The summary describes a physical dental implant and its associated components, materials, and performance testing. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, AI, or ML.
Yes
The device is an oral endosteal implant intended for functional oral rehabilitation of patients, which means it is used to treat a medical condition and restore function.
No
Explanation: The device is an oral endosteal implant, intended for functional oral rehabilitation of patients, not for diagnosing a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is an integrated system of endosseous dental implants with corresponding physical components (abutments, screws, instruments) made of a titanium-zirconium alloy. It is a physical implant, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Straumann® 4 mm Short Implants are "endosseous dental implants" intended for "oral endosteal implantation in the jaw" for "functional oral rehabilitation." This involves surgically placing the device directly into the body.
- Lack of Mention of Samples or Testing: The text does not mention any analysis of samples from the body or any diagnostic testing being performed by the device.
Therefore, the Straumann® 4 mm Short Implants are a surgically implanted medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Straumann® 4 mm Short Implants are indicated for fixed or removable reconstruction in situations of moderate to severely atrophic jawbone and with adequate bone quality that allows primary stability after implant insertion, where a longer implant cannot be placed due to limited vertical bone height.

Device Description
The Straumann® Dental Implant System is an integrated system of endosseous dental implants with corresponding abutments, healing abutments, closure screws and surgical and prosthetic parts and instruments. Straumann® Roxolid® dental implants are solid screw implants comprised of a titanium-zirconium alloy with the hydrophilic SLActive® bone anchorage surface that is large-grit sandblasted and acid-etched. In addition, SLActive® is in a chemically activated state, which is preserved by storage in a NaCI solution.
This premarket notification serves to add new dental implants to the Straumann Dental Implant System portfolio that are 4 mm in length. Other than the implant length, the subject devices are physically identical to the primary predicate tissue level devices except for the implant thread which is identical to the bone level primary predicate devices cleared under K130222.
The Straumann® 4 mm Short Implants are manufactured from the Roxolid® material with the SLActive® surface and are available in Ø4.1 mm with a Regular Neck (RN) Tissue Level implant/abutment interface and in Ø4.8 mm with an RN or Wide Neck (WN) Tissue Level implant/abutment interface.

5.8 Performance Testing
The following performance data support the substantial equivalence determination.
5.8.1 Sterilization Validation and Shelf Life
The implants will be provided sterile 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° had been 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 validation method used was the over kill bioburden method in accordance with ISO 11137-2:2006. Sterilization of health care products – Radiation – Part 2: Establishing the sterilization dose.
The packaging of the subject devices is identical to the packaging of the primary predicate device and the shelf life is 5 years when considering that the materials are not adversely affected by time.
There are no changes to the sterilization method or processes when compared to the Straumann predicate devices.
Pyrogenicity information provided is based on FDA Guidance on "Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submission for Devices Labeled as Sterile, issued on 21 January 2016." The subject devices will not be labeled as non-pyrogenic. The method used to determine the device meets pyrogen limit specifications is LAL Endotoxin Analysis with testing limit of 20 EU/device, based on a blood contacting and implanted device.
5.8.2 Biocompatibility Testing
Biological assessment has been performed according to ISO 10993-1:2009 "Biological evaluation of medical devices – Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" and to the FDA Guidance document "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, 'Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process', Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff, Document issued on: June 16, 2016" for each of the subject devices.
The subject devices have the identical nature of body contact, contact duration, material formulation and sterilization methods compared to the primary predicate devices.

510(k) Summary
5.8.3 Performance Testing - Bench
Evaluation of the endosseous surface area was conducted for the subject devices as well as the primary predicate and reference devices. The surface areas were evaluated for the total endosseous surface, initial bone-to-implant contact, as well as with simulated 1 and 2 mm of bone loss.
Dynamic fatigue tests were conducted according 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" and a modified ISO 14801 (Dentistry – Implants – Dynamic fatigue test for endosseous dental implants) test set-up due to the length of the subject devices. The test environment for the subject devices was ambient air. The Straumann® 4 mm Short Implants met the defined acceptance criteria and the mechanical strength requirements for its intended use. The results of the dynamic fatigue testing demonstrated the subject devices are equivalent to the primary predicate devices.
5.8.4 Performance Testing - Clinical
A review and summary of published clinical literature evaluating the use of 4 mm short implants in fully and partially edentulous adult patients and a summary of the complaint trends and vigilance reporting associated with the use of Straumann 4 mm short dental implants has been submitted to support substantial equivalence. Parameters evaluated in the clinical literature provided included study name, number of study participants, number of implants placed, duration of follow-up (in years); implant placement site, implant failures, survival rates and alveolar bone loss.
The clinical literature represents 57 cases with 118 implants of 4.1 mm diameter x 4 mm length, with 12 to 27 months of follow-up. Clinical cases in the literature were represented by the following patient scenarios:
- . Fixed partial dentures/splinted units (one implant per unit)
- . Pontic cases in combination with at least one longer implant
- . Fully edentulous cases with at least one 4 mm Short Implant in combination with 2 longer implants in the anterior region and at least four total implants
- Delayed loading .

Straumann® 4 mm Short Implants
510(k) Summary
Survival rates were at least 90%, with most failures attributed to early loss. This is comparable with data from 6 mm implants, in which the mean failure rate was 93.7%, also with most failures attributed to early loss. The available data indicates the subject dental implants may be used reliably and predictably with comparable survival and success rates to the primary predicate devices.
Post-market assessment via complaint trends and vigilance reporting data reflected 42,760 sales of 4.1 mm diameter x 4 mm length implants and 12,119 sales of 4.8 mm diameter x 4 mm length implants from September 2013 to September 2020. The overall complaint rate was 4.20% to 4.47%, with 3.41% to 3.84% of cases due to early loss. This is comparable with data from the primary predicate (implants with the same diameters but with 6 mm length), in which the overall complaint rate ranged from 3.00% to 4.07%, with early loss accounting for 2.27% to 2.57% of cases.
The results being presented in this premarket notification meet the definition of valid scientific data as defined in 21 CFR 860.7. The results are being presented in accordance with the guidance document "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff – Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implant and Endosseous Dental Abutments".
The clinical data suggest performance of the Straumann® 4 mm Short Implants is equivalent to the primary predicate device if used according to the indications for use.
Conclusion 5.9
The documentation submitted in this premarket notification demonstrates the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the primary predicate and reference devices.
