This is a dental amalgam for the filling of tooth cavities of Black's Classes I and II.
Bestaloy is used as a filling material for restoring function to teeth that have lost portions to caries.
The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a dental amalgam called "Bestaloy." It states that Bestaloy has undergone safety, performance, and product validations and that it has the same device characteristics as its predicate device (LUXALLOY™, DEGUSSA AG K902249). However, it does not provide specific details about acceptance criteria or a study proving that the device meets those criteria with quantitative performance metrics.
Therefore, I cannot extract the detailed information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria, reported performance, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, or MRMC studies. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting a performance study with detailed quantitative results.
Here's what can be inferred from the provided text, but it falls short of your specific requirements:
-
Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: Not available in the provided text. The submission states, "Bestaloy has been subjected to extensive safety, performance, and product validations prior to release. Safety tests have been performed to ensure the devices comply to applicable industry and US requiations." However, it does not list specific criteria or quantitative performance results.
-
Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance: Not mentioned in the provided text.
-
Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications: Not mentioned in the provided text.
-
Adjudication Method for the Test Set: Not mentioned in the provided text.
-
If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, and the effect size: Not mentioned in the provided text. This type of study is generally not typical for a dental amalgam 510(k) submission, which focuses on material equivalence.
-
If a Standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable, as this is a dental material, not an algorithm.
-
The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not mentioned in the provided text. The submission relies on "device characteristics" being the same as the predicate.
-
The Sample Size for the Training Set: Not mentioned in the provided text. (Training sets are typically for AI/ML models, which this device is not).
-
How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established: Not applicable as this is a dental material.
Summary of what is available from the text:
- Device Name: Bestaloy
- Predicate Device: LUXALLOY™, DEGUSSA AG K902249 (K902249)
- Basis for Equivalence: "Bestaloy has the same device characteristics as the predicate device. Material, design and use concept is similar."
- Testing Conducted: "extensive safety, performance, and product validations" and "Safety tests have been performed to ensure the devices comply to applicable industry and US requiations."
- Conclusion: The manufacturer concludes that Bestaloy is "safe and effective and substantially equivalent to predicate devices."
The document is a 510(k) clearance letter, which confirms that the FDA found the device substantially equivalent to a predicate. It does not contain the detailed performance study results that would be part of a submission to demonstrate performance against specific acceptance criteria.

Dear Mr. Mouser:
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.
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.

Page 2 - Mr. Mouser
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 (OS) 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).
