Nobel Biocare's Procera® Implant Bridge is a bridge framework that attaches to implants or abutments. The Procera® Implant Bridge framework is intended to be finished into a dental prosthesis using standard laboratory dental materials such as resin composite or porcelain veneer.
Procera® Implant Bridges are made individually following instructions and models specific to each patient. The Procera® Implant Bridge is made entirely of titanium.
The Procera® Implant Bridge implant and abutment interfaces are modeled after similar interfaces currently available for the predicate devices listed.
This document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Procera® Implant Bridge, a dental bridge framework. However, the provided text does not contain acceptance criteria for device performance, nor does it detail any specific studies (e.g., clinical trials or performance tests with statistical results) that directly prove the device meets such criteria.
The document primarily focuses on:
- Device Description: What the device is and how it's made (titanium, custom-made).
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: What the device is for (restoring chewing function in partially or totally edentulous jaws) and compatible implant systems.
- Substantial Equivalence: Comparing the device to legally marketed predicate devices.
- Regulatory Information: Classification, product code, and relevant regulations.
Here's an analysis based on the provided text for the requested information, highlighting what is not present:
1. Table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance
Not present in the document. The submission is for substantial equivalence to predicates, implying that if it's materially similar to already approved devices, it's considered safe and effective. There are no specific performance metrics or acceptance criteria listed for the Procera® Implant Bridge itself, nor are there reported results of performance tests against such criteria.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
Not applicable. No specific test set or study data are mentioned for this device. The submission relies on substantial equivalence.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
Not applicable. No ground truth establishment is described as there's no performance study detailed.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
Not applicable. No test set or related adjudication process is described.
5. 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
Not applicable. This device is a dental implant component, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or imaging device. Therefore, MRMC studies or AI improvement metrics are irrelevant here.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This device is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
Not applicable. No ground truth data is mentioned for this 510(k) submission.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. As the device is not an AI/ML algorithm or software, there is no training set in the context of data-driven models.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable. As there is no training set, there's no ground truth establishment for it.
Summary of what the document states about "Performance Standards":
The document mentions in section 1.5 "Performance Standards": "The Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-Form Endosseous Dental Implants and Abutments; Draft Guidance for Industry and FDA was identified as applicable to this submission." This indicates that the device operates under a framework of "Special Controls," which are regulatory measures beyond general controls to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. However, the document does not elaborate on what specific performance criteria from this guidance the device was tested against or the results of such testing. It merely states that the guidance was identified as applicable.
§ 872.3630 Endosseous dental implant abutment.
(a)
Identification. An endosseous dental implant abutment is a premanufactured prosthetic component directly connected to the endosseous dental implant and is intended for use as an aid in prosthetic rehabilitation.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-Form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments” will serve as the special control. (See § 872.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.)
