Intended Use
Straumann® Bone Level Tapered 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 Bone Level Tapered 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 Bone Level Tapered Implants of the Straumann Dental Implant System (K140878 and K150938). The subject devices have the same diameters (3.3, 4.1 and 4.8 mm), the same implant-to-abutment interfaces (NC, RC), the same material (Ti-13Zr) and the same surface finishes (SLA, SLActive) as the identified primary predicate devices. The subject devices differ in that the lengths are 18 mm versus a maximum length for the primary predicate devices of 16 mm.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a line extension of dental implants with a different length. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms. The performance studies are bench studies focused on mechanical and biological properties, not algorithmic performance.

Yes
The device is indicated for "functional and esthetic oral rehabilitation" and to "restore chewing function," which are therapeutic purposes.

No

The device is a dental implant intended for oral rehabilitation, not for diagnosing a condition. Its function is to restore chewing function by supporting prosthetic restorations.

No

The device description clearly states it is a line extension of previously cleared Bone Level Tapered Implants, which are physical implants made of Ti-13Zr. The performance studies also describe bench studies on physical implants.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device for oral endosteal implantation to restore chewing function and provide support for prosthetic restorations. This is a surgical and restorative procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical characteristics of dental implants (diameters, interfaces, material, surface finishes, lengths). These are physical devices implanted into bone.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) as a medical implant.

Summary of Performance Studies

Per Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff - Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments dated May 12, 2004, the substantial equivalence of the subject device(s) are satisfactorily addressed via bench studies. The following studies are incorporated into this submission by reference to the submission for the primary predicate (K140878): Dynamic fatigue test data consistent with FDA guidance and ISO 14801 Biological compatibility per the ISO 10993 series standards Sterilization validation per the ISO 11137 series standards Shelf life (stability) per ASTM F1980.

In order to confirm that the reduced minimum implant diameter between the subject device (Ø3.3 mm) and the Neodent CM Drive reference device (Ø3.5 mm) does not result in a new failure mode, the following additional bench study was performed on all three diameters of the subject device: Peak insertion torque was measured while driving the implants to a clinically appropriate position relative to the surface of simulated bone material (polyurethane foam) having densities of between 10 and 40 pounds per cubic foot that had been prepared per the instructions for use.

§ 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.

in that the lengths are 18 mm versus a maximum length for the
primary predicate devices of 16 mm.
Intended Use:
Bone Level Tapered

endosteal implantation in the upper and lower jaw and for the

Materials:Versions of the subject devices will be produced from a
titanium-13zirconium alloy, trade named Roxolid®, as
previously reviewed and cleared to market per premarket
notification submission K140878.

The transfer piece is produced from titanium-6aluminum-
7niobium alloy (TAN). This is the same material as for the
predicate transfer pieces cleared to market per premarket
notification submission K140878. | |
| Technological
Characteristics: | The subject devices are identical in every respect to the
identified Bone Level Tapered predicate devices with the
exception of overall length; the subject device is 18 mm in
length where the longest previously cleared Bone Level
Tapered devices previously cleared to market per K140878 and
K150938 is 16 mm in length.

The 18 mm length subject devices have the same length as the
Neodent CM Drive device cleared to market per K150182,
however the Neodent CM Drive devices have a minimum
diameter of Ø3.5 mm where the subject device has a minimum
diameter of Ø3.3 mm. | |
