Nobel Biocare Receives FDA 510(k) Clearance for the Nobel Biocare N1™ Implant System

Envista Holdings Corporation announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has cleared the Nobel Biocare N1™ implant system. Boasting a biologically driven design of components and forward-thinking treatment protocols, the N1™ implant system represents a significant step forward in patient-centric implant solutions.

More than an implant, N1 is a comprehensive system of dedicated instruments, prosthetic components, and surgical protocols. New features of the system include an implant designed for immediate placement and predictable insertion torques, a trioval conical connection for the abutment to slide into place, and an emergence profile designed for soft tissue maintenance.

Innovative site preparation for greater patient comfort

The Nobel Biocare N1™ system includes the novel feature of the OsseoShaper™, an instrument that redefines site preparation and is set to reshape implantology with optimized workflows, greater patient comfort and faster treatment times. By gently 'shaping' the osteotomy at low speed and without irrigation, the OsseoShaper™ reduces noise and vibration compared to conventional drilling protocols. This leads to improved patient comfort and has been shown in pre-clinical studies to preserve vital bone.

Embracing surface chemistry and digital workflows

Fully embracing the new Mucointegration™ concept, the Nobel Biocare N1™ features the Xeal™ and TiUltra™ surface treatments.  With their specially tailored surface chemistry and topography, TiUltra implants and Xeal abutments can benefit from this design to optimize tissue integration at every level.  Nobel Biocare N1™ will be further integrated into the digital workflow with the DTX Studio™ suite, giving dental professionals more opportunities to provide patients with shorter time to teeth.

 "For over 50 years, Nobel Biocare has been a pioneering force behind implantology. The demand for high quality patient-centric solutions is higher than ever, and the Nobel Biocare N1™ system enables clinicians to set a new standard in personalizing, digitizing, and democratizing the implant treatment experience they can offer patients."

Amir Aghdaei, Chief Executive Officer, Envista
 
Patrik Eriksson, President Nobel Biocare, explained, "Drilling protocols have hardly changed over the past 50 years. However, the OsseoShaper™ provides a completely new approach designed for patient comfort, streamlined workflow, and improved predictability; while at the same time, respects biology to achieve fast osseointegration.  We are excited to partner with clinicians to bring the N1 system to US-based patients."
