Intended Use

Straumann® dental implants are indicated for oral endosteal implantation in the upper and lower jaw and for the functional and esthetic oral rehabilitation of edentulous and partially dentate patients. Straumann dental implants can also be used for immediate or early implantation following extraction or loss of natural teeth. Implants can be placed with immediate function on single-tooth and/or multiple tooth applications when good primary stability is achieved and with appropriate occlusal loading, to restore chewing function. The prosthetic restorations used are single crowns, bridges and partial or full dentures, which are connected to the implants by the corresponding elements (abutments).

Device Description

The subject devices represent a line extension of the previously cleared implants of the Straumann Dental Implant System. The subject devices represent a full line of Straumann implants having the Ti-13Zr alloy (Roxolid®) and the SLA grit blast and acid etch surface finish in the same diameters, lengths, emergence profiles and implant-to abutment interfaces as previously cleared implants in the Straumann Dental Implant System.

AI/ML Overview

This document (K150938) describes the Straumann® Dental Implant System - Roxolid® SLA Implants, which are dental endosseous implants. The primary purpose of this 510(k) submission is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices. The key change is the use of a Titanium-13Zirconium alloy (Roxolid®) for the implants, compared to commercially pure Grade 4 Titanium in the predicate devices.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" for specific performance metrics in a tabular format. Instead, it relies on demonstrating that the new material change (Roxolid®) does not negatively impact the performance compared to the predicate devices which used commercially pure Grade 4 Titanium. The performance is assessed through various bench studies.

Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
Material Equivalence: The Ti-13Zr alloy (Roxolid®) must be shown to be equivalent or superior to commercially pure Grade 4 Titanium for dental implant applications.The subject devices are made from Ti-13Zr alloy (Roxolid®), which has been previously reviewed and cleared in K111357, K081419, K083550, K121131, and K122855. This implies its biocompatibility and suitability are accepted. Technological characteristics (connections, diameters, lengths, surface finish) are identical to predicate devices.
Dynamic Fatigue Performance: The new material implant system must meet established dynamic fatigue standards for endosseous dental implants.Dynamic fatigue test data consistent with FDA guidance and ISO 14801 have been referenced in support of this submission. (Specific acceptance values are not provided in this summary, but the stated consistency with ISO 14801 implies meeting its criteria).
Transfer Piece Removal Force: The force required to remove the transfer piece must be within acceptable limits.Transfer Piece removal force data has been provided. (Specific data and acceptance limits are not provided in this summary, but the provision of data implies it met acceptable levels).
Surface Finish Characteristics: The SLA surface finish must be consistent with prior cleared devices.Surface finish characteristics and surface chemistry analysis data have also been provided. The documents state the SLA surface finish remains the same as the predicate devices.
Sterilization Efficacy: The sterilization method must achieve the required sterility assurance level.Gamma Irradiation, 25 kGy min., validated per ISO 11137-1 and ISO 11137-2 to an SAL of $1 \times 10^{-6}$. This is identical to the predicate device.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document explicitly states that the substantial equivalence of the device is addressed via "bench studies" and "dynamic fatigue test data consistent with FDA guidance and ISO 14801." However, it does not provide specific sample sizes (e.g., number of implants tested), the exact test parameters beyond "ISO 14801," or the provenance of the data (country of origin, retrospective/prospective). This information would typically be detailed in the full test reports, which are not included in this summary.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This is a medical device approval based on bench testing and material equivalence, not on clinical performance or interpretation of images by experts. Therefore, the concept of "experts used to establish the ground truth" for a test set (like in a diagnostic AI study) is not applicable here. The "ground truth" for the bench tests would be the results obtained following the specified standards (e.g., force values, cycles to failure).

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable. As noted above, this submission relies on bench testing and material characterization, not human interpretation or adjudication of outputs.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. It is a dental implant.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This is not an algorithm or software device.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

The "ground truth" for this device's performance relies on engineering standards and scientific verification of material properties and mechanical performance. This includes:

  • Material composition analysis: Verifying the Ti-13Zr alloy (Roxolid®) composition.
  • Mechanical testing: Dynamic fatigue testing according to ISO 14801.
  • Surface characterization: Analysis of the SLA grit blast and acid etch surface finish characteristics and surface chemistry.
  • Sterilization validation: Conformance to ISO 11137-1 and ISO 11137-2 for sterility assurance level (SAL).

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. There is no "training set" in the context of this traditional medical device approval process. The device's performance is not learned through data like an AI model; it's designed and verified through engineering principles and testing.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable, as there is no training set for this device.
