Intended Use
Straumann® Anatomic Healing Abutments are indicated to be placed in partially edentulous patients after implant placement. The healing components protect the inner configuration of the implant and form, maintain and stabilize the soft tissue during the healing process. Healing components have a maximum duration of usage of 180 days.
Device Description
The Straumann Anatomic Healing Abutments XC (referred to as the AHAs) are intended for use with the Straumann Dental Implant System (SDIS). The healing components protect the inner configuration of the implant and form, maintain, and stabilize the soft tissue during the osseointegration phase of Straumann endosseous dental implants to be rehabilitated using the delayed loading technique. The AHA are to be used during the implant placement surgery or in the reopening surgery (second surgical phase) and are for temporary use up to 180 days. The AHAs are to be placed out of occlusion. The healing abutments do not support a prosthetic restoration. The AHAs are composed of two united parts: a body that allows for customization and includes a through hole for fixation screw access, and a basal screw that cannot be altered. The Anatomic Healing Abutments are intended to be customized using only hand milling instruments manually controlled by dental professionals. To protect the consistent emergence profile for final abutment, a maximum 3mm height can be modified down to the occlusal surface. To preserve the scanning function of AHA, a 4.7mm circular area around the central axis of the screw channel cannot be modified. The body is milled from polyetheretherketone (PEEK Classix). The basal screws are existing basal screws manufactured from Titanium-Aluminum-Niobium (TAN) alloy previously cleared as part of the Straumann BLX system in K173961. The AHA are designed for connection to BLC and BLX implants of the Straumann Dental Implant System (K173961, K181703, K191256, K210855, K212533, K230108, and K234049). The AHA are available in diameters of Ø3.8 mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm, and 6.5mm. They are available in 4 shapes designed according to specific areas of the dentition including S, S1, M, and XL, however, they are not limited to use exclusively in these positions. The AHA are offered in regular base (RB) and wide base (WB) configurations consistent with the Straumann BLX and BLC prosthetic platform offerings. The AHAs may also be used in intraoral scanning procedures of single-unit restorations to represent the position, axis, and orientation of the dental implant placed in the patient's jaw relative to the surrounding dentition. A scanbody feature extends from the occlusal surface of the AHA.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties, biocompatibility, and mechanical performance of the healing abutments, with no mention of AI or ML for analysis, decision support, or image processing. The scanning function mentioned is for representing the implant position, not for AI/ML analysis.

No.
The device's intended use is to protect the implant, promote soft tissue healing, and act as a temporary component during the osseointegration phase of dental implants. It does not exert a therapeutic effect on a medical condition or disease.

No

The device is a healing abutment used to protect dental implants and shape soft tissue during the healing process, and it can also be used in intraoral scanning procedures. It is not used to diagnose a medical condition or disease.

No

The device is a physical healing abutment made of PEEK and TAN, intended for surgical placement and temporary use. While it has a scanbody feature and is compatible with intraoral scanning software, its primary function is mechanical and biological, not purely software-based.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The Straumann Anatomic Healing Abutments are physical components placed in the patient's mouth to aid in the healing process after dental implant placement. They are not used to analyze biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a physical function within the patient's body (protecting the implant, forming and stabilizing soft tissue).
  • Device Description: The description details the materials and physical design of the abutments, not a diagnostic test or analysis method.

Therefore, the Straumann Anatomic Healing Abutments fall under the category of a medical device, specifically a dental device, rather than an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

