Indications for Use
Straumann Narrow Neck implants are intended for single-stage or two-stage surqical placement in the maxillary and/or mandibular arches to provide support for prosthetic restorations in edentulous or partially edentulous patients. Straumann Narrow Neck implants are intended for immediate function on single tooth and/or multiple tooth applications when good primary stability is achieved, with appropriate occlusal loading, in order to restore chewing function. Multiple tooth applications may be rigidly splinted. In the case of edentulous patients, four or more implants must be used in immediately loaded cases.
Device Story
Straumann Narrow Neck Implants are endosseous dental implants designed for surgical placement in maxillary or mandibular arches; provide support for prosthetic restorations. Implants feature SLA or SLActive surfaces; identical design and dimensions to predicate Straumann implants. Used by dental surgeons in clinical settings to restore chewing function in edentulous or partially edentulous patients. Supports single or multiple tooth applications; allows immediate function when primary stability is achieved. Benefits patients by providing stable foundation for dental prosthetics.
Technological Characteristics
Endosseous dental implants; SLA or SLActive surface treatment; design and dimensions identical to predicate Straumann implants; 21 CFR 872.3640; Class II.
Indications for Use
Indicated for edentulous or partially edentulous patients requiring prosthetic restoration support in maxillary or mandibular arches; supports single or multiple tooth applications; allows immediate function if primary stability and appropriate occlusal loading are achieved; requires minimum of four implants for immediate loading in edentulous patients.
Regulatory Classification
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.
Special Controls
*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.
