Intended Use

The Pre-Cemented Orthodontic Bracket System is indicated for use in bonding orthodontic appliances for orthodontic treatment.

Device Description

The Pre-Cemented Orthodontic Bracket System consists of precemented orthodontic brackets and an optional bonding tray. The orthodontic brackets and component used in the application are currently marketed medical devices.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a "Pre-Cemented Orthodontic Bracket System." However, it is not a study that proves the device meets acceptance criteria.

The document is a notification from the FDA confirming that the agency has reviewed the submission and determined the device to be "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices. This means that based on the provided information, the FDA believes the new device has the same intended use and technological characteristics as a device already on the market, and therefore does not require a premarket approval application (PMA).

The document does NOT contain:

  • Acceptance criteria for performance.
  • Results from any studies (clinical or bench) comparing the device's performance against specific metrics.
  • Information about sample sizes, data provenance, expert ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or training set details.

The 510(k) summary explicitly states: "All of the components found in the Pre-Cemented Orthodontic Bracket System are legally marketed devices or are found in legally marketed devices. As there are no changes in formulation from the predicate devices, we believe that additional biocompatibility testing is not required." This suggests that the substantial equivalence argument relies on the existing safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices and their components, rather than new, independent performance testing of the combined system against defined acceptance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot populate the requested table and information as the provided text does not contain the necessary details about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets them.

Dear Dr. Primus:

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. 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 (QS) 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 (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
