure.

#### 4. Intended Use

CalMatrix Calcium Sulfate Bone Graft Binder, when mixed with allograft or other Calivianx Gulolan Gallato Don't sed to treat multiple types of maxillary and mandibular osseous and periodontal defects such as:

- Intrabony/infrabony defects .
- Furcation defects .
- Recession defects .
- Dehiscence/fenestration defects (natural teeth and prosthetic root form . implants)
- Extraction socket (ridge preservation) defects .
- Ridge augmentation defects .
- Sinus lift defects .
- Endodontic bony defects .

After site preparation in the usual manner, select an appropriately sized package of CalMatrix Binder to go with the quantity of bone graft material of choice selected to treat the defect size. Combine the two dry ingredients, add the syringe liquid provided in the CalMatrix package and mix. Place the composite graft into the prepared defect site and suture the soft tissue flaps back in the usual manner or as indicated by clinical expertise. The graft material may be aovered by a barrier or membrane prior to suture placement if, in the judgment of the clinician, it is indicated.

#### 5. Technological Characteristic Comparisons

Both CalMatrix and CAPSET are composed of calcium sulfate hemihydrate, with the CalMatrix grade exception that carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). CalMatrix and ALLOMATRIX utilize the same calcium sulfate (CS)/CMC blend, except that ALLOMATRIX is provided with human demineralized bone matrix (DBM) already mixed in. CalMatrix is to be mixed with DBM or other bone graft material by the clinician prior to application. CalMatrix is also substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of mechanical characteristics, product configuration, anatomical site, safety characteristics, and sterilization.

#### 6. Performance Data

Animal studies were conducted using calcium sulfate/ CMC and demineralized bone and as well as CS/cellulose with no DBM. All the test materials were well tolerated with no inflammatory or foreign body response in the animal models. Substantial new bone growth was shown in the filled defects at follow-up. Clinical use of this product was evaluated in animal and human studies.

## 7. Biocompatibility

The historical use of calcium sulfate as a bone substitute is well documented in the medical literature. Plaster of Paris (calcium sulfate hemihydrate) may be the oldest bone substitute material in continuous use. Its biocompatibility has been well established.

Sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) is in widespread use in a variety of industries including foods, cosmetics, medical devices and pharmaceuticals. Recent studies have

{2}------------------------------------------------

#### LIFECORE BIOMEDICAL, INC. CalMatrix™ Calcium Sulfate Bone Graft Binder

reported no inflammatory response or other adverse effects on bone healing associated with the use of CMC.

Both calcium sulfate and CMC have been shown to be biocompatible materials that are well tolerated in the oral environment for use in guided bone regeneration.

#### 8. Conclusion (statement of equivalence)

The data submitted in this 510(k) supports substantial equivalence of Lifecore CalMatrix to the following commercially marketed devices:

- Lifecore CAPSET Calcium Sulfate Bone Graft Barrier (K955096), Lifecore . Biomedical, Inc.
- ALLOMATRIX® Putty (K020895), Wright Medical Technology, Inc. .

Substantial equivalence is based on the indications for use, product design and configuration, and materials used. The intended use of CalMatrix is the same as CAPSET, and the materials used are the same as those found in ALLOMATRIX (with the exception that the human demineralized bone matrix is added prior to application). The comparative analysis demonstrates the substantial equivalence of Lifecore CalMatrix to the predicate devices in commercial distribution.
