# Preat Abutments
The purpose of this submission is to expand the use of Preat Abutments, specifically the titanium blank abutment design, to be used in a validated equipment CAD/CAM workflow where specific abutment design software, milling machines and tooling have been validated to work with the previously cleared components in K220823 and K183518.
This submission includes a titanium blank design which is compatible with sixteen (16) implant system, with a distinct connection platform, as well as varying implant diameters and implant platform diameters, for each system.
{7}
The Subject device abutments may be placed in implants located in the mandibular or maxillary arches. The Subject device abutments are compatible with implant body diameters that range from 3.0 mm to 7.0 mm and implant platform diameters which range from 2.9 to 6.0 mm.
All abutments and screws are manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy conforming to ASTM F136 and are provided non-sterile to the end user.
The design parameters for the CAD/CAM Titanium Blank custom abutment are:
- Minimum wall thickness – 0.5 mm to 0.9 mm (varies by implant line);
- Minimum post height for single-unit restorations (length above the abutment collar / gingival height) – 4.0 mm;
- Maximum Angle – 30°*; and
- Minimum gingival height – 0.5 mm;
- Maximum gingival height – 1.5 mm to 4.5 mm (varies by implant line).
*Astra Tech® OsseoSpeed™ Plus (OsseoSpeed™ EV) compatible are limited to 0° maximum correction angle.
The minimum and maximum abutment design parameters listed above correspond to the abutment designs used in the mechanical testing data provided in the sponsor’s K220823 and K183518 device submissions.
All digitally designed CAD/CAM customizations for Preat Abutments are intended to be sent to a Preat validated Milling Center for manufacture or to be designed and manufactured according to a validated digital dentistry workflow which includes: Scan files from Intra-Oral and Desktop Scanners, CAD software, CAM software, a Milling machine and associated tooling and accessories.
## PERFORMANCE DATA
Non-clinical data submitted to demonstrate substantial equivalence included: reverse engineering of OEM implant bodies, OEM abutments, and OEM abutment screws to confirm compatibility; static compression and compression fatigue testing according to ISO 14801 and an assessment performed for MR Safety. For each compatible OEM implant line, except Astra Tech OsseoSpeed EV, worst-case constructs were subjected to static compression and compression fatigue testing.
Software verification included testing of restrictions that prevent design of components outside of the stated design parameters. In addition, the abutment design library was validated to demonstrate that the established design limitations and specifications are locked and cannot be modified by the user. To address the potential risk of damage to the implant-abutment connection geometry during the milling of the patient-matched portions of the abutment blanks, validation testing of the CAM restriction zones was conducted, including verification to show avoidance of damage or modifications of the connection geometry, and locking of restriction zones from user editing in the CAM software.
Biocompatibility has been demonstrated through the sponsor’s K220823 device testing according to ISO 10993-1, and ISO 10993-5. Sterilization validation was demonstrated through and leveraged from the sponsor’s K220823 device testing according to ISO 17665-1 and ISO 14937.
Non-clinical worst-case MRI review was performed to evaluate the Subject device including all compatible implant fixtures, abutments, bars, and fixation screws and their respective material composition in the MRI environment using scientific rationale and published literature (e.g., Woods, Terry O., Jana G. Delfino, and Sunder Rajan, "Assessment of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force and Torque on Metal Alloys Used in Medical Devices." Journal of Testing and Evaluation 49.2 (2019): 783-795). Rationale addressed parameters per the FDA guidance “Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment,” including magnetically induced displacement force and torque.

## EQUIVALENCE TO MARKETED DEVICE
The Subject device is substantially equivalent in Indications for Use, Technological Characteristics and design principles to Primary Predicate and Reference devices listed above. The Summary tables at the end of this section compare the Subject device and Primary Predicate/Reference devices.
## Indications for Use
The Indications for Use Statement (IFUS) of the Subject device combines the compatible implant systems of the sponsor's K220823 and K183518 Indications for Use Statements. The intended use with endosseous dental implants in the maxillary or mandibular arch to provide support for single-unit or multi-unit prosthetic restorations is the same for the Subject device and the sponsor's K220823 and K183518 devices. The Subject device does not include titanium base abutments which are included in the K220823 and K183518 submissions, so it does not reference this abutment design in the IFUS. The Subject device and the sponsor's K220823 and K183518 devices share the same intention to be sent to a Preat validated milling center for final manufacturing.
The IFUS of the Subject device and the K222044 Reference device are highly similar. They both share the same intended use in conjunction with dental implants to provide support for single-unit or multi-unit prosthetic restorations. They both share a common intention of the design and manufacturing of the final abutment by means of a defined, digital dentistry validated workflow. The Subject device and K222044 Reference device share similar compatible implant systems. Additionally, the Subject device lists both intra-oral and laboratory scanners as opposed to only intra-oral. Differences in compatible implant systems, and types of scanners identified in the workflow, do not change the intended use of the Subject and Reference device to provide support for single or multi-unit prosthetic restorations to restore chewing function.
None of the minor differences in Indications for Use Statements impact substantial equivalence because all IFUS express equivalent intended use to facilitate dental prosthetic restorations, and the indications are expressed equivalently using different specific wording.
## Technological Characteristics
Overall, the Subject device is highly similar to the Primary Predicate and Reference devices. The FDA product code, device regulation and intended use of the Subject, Primary Predicate and Reference devices to provide functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the maxilla and mandible to restore chewing function are the same for the Primary Predicate and Reference devices.
## Primary Predicate Device K220823 Preat Corporation Preat Abutments
The Subject and K220823 Primary Predicate device titanium abutment design is the same. The list of K220823 compatible implants and platform diameters are included in the Subject device. Subject device abutment design parameters for the common compatible implant systems are the same as the K220823 device. The Subject device materials, connection type, prosthesis attachment, supported restoration type, biocompatibility and sterilization method are the same as the K220832 device. The minimum Subject device compatible implant platform diameter is supported by the K220832 device. The Subject and K220832 device are intended to be manufactured by means of a validated milling center workflow. The Subject device differs in that it may also be manufactured by means of a validated digital dentistry workflow. This minor difference in manufacturing process does not impact the substantial equivalence of the intended use of the device and is supported by non-clinical bench testing and workflow software/equipment validation.

Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
