Intended Use

The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are intended for use in dental procedures that contact pulp and periradicular tissues, as well as obturation and sealing of root canals.

Device Description

The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are designed and developed for dentists to use in dental procedures that contact with vital pulp tissue and periradicular tissue, as well as obturation and sealing of root canals. The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS can be used for dental procedures such as: pulp capping, cavity lining, base material in a cavity, pulpotomies, root-end filling, apexification, perforation repair, root resorption, and sealing/obturation. The dentist mixes the powder with the provided gel and places the mixed MTA2 material into the space created by the procedure. The procedure may be part of caries treatment, root canal treatment, or periapical surgery. The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are available in white or gray.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document primarily describes non-clinical performance (bench testing). There is no information provided about a "test set" in the context of human subjects or a clinical study. The data provenance is laboratory testing.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

Not applicable. This device's evaluation was based on non-clinical, bench testing against recognized standards (ADA 57, ISO 9917). There was no "test set" requiring expert ground truth in the traditional sense of diagnostic accuracy studies. The standards themselves serve as the 'ground truth' for performance.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable. Without a clinical test set or expert evaluation component, there is no adjudication method described.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This is not an AI/CAD device. It is a dental material.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This is not an AI/CAD device.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

The "ground truth" for this device's performance was established by adherence to recognized international and national standards for dental materials: ADA 57, ISO 6876, and ISO 9917. These standards define the acceptable physical, chemical, and biological properties for such materials.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device that requires a training set.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device.

TRADE OR PROPRIETARY NAME: MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS CLASSIFICATION NAME: Root Canal Filling Resin 872.3820

PREDICATE DEVICES: K011009, White MTA Material and K080203, MTA root canal sealer DEVICE DESCRIPTION: The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are designed and developed for dentists to use in dental procedures that contact with vital pulp tissue and periradicular tissue, as well as obturation and sealing of root canals. The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS can be used for dental procedures such as: pulp capping, cavity lining, base material in a cavity, pulpotomies, root-end filling, apexification, perforation repair, root resorption, and sealing/obturation.

The dentist mixes the powder with the provided gel and places the mixed MTA2 material into the space created by the procedure. The procedure may be part of caries treatment, root canal treatment, or periapical surgery. The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are available in white or gray.

INTENDED USE: The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are intended for use in dental procedures that contact pulp and periradicular tissues, as well as obturation and sealing of root canals.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS: The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are primarily hydraulic tricalcium silicate powders that are substantially similar to the powders in White MTA material (K011009) and MTA root canal sealer (K080203), which are also primarily tricalcium silicate cements. The tricalcium silicate-based materials are known to set with water into a hard substance, containing calcium hydroxide dispersed among the hydrated particles of tricalcium silicates. Both the MTA2 MATERIALS and the predicate devices are made radiopaque by adding Bi203 powder during manufacturing. COMPARISONS TO PREDICATES: We believe the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are substantially equivalent to the WHITE MTA MATERIAL (K011009), when used for contact with pulp tissue and periapical tissue, and substantially equivalent to MTA root canal sealer (K080203). when used as a root canal sealer.

Similarities: The predicates (White MTA Material & MTA root canal sealer) and the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are based on an inorganic powder composed of primarily tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate, and bismuth oxide. The predicates and the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS rely on water to hydrate the calcium silicate phases, and cause setting into a hard substance containing hydrated silicates and some calcium hvdroxide.

Both the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS and the predicate White MTA Material are used in root canals or on vital pulp tissue. Both the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS

DEC 1 1 2012

{1}------------------------------------------------

and the predicate MTA root canal sealer are used for sealing and obturation of root canals. The predicate MTA root canal sealer and the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are similar because both kits contain a gel.

The new and predicate materials had similar compositions, radiopacity, film thickness, flow and compressive strengths, when mixed at similar powder to liquid/gel ratios. Both MTA2 MATERIALS and the predicate materials induce the precipitation of hydroxyapatite crystals in synthetic body fluid.

Differences: Both a white version and a gray version of MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS will be offered, whereas the White MTA predicate is whitish and the MTA root canal sealer is vellowish. However gray forms of MTA have also been considered substantially equivalent (such as K96174, K980332, and K981620).

The predicate White MTA Material and MTA root canal sealer differ from the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS differ because the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS contain a finer powder.

The predicates White MTA Material and the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS differ because the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS kits will contain a gel to create the consistency desired. The predicate White MTA kit contains only water; however, the predicate MTA root canal sealer (K080203) has a gel.

The predicate White MTA Material and the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS differ because the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are suitable for use as a sealer, meeting the requirements of ADA 57. The predicates (White MTA Material and the MTA root canal sealer) differ from the gray form of MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS differ because the gray form contains an additional component.

NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE: MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS met the ADA 57 standard for radiopacity, solubility, dimensional stability, film thickness, and flow. The ADA 57 tests were also performed to measure the working time and setting time of MTA2 compared to the predicates. Tests for compressive strength and leaching of arsenic and lead were performed to shown conformance to ISO 9917. Analyses of the compositions were performed by x-ray diffraction and x-ray fluorescence. Washout, particle size analysis, and hydroxyapatite formation tests were also performed.

The MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS were evaluated for biocompatibility with the gel in cytotoxicity and implantation tests.

CLINICAL PERFORMANCE: No clinical tests were performed in the development of the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE: Bench testing was performed to ensure biocompatibility and that the requirements were achieved to conform to the FDA recognized standards ADA 57, ISO 6876, and appropriate requirements of ISO 9917.

We believe that the performance data provided herein demonstrate that MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS are substantially equivalent to the predicates in design, principle of performance, technology, and composition. We believe the MTA2 ROOT AND PULP MATERIALS perform as well as or better than the predicate devices.
