General information | | | | Trade Name | (Adams Embed Dental Implant System) AEDIS ™ | | | Common Name | Endosseous Dental Implant System (screw type) | | | Classification Name | Endosseous Implant | | | Device Classification | Class II | | | Product Code | DZE | | Identification of Predicate Device: Imtec 1.8 mm diameter implant K031106; (See too Intra-Lock 2 mm diameter implant K070602; Sendax MDI 1.8 mm diameter implants 3972351; K990983; and K023067.) This submission is an abbreviated 510 (k) as discussed in the FDA's guidance document entitled "The New 510(k) Paradigm - Alternative Approaches to Demonstrating Substantial Equivalence in Premarket Notifications". Embed Technology LLC has provided information to demonstrate conformity with FDA's guideline document entitled Endosseous Implants 872-3640. ## 3. Device Description The device is a Titanium alloy, root form implant system consisting of: a self-tapping 1.8 mm diameter implant screw with an integrated hexagonal fitment for attachment of an abutment, and a cap screw designed to lock the abutment to the implant screw. AEDIS™ abutments are not angled. {1}------------------------------------------------ AEDIS ™ follows natural tooth morphology and is recommended for use in mandibular and maxillary anterior locations for restoration applications. The screw diameter is 1.8mm and is offered in lengths of 13.5 and 15mm. A minimally invasive procedure allows for immediate placement, and temporization in single and multiple tooth restorations. The implant screws are self tapping. A titanium abutment is provided and is intended to be mechanically affixed to the screw to hold a crown, bridge, or other prosthetic appliance. The prosthesis may be secured to the abutment by the use of adhesives or mechanically by the use of a screw. The abutment is cone shaped; 8 mm in height; has a hexagonal fitment to provide for the cap screw) to lock the abutment the implant screw. The 5 mm diameter of the base of the abutment is identical to the diameter of the top of the implant screw. When all elements of the system are attached to each other the tolerances between the parts are 3 microns or less. Immediate loading is not recommended where there is inadequate stability. Immediate loading should occur when the position of the implant provides adequate bone quality and quantity to allow proper immediate mechanical stabilization of the self tapping screw into the bone, and where occlusal and lateral forces can be limited with appropriate occlusal design when splinted. Dietary restrictions may also be required by the surgeon performing the implant procedure. AEDIS™ is offered in a kit including: implant components; surgical instruments; a tissue punch, leveling bit, and implant insertion instruments. The package also includes recommended surgical protocols, and illustration of recommended insertion techniques. The kit is packaged in a plastic container with appropriate labeling. The AEDIS ™ is delivered in sterile condition, however many practitioners also autoclave the device in their own Operatories. ### 4 Indications for Use AEDIS ™ provides a self tapping titanium screw indicated for immediate transitional splinting stability, or long term intra-bony applications such as fixation of new or existing crown, bridge or denture installations in partially or fully edentulous mandibles and maxillae. Immediate loading is not recommended where there is inadequate stability. Immediate loading should occur when the position of the implant provides adequate bone quality and quantity to allow proper immediate mechanical stabilization of the self tapping screw into the bone, and where occlusal and lateral forces can be limited with appropriate occlusal design when splinted. Dietary restrictions may also be required by the surgeon performing the implant procedure." 7 {2}------------------------------------------------ #### EMBED TECHNOLOGY LLC ## 5. Substantial Equivalence Comparisons EMBED has provided test results and related scientific data demonstrating the substantial equivalence of the !MTEC predicate device and AEDIS™. The fundamental scientific technology of the device is identical with or very similar to the referenced predicate devices. All materials, processing methods, packaging and sterilization methods are identical with those commonly used in the industry and the predicate devices. The subject and the predicate devices are either identical or substantially equivalent in size and materials, and all offer an abutment system for restorations. The Imtec predicate device and AEDIS packaging inserts each provide a dentist with the surgical protocols for use; pictorial examples of placement; the locations for insertion of anterior and posterior implants. The subject device and the predicates are distributed only to licensed dentists and doctors. EMBED has provided test results demonstrating the substantial equivalence of AEDIS™ and the predicate device. The tests were performed at an independent, highly qualified laboratory who certified the accuracy of the test results. # Summary of the technological characteristics of AEDIS™ and the predicate device | Device Name | AEDIS™ | | |-----------------------|----------------|----------------| | IMTEC 1.8 MDI implant | | | | Product Code | DZE | DZE | | 510(k) | K 100902 | K031106 | | Material | Titanium Alloy | Titanium Alloy | | Biocompatibility | Biocompatible | Biocompatible | | Sterility | Sterile | Sterile | - Self tapping titanlum threaded screws indicated for long term intra-Intended use: bony applications. Additionally MDI may also be used for intra-radicular transitional application There are no new issues of safety or effectiveness presented by the subject device. 8 {3}------------------------------------------------ ## CONCLUSION The predicate devices and similar implants have not disclosed any safety or health risks. There is no difference in design, materials, or indicated use of the subject device and the cited predicate or similar devices. Based on the indications for use; results of testing under third party supervision; technological characteristics and comparison to predicate devices, the Adams Embed Dental Implant System AEDIS ™ has been shown to substantially equivalent to the predicate device and therefore safe and effective for its intended use. No new or additional issue of effectiveness or risk to health is raised by the AEDIS™ device {4}------------------------------------------------ # DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows a circular logo for the Department of Health & Human Services USA.
