AIGIS-A is an inlay, onlay, crown and bridge alloy. This device is dependable 48% gold alloy with a high gold appearance. AIGIS-A is excellent for inlays, threequarter crowns, long and short-span bridges.
The provided document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a dental casting alloy named AIGIS-A. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (JENSEN'S JMC) rather than presenting a study with specific acceptance criteria related to AI or algorithmic performance. Therefore, many of the requested categories (e.g., sample size for test set, number of experts, MRMC study, training set details) are not applicable to this type of submission.
Here's a breakdown based on the information available:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (AIGIS-A vs. JENSEN'S JMC)
The acceptance criteria for this device are implicitly tied to demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate device, JENSEN'S JMC, by showing comparable composition and physical/mechanical properties, and suitability for the same indications for use.
| Acceptance Criteria Category | Predicate Device (JMC) Reported Performance | New Device (AIGIS-A) Reported Performance | Device Meets Criteria? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Composition (Weight %) | Not explicitly detailed in the table, but the document states "The main elements and their concentration are almost identical." | Not explicitly detailed in the table, but the document states "The main elements and their concentration are almost identical." | Yes (Implied) |
| Melting Point Range (°F) | 1,645-1,810 | 1,737-1,795 | Yes (Comparable Range) |
| Hardness (Vickers) | 170 | 171 | Yes (Very Similar) |
| Yield Strength (MPa) | 324 | 245 | Yes (Within acceptable range for equivalence, though AIGIS-A is lower) |
| Elongation (%) | 22 | 24 | Yes (Similar) |
| Density (g/cm³) | 12.9 | 13.1 | Yes (Very Similar) |
| Intended Use | Inlay, onlay, crown and bridge alloy | Inlay / Onlays, Crowns, Short span bridges, Long span bridges, Removable partials | Yes (Same/similar indications) |
| Biological Compatibility | Implied as compatible through long-term market presence | Assumed very similar due to similar composition, per discussion. | Yes (Implied) |
Study Information:
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- N/A. This submission is for a material (dental casting alloy), not an AI/algorithm-driven device. Performance is demonstrated through material characterization tests (as per ANSI/ADA 5 and ISO 9693), not a clinical 'test set' in the context of AI. The data provenance would be from laboratory testing; specific details are not provided beyond the standards referenced.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience):
- N/A. Ground truth for material properties is established through standardized laboratory testing, not expert consensus on interpretations.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- N/A. Adjudication methods are not relevant for material property testing.
-
If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:
- N/A. This is not an AI-powered device.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- N/A. This is not an AI-powered device.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
- The "ground truth" for this device constitutes the established quantitative measurements of its physical and mechanical properties, obtained through standardized test methods (ANSI/ADA 5 and ISO 9693).
-
The sample size for the training set:
- N/A. This is not an AI-powered device.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- N/A. This is not an AI-powered device.
Summary of Acceptance:
The device, AIGIS-A, met the acceptance criteria by demonstrating substantial equivalence in composition, physical properties (melting point, hardness, elongation, density), and intended use to the legally marketed predicate device, JENSEN'S JMC. The minor differences in properties, such as a slightly lower yield strength, were deemed not to affect safety or effectiveness, as stated in the conclusion: "AIGIS-A is substantially equivalent to JENSEN'S JMC and the minor differences between them do not affect safety or effectiveness."

Comparison of physical and mechanical properties:
| Alloy | Melting Point Range (°F) | Hardness (Vickers) | Yield Strength (MPa) | Elongation (%) | Density (g/cm3) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| JMC | 1,645-1,810 | 170 | 324 | 22 | 12.9 |

Discu:ssion:
Since the composition of the legally marketed alloy and the new device is very similar, it may be assumed that the biological compatibility of the alloys is also very similar.
Conclusion:
The main elements and their concentration are almost identical. AIGIS-A is an inlay, onlay, crown and bridge alloy. This device is dependable 48% gold alloy with a high gold appearance. AIGIS-A is excellent for inlays, threequarter crowns, long and short-span bridges. AIGIS-A is substantially equivalent to JENSEN'S JMC and the minor differences between them do not affect safety or effectiveness.

Dear Mr. Chang
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of f the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition. FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
