Intended Use
Osstell Beacon is intended for use as a Dental Implant Stability Analyzer
Device Story
Osstell Beacon is a portable, handheld dental implant stability analyzer. It utilizes Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA) to measure implant stability. A Smartpeg (aluminum rod) is screwed onto the implant; the device emits a magnetic pulse from its integrated measurement tip to excite the Smartpeg. The device detects the resulting resonance frequency via a second coil in the tip. A microcontroller calculates the Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) value (0-100) from the frequency response. The ISQ value is displayed on the device's OLED screens. Used by professional clinicians in dental practices or operating rooms. The device is battery-operated and non-sterile, requiring a transparent barrier sleeve for use. The output assists clinicians in assessing implant stability over time; higher ISQ values generally indicate increased stability, while lower values may suggest stability loss or potential failure.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Portable, handheld instrument; battery-powered (Lithium-ion). Materials: ABS and PC plastic (food grade compliant). Sensing: Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA) using magnetic excitation and detection coils. Connectivity: Bluetooth 4.0 LE (for production purposes only). Dimensions: 210 x 35 x 25 mm. Weight: 0.07 kg. Sterilization: Not autoclavable; requires transparent barrier sleeve. Software: Embedded firmware for signal processing and ISQ calculation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in measuring the stability of implants in the oral cavity and maxillofacial region.

| Common Name: | Dental implant stability analyzer |
| Regulatory Class: | Class 1 |
| Regulation: | 872.4200 |
| Product Codes: | EKX - handpiece, direct drive, ac-powered |
| Predicate Device: | Osstell ISQ (K082523)-Primary |
| Tellos ISO Buddy (K143445) and Implantmed SI-1015 (K161957)- Reference | |
#### Device Description:
The Osstell Beacon is a modification of the Osstell ISQ (K082523). The system is designed to measure implant stability in the oral cavity and maxillofacial region. Similar to K082523, the Osstell Beacon is a portable, handheld instrument that involves the use of the noninvasive technique, Resonance Frequency Analysis. The system involves the use of a Smartpeg (aluminum rod) attached to the implant by means of a screw. The Smartpeg is excited by a magnetic pulse from the measurement tip on the handheld instrument. The resonance frequency, which is the measure of implant stability, is calculated from the response signal. Results are displayed as the Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ). The ISQ is a measurement of the implant and is
{4}------------------------------------------------
#### K181888
derived from the resonance frequency value obtained from the Smartpeg.
#### Intended Use:
Osstell Beacon is intended for use as a Dental Implant Stability Analyzer
#### Indications for Use:
Osstell Beacon is indicated for use in measuring the stability of implants in the oral cavity and maxillofacial region.
#### Summary of the Technological Characteristics:
The modifications to the Osstell ISQ since its previous clearance in K082523 include the following changes:
- . Enclosure design is smaller to be fully handheld. The measurement probe with tip is integrated into the enclosure and referred to as the measurement tip
- . Not possible to sterilize (autoclave). The device must be used with a transparent barrier sleeve. Commercially available transparent, barrier sleeves are recommended in the Instructions for Use.
- Different plastic material used in the enclosure (all being food grade compliant, 21 CFR §181.32 and 21 CFR §177.1580)
- . Updated user interface to make the measurement procedure even more easy and intuitive
- The device cannot measure while charging
- Bluetooth data communication .
These differences do not affect the substantial equivalence or performance of the device and do not change the intended use of the Osstell Beacon.
{5}------------------------------------------------
#### K181888
#### Summary of the Nonclinical Testing:
Based on the Risk Analysis, the verification and validation testing confirms the Beacon performs as intended. The Osstell Beacon was subjected to the same preclinical requirements and testing as the primary predicate device.
Though the recommendation require use of a transparent barrier sleeve, due to material changes, the device was evaluated in accordance with ISO 10993-1.
Additionally, cleaning and disinfection recommendations were validated in the event the Osstell Beacon should become contaminated due to a damaged barrier sleeve.
Performance testing was conducted to confirm compliance to the design specifications.
Osstell has provided information to support compliance of Beacon with applicable portions of the following standards and FDA Guidance documents:
- FDA Dental Handpieces Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions, 2007 ●
- . FDA Reprocessing Medical Devices in Health Care Settings: Validation Methods and Labeling, 2015
- . FDA Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices, 2005
- . ISO 10993-1
- . ISO 10993-5
- . AAMI TIR12:2010
- AAMI TIR30:2011
- . ASTM E1837-96 (2014)

- ISO 17664
- IEC 60601-1, Ed 3 2005 ●
- . IEC 60601-1-2:2015
- . IEC 62133
#### Substantial Equivalence Discussion:
The changes to the enclosure, no longer capable to withstand sterilization and instead use of barrier sleeves, electronics, user interface and communication do not change the intended use, nor do they affect the substantial equivalence as compared to the Osstell ISQ previously cleared in
