Indications for Use
This product is designed for use in the placement of the “Dual Integrator” Dental Implant (K944225). The Parallel Pin is used to insure correct vertical placement of the implant. The Depth Gauge is used to measure the depth of surgical site, while the Surgical Ratchet is used to screw the “Dual Integrator” Dental Implant into the surgical site. These products along with the “Dual Integrator” Dental Implant make up the total system of tooth replacement by Implant Integration Systems.
Device Story
The “Dual Integrator” Dental Implant Accessories consist of a parallel pin, depth gauge, and surgical ratchet. These manual surgical instruments are used by clinicians during dental implant surgery. The parallel pin assists in verifying correct vertical implant placement; the depth gauge measures the surgical site depth; the surgical ratchet provides the mechanical torque required to screw the implant into the prepared site. These tools are integral to the “Dual Integrator” system for tooth replacement. They function as standard manual surgical instrumentation to facilitate accurate implant positioning and installation.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only; no clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Manual surgical instruments constructed of stainless steel. Includes parallel pins, depth gauges, and surgical ratchets. Designed for use with the “Dual Integrator” Dental Implant system.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in the surgical placement of the “Dual Integrator” Dental Implant for tooth replacement procedures.
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.
