The surface of these systems have been treated with R.B.M (Resorbable Blast Media) for fixtures and TiN coating for abutments.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a Special 510(k) submission (K130221) for the "Hero II Dental Implant System" and a renamed "UI Dental Implant System." This submission aims to add a new design fixture model and change a name, stating that the intended use and principal technology are unchanged from the unmodified device (K121047).

The document does not contain acceptance criteria or a study proving that the device meets those criteria, as typically understood for performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or reader agreement in AI/imaging devices. Instead, this 510(k) is a substantial equivalence determination based on comparison to a predicate device.

Here's an analysis based on the provided text, addressing the requested points where information is available:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Not applicable. The document does not define specific performance acceptance criteria (e.g., accuracy, precision) for the dental implant system itself, nor does it report performance metrics against such criteria in the context of a clinical study or statistical analysis. The "performance" mentioned refers to the device's characteristics and materials.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

Not applicable. No "test set" in the context of evaluating performance metrics (like for an AI or diagnostic device) is mentioned. The submission is based on non-clinical testing and comparison to a predicate device.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications

Not applicable. No "ground truth" establishment by experts for a test set is described.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No. The document does not mention any MRMC study or any study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance. This device is a dental implant, not a diagnostic imaging device with an AI component in the described context.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

No. This is a physical medical device (dental implant), not an algorithm or AI system.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

Not applicable. There is no mention of ground truth in the context of pathology, outcomes data, or expert consensus for assessing device performance. The "ground truth" in this submission relates to the device's physical and material characteristics being substantially equivalent to the predicate.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. The device is a physical dental implant, not an AI model that requires a training set.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Not applicable.


Summary of Device Acceptance and Study (Based on the Provided Text):

The acceptance of the "Hero II Dental Implant System" and "UI Dental Implant System" in this 510(k) submission is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device (K121047). The study that proves this is a comparison of the subject device's characteristics to those of the predicate device, supported by non-clinical testing.

Acceptance Criteria (Implicitly based on Substantial Equivalence):

  • Intended Use: Must be the same as the predicate device.
  • Technological Characteristics: Must be the same or similar to the predicate device, with any differences not raising new questions of safety or effectiveness.
  • Material Composition: Must be the same as the predicate device (Titanium 6AL 4V ELI alloy).
  • Performance Characteristics (Non-Clinical): Must meet the same non-clinical performance standards as the predicate device (e.g., cleanness after surface treatment, shelf-life, sterilization validation).

Study Proving Acceptance (Substantial Equivalence Determination):

  • Purpose of Submission: To add a new design fixture model and change a name to an unmodified device cleared under K121047. The intended use and principal technology of the subject device are stated to be the same as the unmodified device.
  • Device Description: The subject devices (Hero II and UI Dental Implant System) are dental implant systems made of Titanium 6AL 4V ELI alloy. Their surfaces are treated with R.B.M (Resorbable Blast Media) for fixtures and TiN coating for abutments. Size information for various diameters and lengths is provided.
  • Indications for Use: The indications for use are identical to those of the predicate device, covering use in partially or fully edentulous mandibles and maxillae, supporting single or multiple-unit restorations, and intended for single and two-stage surgical procedures with delayed loading.
  • Non-clinical testing:
    • Tests Conducted: Energy Disperse X-ray micro analyzer (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) Analysis to verify cleanness after surface treatment, shelf-life testing, and sterilization validation.
    • Rationale: These tests were conducted on the unmodified device (K121047) and reviewed in that previous 510(k) submission. The document states that "These characteristics have not been changed on the modified device; therefore it is substantially equivalent to the unmodified device in these regards."
  • Basis for Substantial Equivalence:
    • Same intended use as predicate (K121047).
    • Same fundamental scientific technology: threaded, root form implants made of titanium.
    • Same internal hexagon abutment connection system with internal beveled interface.
    • Both are bone-level implants with similar body shape design (straight walled neck and tapered body design).
    • Difference: "minor thread design on the fixture." The submission implicitly argues this minor difference does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
  • Conclusion: The submission concludes that the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices based on identical intended use, operating principle, basic design, and material.

In essence, the "study" is a technical and regulatory comparison against a predicate device, demonstrating that the new/modified dental implant systems do not introduce new safety or effectiveness concerns compared to already cleared devices.

delayed loading.

Non-clinical testing 8.

The following nonclinical tests were conducted on the unmodified device and reviewed in the previous 510K submission (K121047). These characteristics have not been changed on the modified device; therefore it is substantially equivalent to the unmodified device in these regards.

  • Energy Disperse X-ray micro analyzer (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) Analysis to verify cleanness after surface treatment
  • Shelf life testing

  • Sterilization validation

  1. Basis for Substantial Equivalence

The Hero II Dental Implant System and the UI Dental Implant System have the same intended use as the identified predicate device (K121047). The Hero II / UI Dental Implant system and the unmodified devices are the same in fundamental scientific technology in that they are all threaded, root form implants constructed of titanium. They all share same internal hexagon abutment connection system with internal beveled interface. The subject and the unmodified devices are both bone-level implants that share similar body shape design such as straight walled neck and tapered body design.

The difference is the minor thread design on the fixture.

  1. Conclusion

The subject devices and the predicate devices have the same intended use and have the same technological characteristics. The subject and the predicate implants are all made of commercially pure titanium and have the same surface treatments.

Overall, the Hero II Dental Implant System and the UI Dental Implant System have the following similarities to the predicate devices:

    • have the same intended use,
    • use the same operating principle,
    • incorporate the same basic design,
    • incorporate the same material.

Based on the similarities, we conclude that the Hero II Dental Implant System and the Ul Dental Implant System are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
