Intended Use
3i dental implants are intended for surgical placement in the upper or lower jaw to provide a means for prosthetic attachment in single tooth restorations and in partially or fully edentulous spans with multiple single teeth, freestanding bridges and to retain overdentures. In addition, when a minimum of 4 implants, ≥ 10 mm in length, are placed in the the mandible and splinted in the anterior region, immediate loading is indicated.
Device Story
3i Dental Implants are endosseous implants used for prosthetic attachment in the jaw. This submission expands indications to include immediate occlusal loading in the mandible when using at least four splinted implants (≥10mm). The system includes standard abutments and a new single-piece abutment combining screw and abutment. Clinicians perform surgical placement and prosthetic loading. The device provides a stable foundation for dental restorations, benefiting patients by allowing immediate function in specific mandibular cases. Mechanical performance is verified through static compression and cyclic fatigue testing.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical evidence consists of literature reviews and case reports. Studies (e.g., Tarnow et al., Testori et al., Defrancq et al., Ibanez and Jalbout) demonstrate successful osseointegration and clinical outcomes for immediate loading of dental implants in edentulous and partially edentulous patients. Histomorphometric evaluation showed 78%-85% bone-to-implant contact. Success rates reported in literature support the safety and efficacy of the immediate loading indication.
Technological Characteristics
Endosseous dental implants and abutments. Materials are identical to existing 3i systems. Includes standard and new single-piece abutments. Mechanical testing performed per FDA guidance for screw-type endosseous implants. Testing included static load compression, cyclic fatigue, and insertion torque (passed at >5x recommended 20 Ncm).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring prosthetic attachment in single tooth restorations, partially or fully edentulous spans, freestanding bridges, or overdentures. Immediate loading is indicated for patients with at least 4 implants (≥10mm length) placed and splinted in the anterior mandible.
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.

| Device<br>Description | This 510(k) requests an expansion of the indications for use of all externally<br>and internally hexed 3i dental implants to include immediate loading<br>procedures in the mandible when using a minimum of four (4) splinted<br>implants $≥$ 10mm in length. Standard, commercially available 3i abutments<br>and screws can be used with 3i dental implants in immediate loading<br>procedures. Several new components will complement the standard line for<br>the clinicians use as necessary in immediate occlusal loading. |
|---------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Indications for<br>Use | 3i dental implants are intended for surgical placement in the upper or lower<br>jaw to provide a means for prosthetic attachment in single tooth restorations<br>and in partially or fully edentulous spans with multiple single teeth,<br>freestanding bridges and to retain overdentures. |
| | In addition, when a minimum of 4 implants, $≥$ 10 mm in length, are placed in<br>the mandible and splinted in the anterior region, immediate loading is<br>indicated. |
| Technological<br>Characteristics | The proposed 3i implants and accessories are identical to the currently<br>marketed 3i dental implants and accessories and similar in design, materials,<br>and intended use to other legally marketed dental implant systems that are<br>indicated for immediate loading. In addition to the standard 3i abutments, 3i<br>proposes to add a single piece abutment which combines the abutment and<br>screw into a single piece for ease of use. |
| Nonclinical<br>Performance<br>Testing | 3i implants have been mechanically tested consistent with the FDA guidance<br>document Information Necessary for Premarket Notifications Submissions for<br>Screw-Type Endosseous Implants (December 9, 1996). Static Load<br>compression testing was used to simulate biting forces placed upon the<br>implants and Cyclic Fatigue testing simulated the chewing forces placed upon<br>the implants. The new single piece abutment was tested for insertion torque<br>and passed at more than five times the recommended insertion torque of 20<br>Ncm. The single piece abutment was also tested and passed Cyclic Fatigue<br>criteria. Animal studies which proved early loading to be successful for 3i's<br>OSSEOTITE implant systems were submitted in K983347 (cleared September<br>23, 1998). Subsequent data continues to provide evidence of substantial<br>clinical success with early loading. Current practice in the field includes use<br>in a manner described within this 510(k) with clinicians and laboratories<br>working to achieve immediate occlusal loading in edentulous and partially<br>edentulous patients with Types I, II and III bone. |
| Clinical<br>Performance<br>Testing | A current review of the literature suggests clinical success using immediate<br>loading with fully and partially edentulous patients with OSSEOTITE, TPS,<br>Ha-coated, and grit-blasted surfaces when the occlusal load is well-distributed.<br>A few are summarized here and a bibliography may be found in Appendix 3 |

Tarnow DP,Emtiaz S, Classi A. Immediate loading of threaded implants at stage 1 surgery in edentulous arches: Ten consecutive case reports with 1 to 5 year data.Int. J. Oral Maxillofac Implants 1997; 12:319-324. Tarnow et al report on ten consecutive, edentulous cases comparing the use of implants manufactured by Nobel Biocare (cases 1-3 and 5-7), ITI Straumann (case 4), Astra Tech (cases 8 and 9)and 3i Implant Innovations (case 10). Of 107 implants placed, 104 osseointegrated. For medicolegal reasons, 38 of the implants were submerged and unloaded. The three failed implants occurred in cases 2 and 3, one submerged due to an infection from an adjacent extraction site and two loaded implants due to the cemented provisional restoration being tapped off at 4 months.
Testori T, Szmukler-Moncler s,Francetti L,Del Fabbro M, Scarano A, Piattelli A, Weinstein R Immediate loading of Osseotite implants: A case report and histologic analysis after 4 months of occlusal loading. Int. J. Periodontics Restorative Dent. 2001;21,5:451-459. Testori et al studied 12 Osseotite implants in the mandible of one patient of which 6 were bilaterally splinted and immediately loaded and 6 were left to heal in a submerged manner. Clinical and histologic osseointegration was confirmed for two of the immediately loaded implants by retrieval after 4 months of function. Histomorphometric evaluation revealed 78%-85% bone-to-implant contact, indicating osteogenesis and bone remodeling were not impeded by immediate loading.
Defrancq WD,Luc MDT,Rutten P. Immediate loading: Immediate loading of implants - clinical and technical procedure. Dental Dialogue 2002;2:246-275. Defrancq et al report successful use of an immediate loading technique in 102 procedures for both maxilla and mandible. Of 417 Osseotite implants in 68 mandible procedures only 2 were lost and only 9 of 309 Osseotite implants were lost in 34 maxilla procedures. In ten patients, implants were inserted in both the mandible and maxilla in the surgery for immediate loading.
Ibanez, JC, Jalbout,ZN. Immediate loading of Osseotite implants: Two-year results. Implant Dentristry 2002;11,2:128-134. Ibanez and Jalbout report 100% success in the use of 87 Osseotite implants for immediate loading in eleven patients after two-three years follow-up. Follow-up consisted of both clinical and radiographic examination which found no implant mobility or periimplant radiolucency.
Clincal reports are included in Appendix 3 for reference by Chiapasco et al, Jaffin et al, Schnitman et al, Szmukler-Moncler et al, and Balshi and Wolfinger which discuss the use of immediate loading with various competitive implants to which 32 implants are substantially equivalent in design and materials.
