AI/ML Overview

This 510(k) submission for the KaVo Everest® ZS-Blank does not include a study or acceptance criteria related to a performance study of the device.

Instead, the submission states:

Performance Data: "None required. The claim of substantial equivalence is based on comparisons of formulations and intended uses of the KaVo devices to legally marketed predicates and to the IDENTIFICATION of porcelain powders in 21 CFR 872.6660."

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and performance data from a study for this specific device. The device's approval was based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, focusing on formulation and intended use, rather than a clinical performance study with specific metrics.
