Indications for Use
K3Pro Konus Additional Abutments and Implants are designed to be compatible with the K3Pro Konus Dental Implant system and are for use in edentulous sites in the mandible or maxilla for support of a complete denture prosthesis, a final or intermediate abutment for fixed bridgework or for partial dentures, or as a single tooth replacement. Delayed loading is recommended. The prosthesis may be secured to the abutment by the use of adhesives or mechanically by the use of a screw.
Device Story
K3Pro Konus Additional Abutments and Implants are dental components designed for integration with the K3Pro Konus Dental Implant system. Used in clinical dental settings by licensed practitioners to restore edentulous sites in the mandible or maxilla. Components provide structural support for complete dentures, fixed bridges, partial dentures, or single tooth replacements. Prostheses are attached to abutments via adhesives or mechanical screws. Device facilitates functional and aesthetic oral rehabilitation for patients with tooth loss.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence determination based on regulatory review of device characteristics and intended use.
Technological Characteristics
Endosseous dental implant components (abutments and implants). Designed for compatibility with the K3Pro Konus Dental Implant system. Mechanical fixation via screw or adhesive. Class II device (Product Codes DZE, NHA).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with edentulous sites in the mandible or maxilla requiring support for complete denture prostheses, fixed bridgework, partial dentures, or single tooth replacement. Delayed loading recommended.
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.
