The Cowell Implant System is indicated for use in partially or fully edentulous mandibles and maxillae, in support of single or multiple-unit restorations including; cemented retained, or overdenture restorations, and terminal or intermediate abutment support for fixed bridgework. This system is not intended for immediate loading.
The implants with diameters larger than 5.0mm are intended to be surgically placed in the maxillary or mandibular molar areas for the purpose of providing prosthetic support for dental restorations (Crown, bridges, and overdentures) in partially or fully edentulous individuals. These implants are intended to be used where smaller implants have failed.
The Cowell Implant System is a dental implant made of titanium metal intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper and / or lower jaw arches. This system is similar to other commercially available products based on the intended use, the technology used, the claims, the material composition employed and performance characteristics.
The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the Cowell Implant System, a dental implant. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria through a study with performance metrics.
Therefore, the requested information about acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and ground truth establishment cannot be extracted from the provided text.
The document states:
- "The Cowell Implant System is similar to other commercially available products based on the intended use, the technology used, the claims, the material composition employed and performance characteristics."
- "The Cowell Implant systems are similar in fundamental scientific technology to the predicate devices (K090825, K053353) in that they all have been designed, manufactured and tested in compliance with FDA's Class II special controls guidance document root-form endosseous dental implants and endosseous dental implant abutment."
- "concludes that the ball abutment is safe and effective and substantially equivalent to predicate devices as described herein."
This indicates that the device was approved based on its similarity to existing, approved devices and compliance with regulatory guidelines, rather than a standalone performance study with quantifiable acceptance criteria.

Predicate Devices
· :
The subject device is substantially equivalent to the following predicate devices:
- SQ IS System (K090825) manufactured by Neobiotech Co., Ltd. ●
- Rescue Implant System (K053353) manufactured by MegaGen Co., Ltd. ●
Comparison to Predicate Devices
The Cowell Implant system has a substantially equivalent intended use as the identified predicates (K090825, K053353). This dental implant system made of pure titanium and the surface has been treated with ASD. It is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches. The system is similar to other commercially available products based on the intended use, the technology used, the claims, the material composition employed and performance characteristics.
The Cowell Implant systems are similar in fundamental scientific technology to the predicate devices (K090825, K053353) in that they all have been designed, manufactured and tested in compliance with FDA 's Class II special controls guidance document root-form endosseous dental implants and endosseous dental implant abutment. The subject and predicate devices are similar in size, materials, surface treatment, and are sterilized via gamma irradiation. The Cowell Implant system and the predicates include instruments to assist with the implant procedure.
Conclusions
In accordance with the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 CFR Part 807, and based on the information provided in this premarket notification SQ IS system (K090825) and Rescue Implant system (K053353) concludes that the ball abutment is safe and effective and substantially equivalent to predicate devices as described herein.

Dear Ms. Bang:
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 approvál 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.

§ 872.3640 Endosseous dental implant.
(a)
Identification. An endosseous dental implant is a prescription device made of a material such as titanium or titanium alloy that is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore a patient's chewing function.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a root-form endosseous dental implant. The root-form endosseous dental implant is characterized by four geometrically distinct types: Basket, screw, solid cylinder, and hollow cylinder. 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.)(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a blade-form endosseous dental implant. The special controls for this device are:(i) The design characteristics of the device must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use;
(ii) Mechanical performance (fatigue) testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate maximum load (endurance limit) when the device is subjected to compressive and shear loads;
(iii) Corrosion testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate corrosion potential of each metal or alloy, couple potential for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system, and corrosion rate for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system;
(iv) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible;
(v) Sterility testing must demonstrate the sterility of the device;
(vi) Performance testing to evaluate the compatibility of the device in a magnetic resonance (MR) environment;
(vii) Labeling must include a clear description of the technological features, how the device should be used in patients, detailed surgical protocol and restoration procedures, relevant precautions and warnings based on the clinical use of the device, and qualifications and training requirements for device users including technicians and clinicians;
(viii) Patient labeling must contain a description of how the device works, how the device is placed, how the patient needs to care for the implant, possible adverse events and how to report any complications; and
(ix) Documented clinical experience must demonstrate safe and effective use and capture any adverse events observed during clinical use.