  • Performance Testing Sterilization Validation and Shelf Life: The subject devices are gamma irradiated, like the predicate devices in K130808. The AHA have been assessed for their relative challenge to the sterilization process by comparison to similar devices previously validated to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-9, utilizing VDmax25 in accordance with ISO 11137-1:2006. The standard dose of radiation used for routine irradiation sterilization is 25 kilogray. This dose has been validated in accordance with ISO 11137-1: 2006, utilizing VDmax25 in accordance with ISO 11137-2: 2013, to achieve a sterility assurance level of 10-6. If the AHA is customized, the device must be steam sterilized prior to intra-oral use. A validation of the labeled steam sterilization cycle using the half cycle validation approach outlined in ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1: 2006/(R)2013, Annex D was performed with a subject device. All test method acceptance criteria were met. The subject AHAs are labeled with a 5-year shelf-life like the previously cleared Straumann healing abutments (K130808). The packaging materials, configuration, and sterilization method for the AHA are the same as the Straumann healing abutments.
  • Biocompatibility Testing: Biological assessment has been performed according to ISO 10993-1 and FDA Guidance document Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1. The subject AHA devices are manufactured from PEEK Classix conforming to ASTM F2026. The AHA share the same nature of body contact, contact duration, device material and manufacturing process as the reference protective caps of the Straumann Magellan Abutment System (K133421). Cytotoxicity and chemical extraction tests were performed. No cytotoxic reaction was detected. No extractable substances were detected in the chemical analysis above the analytical evaluation threshold (AET). The basal screws of the subject AHA are manufactured from Titanium-aluminum-niobium alloy (TAN) conforming to ISO 5832-11. The basal screws of the subject AHA share the same nature of body contact, contact duration, material formulation, and sterilization methods as the basal screws of the primary predicate Straumann healing abutments customizable (K130808) and therefore, no new testing has been performed on these devices.
  • Electromagnetic Compatibility: No new materials or worst-case constructs were introduced compared to the Straumann portfolio MR tested in accordance with FDA's guidance testing and labeling medical devices for safety in the magnetic resonance (MR) environment and cleared under K190662.
  • Performance Testing - Bench: Torque testing was performed to demonstrate the AHA withstands repeated insertion and removal torques without damage.
  • Software Testing: A scan verification test and software integration were performed to demonstrate the subject AHAs can be scanned with an intraoral scanner and are suitable to work with CARES Visual software.

Performance Testing Sterilization Validation and Shelf Life

The subject devices will be gamma irradiated. like the predicate devices in K130808. The AHA have been assessed for their relative challenge to the sterilization process by comparison to similar devices previously validated to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-9, utilizing VDmax25 in accordance with ISO 11137-1:2006. The standard dose of radiation used for routine irradiation sterilization is 25 kilogray. This dose has been validated in accordance with ISO 11137-1: 2006, utilizing VDmax25 in accordance with ISO 11137-2: 2013, to achieve a sterility assurance level of 10-6.

If the AHA is customized, the device must be steam sterilized prior to intra-oral use. A validation of the labeled steam sterilization cycle using the half cycle validation approach outlined in ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1: 2006/(R)2013, Annex D was performed with a subject device. All test method acceptance criteria were met.

The subject AHAs are labeled with a 5-year shelf-life like the previously cleared Straumann healing abutments (K130808). The packaging materials, configuration, and sterilization method for the AHA are the same as the Straumann healing abutments. Also, the subject AHA do not represent a new worst case in terms of dimension and weight, therefore, the packaging stability study for the Straumann healing abutments is adopted to support the subject AHA.

The subject devices are implants and will not be marketed as non-pyrogenic. The method used to make the determination that the devices meet pyrogen limit specifications is the Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) test. The testing limit is 20 endotoxin units (EU)/device. The testing limit is consistent with the recommendation identified in the FDA Guidance Submission and review of sterility information in premarket notification (510(k)) submissions for devices labeled as sterile.

Biocompatibility Testing

Biological assessment has been performed according to ISO 10993-1 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, (June 16, 2016). The subject AHA devices are manufactured from PEEK Classix conforming to ASTM F2026. The AHA share the same nature of body contact, contact duration, device material and manufacturing process as the reference protective caps of the Straumann Magellan Abutment System (K133421). Unlike the reference protective caps, the subject AHAs will be sterile packaged, and gamma irradiated. Cytotoxicity and chemical extraction tests were performed. No cytotoxic reaction was detected. No extractable substances were detected in the chemical analysis above the analytical evaluation threshold (AET). The basal screws of the subject AHA are manufactured from Titanium-aluminumniobium alloy (TAN) conforming to ISO 5832-11. The basal screws of the subject AHA share the same nature of body contact, contact duration, material formulation, and sterilization methods as the basal screws of the primary predicate Straumann healing

abutments customizable (K130808) and therefore, no new testing has been performed on these devices.

Electromagnetic Compatibility

No new materials or worst-case constructs were introduced compared to the Straumann portfolio MR tested in accordance with FDA's quidance testing and labeling medical devices for safety in the magnetic resonance (MR) environment and cleared under K190662.

Performance Testing - Bench

The physician will insert the AHA during the implant placement surgery or in the reopening surgery (second surgical phase) and remove the AHA upon placement of a final abutment and restoration. Therefore, torque testing was performed to demonstrate the AHA withstands repeated insertion and removal torques without damage.

Software Testing

A scan verification test and software integration were performed to demonstrate the subject AHAs can be scanned with an intraoral scanner and are suitable to work with CARES Visual software.

Conclusion

The documentation submitted in this premarket notification demonstrates the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the primary predicate and reference devices.
