Indications for Use
PerioType Rapid Implants are threaded, root-form dental implants intended for use in the upper and lower jaw to support prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore aesthetics and chewing function to partially or fully edentulous patients for loading after healing or immediate loading provided that stability requirements are satisfied.
Device Story
PerioType Rapid is a threaded, root-form endosseous dental implant. It is surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw by a dental professional to serve as an anchor for prosthetic devices (artificial teeth). The device restores aesthetics and chewing function for patients with partial or full tooth loss. It supports both delayed loading (after healing) and immediate loading protocols, provided clinical stability requirements are met. The device functions as a mechanical support structure within the alveolar bone.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Threaded, root-form dental implant. Class II device. Intended for surgical implantation in the jawbone. No specific materials, software, or electronic components described.
Indications for Use
Indicated for partially or fully edentulous patients requiring dental implants in the upper or lower jaw to support prosthetic devices for restoration of aesthetics and chewing function. Suitable for loading after healing or immediate loading if stability requirements are met.
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.
