What is PD 6540 - Guidelines for developing dental implants about?
PD 6540 is a European standard that discusses the development of dental implants. PD 6540 outlines the general guidelines, principles, and concepts relevant to the production of a given type of dental implant.
PD 6540 also includes technical aspects and biological aspects.
Note: PD 6540 does not aim to define the ideal dental implants.
Who is PD 6540 - Guidelines for developing dental implants for?
PD 6540 on the guidelines for developing dental implants is useful for:
- Manufacturers of dental implants
- Test centres and medical laboratories
- Regulatory authorities
Why should you use PD 6540 - Guidelines for developing dental implants?
Dental devices are specially designed to be placed surgically within or on the mandibular or maxillary bone as means on the mandibular of providing resistance to displacement of a dental prosthesis. It can be either with part of the implant emerging from the gingiva for the direct abutment or fully embedded under the gingiva (only aiming at the support of a removable prosthesis).
PD 6540 assists you with dental implant configuration, marking labelling, and packaging of developing dental implants. Additionally, guide recommendations for technological and biological aspects of developing dental implants to ensure the acceptable quality of the product is maintained.
PD 6540 also provides you with various test methods for testing and evaluating developing dental implants.
With obedience and compliance to PD 6540, you can improve the efficacy of developing dental implants. In addition, ensure the health and safety of patients.
