Device Description

Not Found

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text is a 510(k) clearance letter for a dental device (Glass Post) and does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving device performance using AI. The document confirms that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices, but it does not detail any performance studies, acceptance criteria, or AI-related evaluations. It is a regulatory approval, not a technical performance report.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the input text.
