Indications for Use
Anker II Dental Implant System is intended to be surgically placed in the alveolar bone of upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, and to restore the patient's chewing function. Anker II Dental Implant System is intended for delayed loading. No matter placing implants in anterior or posterior region, we recommend choosing the diameter of implants as large as possible. The prosthetic restorations used are single crowns, bridges and partial or full dentures, which are connected to the implants through the corresponding components (abutments). Specific indications for small diameter (≥03.3mm) and short (length ≤ 7mm) dental implants: Because of their reduced mechanical stability, small diameter and short implants are only used in cases with a low mechanical load. We recommend only used in the maxillary lateral incisor or the mandibular central incisors.
Device Story
Anker II Dental Implant System consists of endosseous dental implants and associated abutments; surgically placed in alveolar bone of upper or lower jaw arches; provides support for prosthetic devices (single crowns, bridges, partial/full dentures) to restore chewing function. Intended for delayed loading. Clinician selects implant diameter/length based on anatomical region and mechanical load requirements. Small diameter/short implants restricted to low-load applications in specific incisor regions. Device serves as mechanical foundation for dental restoration; benefits patient by replacing missing teeth and improving masticatory function.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Endosseous dental implant system; includes implants and abutments. Designed for surgical placement in alveolar bone. Mechanical stability varies by dimensions; small diameter (≥3.3mm) and short (≤7mm) variants have reduced mechanical stability compared to standard sizes. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring dental prosthetic support via surgical placement in the alveolar bone of the upper or lower jaw. Supports single crowns, bridges, and partial or full dentures. Small diameter (≥3.3mm) and short (≤7mm) implants are indicated only for low mechanical load cases, specifically maxillary lateral incisors or mandibular central incisors.
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.
