The summary describes a physical dental implant and its mechanical properties, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes.
The device is intended for oral endosteal implantation to stabilize removable dentures, which is a therapeutic purpose to aid patients with edentulism.

No.
The device is an implantable medical device intended for the stabilization of removable dentures, not for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical implant made of Roxolid material with an SLA surface and a TiN coating, intended for oral endosteal implantation. It undergoes manufacturing processes like machining, surface treatment, cleaning, packaging, and sterilization, and performance studies involve physical testing like insertion torque and wear testing.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Straumann Mini Implants are for "oral endosteal implantation in the upper and lower jaw" and are intended for "stabilization of removable dentures." This involves surgical implantation into the body (in vivo).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples, diagnostic testing, or providing information about a patient's health based on laboratory results.

This device is a medical device used for surgical implantation and stabilization of dentures, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Summary of Performance Studies

Insertion torque testing and wear testing were conducted according to the FDA quidance document "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff – Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments" and demonstrated the Straumann Mini Implants are equivalent to the predicate and reference devices.

The purpose of the insertion torque test is to check that the Straumann Mini Implants and the related cutting instruments make it possible to reach a suitable implant insertion torque. The average value of insertion torque measurements for each bone plate density and each implant length are within the define acceptance criteria. Wear testing is performed to evaluate the performance of the Optiloc® attachment with regard to its retention properties. The retention force loss of the Optiloc® blue ring on Straumann Mini Implants passed the acceptance criteria.

Dynamic fatigue testing was conducted according to ISO 14801, Dentistry – Implants – Dynamic fatigue test for endosseous dental implants and to the FDA Guidance document "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff – Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments". The tests were conducted in ambient air at room temperature and demonstrated the Straumann Mini Implants are equivalent to the primary predicate devices.

edentulous and partially dentate
patients (unless specific indications
and limitations are present, as stated
below). 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). When placing
implants in the posterior region, we
recommend using only large
diameter implants. In cases of fully
edentulous patients, 4 or more
implants must be used in immediately
loaded cases.
Specific indications for small

5.7 Performance Testing

Insertion torque testing and wear testing were conducted according to the FDA quidance document "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff – Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments" and demonstrated the Straumann Mini Implants are equivalent to the predicate and reference devices.

The purpose of the insertion torque test is to check that the Straumann Mini Implants and the related cutting instruments make it possible to reach a suitable implant insertion torque. The average value of insertion torque measurements for each bone plate density and each implant length are within the define acceptance criteria. Wear testing is performed to evaluate the performance of the Optiloc® attachment with regard to its retention properties. The retention force loss of the Optiloc® blue ring on Straumann Mini Implants passed the acceptance criteria.

No new issues of biocompatibility are raised for the subject devices. The Roxolid material was previously cleared per K083550 and the TiN coating was previously cleared per K190040.

The sterilization process for the Straumann Mini Implants as recommended in the labeling was validated in accordance with ISO 11137-1:2006, Sterilization of health care products – Radiation – Part 1: Requirements for development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices, 2006-04-05. The subject devices are sterilized via gamma irradiation at a dose of 25 kilogray (2.5 Mrad) Minimum and will be sterilized after packaging. A sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6 had been validated according to the standard cited above. The validation method used was the over kill bioburden method in accordance with ISO 11137-2:2013, Sterilization of health care products – Radiation – Part 2: Establishing the sterilization dose.

The subject devices are single use and are provided sterile. The shelf life is five years. Shelf life determination has been conducted in real time and accelerated (according to ASTM F 1980 - Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems for Medical Devices) samples. The subject devices will not be marketed as non-pyrogenic. The method used to make the determination that the device meets pyrogen limit specifications is LAL Endotoxin Analysis. The testing limit is 20 EU/device.
