The Silver Care Antibacterial Toothbrush is intended for over-the-counter use as a toothbrush. The antibacterial agent maintains the cleanliness of the brush by preventing the growth of bacteria on and between the filaments after use. The Silver Care is effective against E. coll (ATCC 25922), Klebsiella pneumoniae (ATCC 13388), Streptococcus mutans (ATCC 35668), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853) at 24 hours of exposure under moist conditions.
Not Found
The provided document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the Silver Care Antibacterial Toothbrush. It does not contain the detailed study information required to answer the prompt.
Specifically, the document:
- Identifies the device, its regulation number, and regulatory class.
- States the device's indications for use, including claims about its antibacterial effectiveness against specific bacteria at 24 hours of exposure under moist conditions.
- Confirms a substantial equivalence determination.
However, it does not include:
- A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance: The letter mentions antibacterial effectiveness but doesn't provide specific quantitative targets or reported results from a study in a tabular format.
- Sample size used for the test set and data provenance: No information about the sample size (number of toothbrushes, bacterial replicates, etc.) or where the data came from.
- Number of experts and their qualifications for ground truth: This information is irrelevant for a device like a toothbrush where performance is measured by laboratory tests, not expert interpretation of data.
- Adjudication method: Not applicable for this type of device testing.
- Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study: Not applicable, as this device does not involve human readers interpreting medical images/data.
- Standalone performance: While the antibacterial claims are inherently standalone performance, no specific study details are provided.
- Type of ground truth: The "ground truth" for the antibacterial claim would be the measured bacterial reduction, but the detailed methodology is missing.
- Sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as this is a physical device tested in a lab, not an AI/ML model for which training data would be relevant.
- How ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
To provide the requested information, a different document, such as the actual testing report submitted to the FDA, would be necessary.

Dear Ms. Lacourt:
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. 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.
