This device is a dental operating system comprising a patient chair, dentist's element, utility center, and floor box, intended to supply power and serve as a base for dental devices and accessories in a dental clinic/office environment.
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
The provided 510(k) summary focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Sirona C8+ Dental Operative unit - K983242) rather than defining explicit, quantitative acceptance criteria for de novo performance. The acceptance criteria are implicitly met by demonstrating conformance to relevant standards and direct equivalence to the predicate.
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied by Substantial Equivalence and Standards Conformance) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Safety: Device electrical safety, mechanical integrity, and biocompatibility. | Bench testing against various standards: |
| - Electrical Safety: Comply with IEC 60601-1 / UL 60601-1 and CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 601.1 M90 for electrical medical equipment. | - Independent laboratory testing by Intertek Testing confirmed conformity with UL 60601-1 and CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 601.1 M90. |
| - Mechanical Safety/Functional Standards: Comply with ISO 7494-1:1996 (Dentistry - Dental units - Part 1: General requirements and test methods) and ISO 7494-2:2003 (Dentistry - Dental units - Part 2: Water and air supply). | - Bench testing against local GB standards (GB9706.1-1995 and Y Y/T1043-2004) which are near equivalent to ISO 7494-2:2003 and ISO 7494-1:1996. Additional testing performed where local standards were not equivalent. |
| - Compatibility with Handpieces: Comply with ISO 9168:1991 (Dental handpieces - Coupling dimensions). | - Tested against ISO 9168:1991 and found to be in compliance. Device uses industry-standard 4-Hole handpiece tubings. |
| - Biocompatibility (Patient/Operator Contact Surfaces): Comply with ISO 7405:1997 (Dentistry - Evaluation of biocompatibility of medical and dental devices). | - Patient and operator contact surfaces tested and found to be in compliance with ISO 7405:1997. Device composed of materials with a long history of use. |
| Effectiveness/Performance: Ability to supply power and act as a base for dental devices and accessories, and to position the patient. | - Device description and comparison table assert "Equivalent" performance in all functional aspects (control of air and water, installation, components, accessories, power/utility supply, water system, cleaning system, activation, place of use, intended users) to the predicate Sirona C8. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
- Sample Size for Test Set: The submission states that "Bench testing has been performed on a sample that is in all respects the same as the device to be marketed." This indicates a single device sample (or a very small number representing the manufactured article) was used for physical bench testing.
- Data Provenance: The bench testing was performed against local GB standards in China. Additional independent laboratory testing was performed by Intertek Testing of Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. This is prospective testing of the device itself.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts:
- This submission does not involve clinical data or expert evaluations for establishing ground truth in the context of image interpretation or diagnostic performance. Instead, ground truth is established by the compliance of the device with recognized international and national standards as assessed by engineering and testing professionals at the designated testing laboratories. Therefore, the "experts" are the qualified personnel at the testing facilities (e.g., Intertek Testing) who conducted the specified tests and verified compliance. Their specific qualifications are not detailed beyond their affiliation with the testing labs.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
- Not applicable. The testing described is objective bench testing against engineering standards, not subjective evaluation requiring adjudication among multiple human assessments.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:
- No, a MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic imaging devices or AI-assisted devices that impact human clinical decision-making. This device is a physical dental operative unit.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study:
- Not applicable. This device is a physical medical device, not an algorithm or software-only device. Its performance is inherent in its physical and electrical characteristics conforming to safety and performance standards.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used:
- The "ground truth" used for this submission is conformance to established engineering and safety standards (e.g., ISO, UL, CSA, GB standards), combined with direct comparison of technological characteristics to a legally marketed predicate device.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set:
- Not applicable. This device does not involve machine learning or AI, and therefore does not have a "training set."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
- Not applicable, as there is no training set.

the dental clinic/office environment. The units are for use only by trained dentists, dental hygienists, dental technicians and dental assistants.
Technological Characteristics
The general components, design, characteristics and mode of operation of the Flight A-Series Dental Operative Unit is substantially equivalent to Sirona C8 Dental Operative Unit. Both are AC powered operative units with accessories that are intended to supply power to and serve as a base for dental devices and accessories. Both systems include the doctor's element, patient chair, floor box and utility center and may include optional cuspidors, operating lights and assistants elements.
Performance Data
Bench testing has been performed on a sample that is in all respects the same as the device to be marketed. Testing was performed against local GB standards in China including GB9706.1-1995 and Y Y/T1043-2004 which are near equivalent to the recognized consensus standards ISO 7494-2:2003 and ISO 7494-1:1996. In any case in which the local standard was not equivalent to the recognized Consensus standard, additional testing has been performed in accordance with the recognized consensus standards.
Further independent laboratory testing was performed by Intertek Testing of Mississauga, Ontario Canada to confirm conformity UI. 60601-1 and CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 601.58aagage, with the electrical safety portions of ISO 7494-1:1996. In any case in which the local standard was not equivalent to the recognized Consensus standard, additional testing has been performed in accordance with the recognized consensus standard.
The equipment has also been tested against ISO 9168:1991, and found to be in compliance with the standard. The patient and operator contact surfaces have been tested and found to be in compliance with ISO 7405:1997. The device is composed of materials that have a long instory of use in the medical and dental community.
No deviations from the recognized standards were found except those noted in the table provided in section 9 of this submission. In any case of deviation from the recognized standard alternate methods of meeting safety and effectiveness requirements were implemented.
The conclusions drawn from the bench testing are that the device is as safe and as effective as the predicate device. Furthermore, the device performs its intended tasks as well as the legally marketed predicate device and complies with the recognized standards.
Substantial Equivalence Conclusions
In all important respects the Flight dental Systems A-Series Dental Operative Units are substantially equivalent to the Sirona Dental Systems C8 (K983242). This conclusion is ased upon indications for use, technical characteristics, device users and features comparison. Any
