Device Description

Not Found

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA regarding the "Fixobridge 3-Cement" device. It primarily discusses the substantial equivalence of this dental cement to legally marketed predicate devices and does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets specific performance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information. The document focuses on regulatory approval based on equivalence, not on specific performance studies with acceptance criteria.

Dear Mr. Maeser:

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 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.
