Indications for Use
The M root-form endosseous dental implant fixture is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as an artificial tooth, in order to restore the patient's chewing function. The M endosseous dental implant abutment is intended to be used with the root-form endosseous dental implant to aid in prosthetic rehabilitation. The M root-form endosseous dental implant is not intended for immediate loading.
Device Story
M Dental Implant is a root-form endosseous dental implant system consisting of a fixture and abutment. Surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone by a dental professional to support prosthetic devices (artificial teeth). Restores patient chewing function and aids in prosthetic rehabilitation. Not intended for immediate loading. Device functions as a mechanical anchor for dental prosthetics.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on design and intended use.
Technological Characteristics
Root-form endosseous dental implant fixture and abutment. Mechanical device for surgical implantation in jaw bone.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring prosthetic rehabilitation of missing teeth via surgical placement of root-form endosseous dental implants in the upper or lower jaw. Contraindicated for immediate loading.
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.
Special Controls
*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a root-form endosseous dental implant. The root-form endosseous dental implant is characterized by four geometrically distinct types: Basket, screw, solid cylinder, and hollow cylinder. 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. (See § 872.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.)(2) *Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a blade-form endosseous dental implant. The special controls for this device are:(i) The design characteristics of the device must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use; (ii) Mechanical performance (fatigue) testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate maximum load (endurance limit) when the device is subjected to compressive and shear loads; (iii) Corrosion testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate corrosion potential of each metal or alloy, couple potential for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system, and corrosion rate for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system; (iv) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible; (v) Sterility testing must demonstrate the sterility of the device; (vi) Performance testing to evaluate the compatibility of the device in a magnetic resonance (MR) environment; (vii) Labeling must include a clear description of the technological features, how the device should be used in patients, detailed surgical protocol and restoration procedures, relevant precautions and warnings based on the clinical use of the device, and qualifications and training requirements for device users including technicians and clinicians; (viii) Patient labeling must contain a description of how the device works, how the device is placed, how the patient needs to care for the implant, possible adverse events and how to report any complications; and (ix) Documented clinical experience must demonstrate safe and effective use and capture any adverse events observed during clinical use.
