The document describes a physical dental implant and its intended use and design, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is described as an implant intended to provide support and stabilize dentures, restoring chewing function, which are therapeutic actions.
No
The device is described as an implant intended for surgical placement to provide support for crown and bridge applications or dentures, and to restore chewing function. It is a prosthetic device, not one that identifies or analyzes a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "titanium Alloy threaded screw," which is a physical hardware component, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant for providing temporary support and fixation of dental prosthetics (crowns, bridges, dentures) in the mouth. This is a surgical procedure performed in vivo (within the body).
- Device Description: The device is described as a "titanium Alloy threaded screw" intended for surgical placement. This is a physical implant, not a reagent, instrument, or system used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body).
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting diseases or conditions, or providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment decisions based on in vitro analysis.
In summary, the ERA Implant is a medical device intended for surgical implantation, not for performing diagnostic tests on specimens outside the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The ERA Implant is intended for surgical placement in edentulous anterior regions of the Hic Ervi infigure is moulary arch to provide temporary support and permit immediate maxiliary and ongoing fixation of new or existing crown and bridge applications, for full or partial dentures, with minimal invasive surgical intervention.
The ERA Implant is indicated for Use as a temporary support, when placed between traditional implants to stabilize a denture during healing period, and to restore the patient's chewing function.

Device Description
The Sterngold ERA Implant is a titanium Alloy threaded screw intended to have a simpler and quicker installation procedure than is currently used for conventional implants. This design will enable the physician to quickly and efficiently establish an inexpensive temporary restorative solution to patients undergoing longer-term. conventional implantation therapy.
The Sterngold ERA Implant is available in 2.2 mm diameter and lengths of 10 mm. 13 mm. and 15 mm. The head features two designs - One implant featuring our ERA abutment interface with 1.2mm. 3mm. 4mm cuff heights and offers a 0°, 5°, 11°, and 17° angle abutments. The second implant with cuff heights of .76mm, 2mm, 3mm, and 4mm with no angles.

§ 872.3640 Endosseous dental implant.
(a)
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.(b)
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.
