Intended Use

The Neoss Access Abutments are designed to be connected to the Neoss implants and intended for use as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation. Neoss Access Abutments represent a two piece abutment system and are designed to be connected to the Neoss implants, to receive another abutment or framework and intended for use as an aid in multiple-unit prosthetic rehabilitation such as dental bridge restorations.

Device Story

Two-piece dental abutment system; connects to Neoss implants to support frameworks or secondary abutments. Facilitates multi-unit screw-retained restorations; allows up to 60-degree implant alignment; includes 10°, 20°, and 30° angulated options to optimize screw access hole positioning. Used by dental professionals in clinical settings. Frameworks (gold, ceramic, or solid titanium) are tightened onto abutments via prosthetic screws. Provides structural support for dental prosthetics; improves restorative outcomes in complex multi-unit cases.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Device tested in accordance with FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implant and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments (May 12, 2004).

Technological Characteristics

Two-piece dental abutment system; materials include titanium; angulated configurations (10°, 20°, 30°); designed for multi-unit screw-retained restorations; internal connection mechanism; tested per FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance for Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Abutments.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring multiple-unit prosthetic rehabilitation, such as dental bridge restorations, using Neoss implants.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An endosseous dental implant abutment is a premanufactured prosthetic component directly connected to the endosseous dental implant and is intended for use as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). 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.

#### 1. Identification of device

Classification name: Proprietary Name: Common Name: Classification Status: Product Codes:

Abutment, Dental, Endosseous Neoss Access Abutments Dental Abutment Class II per regulations 872.3630 NHA

#### 2. Equivalent devices

K061477 Nobel Biocare Multi-Unit Abutment

#### 3. Description of the Device

The internal connection of the Neoss Access Abutment provides a solution with a minimum height of the complete prosthesis of 5 mm and allows an overall implant alignment of up to 60 degrees without restraining the fabrication of a multiple-unit screw-retained restoration.

The angulated 10°, 20° and 30° abutments are intended for multi-unit cases in order to improve the position of the screw access hole.

Restorations can be based on Neolinks being incorporated into gold or ceramic frameworks, or solid titanium and ceramics frameworks. The frameworks are then tightened with prosthetic screws onto the Neoss Access Abutments.

#### 4. Intended use

The Neoss Access Abutments are designed to be connected to the Neoss implants and intended for use as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation.

#### 5. Technological characteristics, comparison to predicate device.

Substantial equivalence of the Neoss Access Abutments is based on the design similarities between the predicate Nobel Biocare Multi-Unit Abutments and Neoss Access abutments since they are very similar in terms of material, size, basic design and intended use.

#### 6. Discussion of performance testing.

The Neoss Access Abutments has, where applicable, been tested in accordance to the Guideline (Doc. No. 0043 - Guidance for industry and FDA staff, Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implant and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments, dated May 12, 2004) and the test results show that the abutment fills the recommended requirements.

#### 7. Conclusion

Based on comparison and performed testing, the Neoss Access Abutments are substantially equivalent to the predicate Nobel Biocare Multi-Unit Abutments and do not generate additional risks.

Dear Mr. Engman:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
