K091120 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the MEDPOR CONTAIN IMPLANT. Classified as Barrier, Synthetic, Intraoral (product code NPK), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Porex Surgical, Inc. (Newnan, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 19, 2010 after a review of 336 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Dental FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 872.3930 - the FDA dental device regulatory framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Dental review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
