Device Description

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA for a dental hand instrument called “Meisinger Benex.” This type of documentation is for establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device and does not typically include detailed information about clinical studies with acceptance criteria, performance metrics, ground truth, or expert involvement in the way an AI/ML device submission would.

Therefore, the provided document does not contain the information requested in the prompt regarding acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert involvement, or ground truth for proving device performance.

This document confirms the device's classification, outlines general regulatory requirements, and states its intended use, but it doesn't present data from a clinical or performance study in the format requested.

Dear Mr. Miller:

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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification.
