Intended Use
The Straumann® PURE Ceramic Implant (Monotype) is indicated for restoration in single tooth gaps and in an edentulous or partially edentulous jaw. The prosthetic restorations used are single crowns, fixed partial or full dentures, which are connected to the implants through the corresponding components. The ø3.3 mm reduced diameter implants are recommended for central and lateral incisors only.
Device Story
Straumann® PURE Ceramic Implants are endosseous dental implants made of 100% yttrium-stabilized zirconia (Y-TZP). The device features a monotype design with an integrated ceramic abutment and a ZLA (sand-blasted, large-grit, acid-etched) surface to promote osseointegration. Used by dental professionals in clinical settings to support single crowns, fixed partial, or full dentures. The implant is surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. The device is provided sterile via Ethylene Oxide (EO) sterilization. The clinician selects the appropriate diameter and length based on the patient's anatomical needs. The output is a stable, biocompatible foundation for prosthetic dental restorations, benefiting patients by restoring oral function and aesthetics.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Validation included sterilization per ISO 11135 (SAL 10-6), packaging integrity (ISTA 2A), shelf-life (ASTM F1980), and biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1). Mechanical testing (static, dynamic fatigue, torque) performed per ISO 14801:2007 confirmed performance consistency after hydrothermal aging. Surface chemistry analysis showed no significant differences between sterilization methods.
Technological Characteristics
Material: 100% yttrium-stabilized zirconia (Y-TZP). Surface: ZLA (sand-blasted, large-grit, acid-etched). Design: Cylindrical monotype with 1.8 mm machined neck. Dimensions: Apical diameters 3.3/4.1 mm; coronal diameters 3.5/4.8 mm; lengths 8-14 mm. Thread pitch: 0.8 mm. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (ISO 11135).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring dental restoration in single tooth gaps or edentulous/partially edentulous jaws. Reduced diameter (ø3.3 mm) implants restricted to central and lateral incisors.
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.

510(k) Summary
### 5.7 Performance Data
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
### Sterilization and Shelf-Life
A sterilization validation was performed per ISO 11135, Sterilization of healthcare products – Ethylene Oxide – Requirements for development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices, using the Half Cycle Overkill Approach. The validation demonstrates that the sterilization process and equipment is capable of reliably and consistently sterilizing the subject device to a minimum Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6.
A transportation study has been performed per ISTA 2A to demonstrate the integrity of the sterile barrier system considering the new sterilization process. The subject devices continue to meet product release requirements after being subjected to worst-case environmental and handling changes.
A packaging stability study was performed to demonstrate the integrity of the packaging system and the sterile barrier system after sterilization process via Ethylene Oxide,
handling, distribution, transport and storage up to the defined product shelf life. The subject devices continue to meet product release requirements after being subjected to worst-case environmental and handling changes.
Shelf-Life studies have been conducted in accordance with ASTM F1980.
### Biocompatibility Testing
The biological safety of the Straumann® PURE Ceramic Implants sterilized via Ethylene Oxide was re-evaluated and further biocompatibility testing was required according to ISO and FDA standard (FDA, 2016; ISO 10993-1, 2009). EO and ECH residues were not detected in the chemical analysis and no cytotoxicity was observed. Based on the test results the change in sterilization method did not affect the biological safety profile of the devices.
### Bench Testing
Mechanical testing (static, dynamic fatigue and torque) and surface chemistry analysis was performed to demonstrate the new sterilization method does not affect product performance. Static and dynamic fatigue strength testing was performed per ISO 14801:2007 and the FDA-Guidance to "Root-form endosseous dental implants Straumann USA, LLC November 14, 2017
{7}------------------------------------------------
### 510(k) Summary
and endosseous dental implant abutments." All mechanical testing performed demonstrated the new sterilization method does not affect the product performance after being subjected to hydrothermal aging. Cleanliness analysis demonstrated no significant difference in surface chemistry between H2O2 plasma (sterility method per predicate device) and EO sterilization.
### 5.8 Conclusion
The documentation submitted in this premarket notification demonstrates that the Straumann® PURE Ceramic Implants are substantially equivalent to the predicate device and do not pose new issues of safety and effectiveness.
