Intended Use

Straumann® Variobase® Abutments: The Straumann® Variobase® abutments are prosthetic components placed onto Straumann dental implants to provide support for customized prosthetic restorations. Straumann® Variobase® abutments are indicated for screw retained single tooth or cement-retained single tooth and bridge restorations. A temporary restoration can be used prior to the insertion of the final components to maintain, stabilize, and form the soft tissue during the healing phase. Temporary restorations are indicated to be placed out of occlusion. Final abutments and restorations may be placed into occlusion when the implant is fully osseointegrated. All digitally designed copings and/or crowns for use with the Straumann® Variobase® Abutment system are intended to be sent to Straumann for manufacturing by a validated milling center. Straumann® n!ce® Zirconia discs: Once finalized into a suitable design: n!ce® Zirconia LT and n!ce® Zirconia HT restorations are indicated for inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns, and bridges up to full arch. n!ce® Zirconia XT restorations are indicated for inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns, and bridges up to 3 units.

Device Story

System comprises two-piece abutments (Variobase base + milled ceramic coping) and zirconia milling discs. Variobase base connects to Straumann dental implants; ceramic top half is CAD/CAM designed and milled from n!ce Zirconia discs. Workflow: clinician performs digital design (CARES Visual software), sends data to validated milling center for fabrication. Final prosthesis is bonded to Variobase base. Used in dental clinics; operated by dental professionals. Provides structural support for prosthetic restorations; restores function and aesthetics for patients with missing teeth. Benefits include customized fit and material properties of zirconia.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Dynamic fatigue and static strength testing performed per ISO 14801 and FDA guidance. Biocompatibility confirmed via chemical characterization and in-vitro cytotoxicity testing per ISO 10993-5, 10993-12, and 10993-18. No clinical data presented.

Technological Characteristics

Two-piece abutment system. Base: Titanium (identical to predicate). Coping: Zirconia (ZrO2) discs (LT, HT, XT grades). Materials comply with ISO 6872. Flexural strength: ≥800 MPa (LT/HT), ≥500 MPa (XT). Manufacturing: CAD/CAM milling at validated centers. Sterilization: Validated per ISO 17665-1/2.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring dental prosthetic restorations (inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns, bridges) supported by Straumann dental implants or natural teeth. Temporary restorations are for soft tissue management during healing. Contraindicated for use in occlusion during the temporary healing phase.

The table will likely compare the n!ce Zirconia discs to other reference devices. {11}------------------------------------------------ ## Straumann® Variobase® Abutments and Straumann® n!ce® Zirconia discs 510(k) Summary ## Performance Testing #### Straumann® Variobase® Abutments Dynamic fatique and static strength tests were conducted according to ISO 14801 and 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 demonstrated the two-piece Straumann Variobase Abutments with Straumann n!ce Zirconia are equivalent to the primary predicate and reference devices. The material of the bottom half of the Variobase Abutments is identical to the primary predicate device, therefore, no new issues regarding biocompatibility were raised. The top half of the twopiece abutment, the ceramic component milled from Straumann n!ce Zirconia (ZrO2), differs only in the chemical composition, therefore, biocompatibility was confirmed with chemical characterization and in-vitro cytotoxicity according to ISO 10993-12, and 10993-18. The sterilization process for the subject devices as recommended in the labeling was validated according to ISO 17665-1, ISO 17665-2, and applicable recommendations in the FDA guidance document "Reprocessing Medical Devices in Health Care Settings: Validation Methods and Labeling, issued on March 17, 2015". #### Straumann® n!ce® Zirconia discs The Straumann n!ce Zirconia discs are subject to ISO 6872, Dentistry - Ceramic materials. According to ISO 6872 dental ceramics are classified according to their recommended clinical indication and their mechanical properties. The requirements listed apply as per ISO 6872: Uniformity, freedom from extraneous materials, radioactivity, flexural strength, chemical solubility, CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) and shrinkage factor. The Straumann n!ce Zirconia (ZrQ2) discs are similar to the reference devices cleared in K072569 and K170050, therefore, no new issues regarding biocompatibility were raised. The ceramic component milled from Straumann n!ce Zirconia (ZrO2) discs were evaluated for chemical characterization and in-vitro cytotoxicity according to ISO 10993-5, . 10993-12 and 10993-18. #### Conclusion The conclusion drawn from the nonclinical tests demonstrates that the subject devices in 510(k) submission K222836, the Straumann Variobase Abutments and Straumann n!ce Zirconia discs, {12}------------------------------------------------ ## Straumann® Variobase® Abutments and Straumann® n!ce® Zirconia discs ## 510(k) Summary are as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed primary predicate device and reference devices cleared under K120822, K190082, K170356, 200586, K170050, and K072569. The documentation submitted in this premarket notification demonstrates the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the primary predicate and reference devices.
