What is it indicated for?

Straumann® dental implants are indicated for the functional and esthetic oral rehabilitation of the upper or lower jaw of edentulous or partially edentulous patients. They can be used for immediate, early or late implantation following the extraction or loss of natural teeth. The implants can be placed with immediate function for single-tooth and/or multiple-tooth restorations when good primary stability is achieved and with appropriate occlusal loading to restore chewing function.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
