Intended Use

The STRONG Dental Handpieces. ACL(B)-03C and ACL(B)-03F. are intended for a wide range of dental procedures including:

A. Implant placement, including

    1. Preparation of the osteotomy site
    1. Bone contouring, osteoplasty
      B. Periodontal surgeries
    1. Bone contouring & alveoplasty around living teeth
    1. Removal of exostosis
      C. Bone grafting
    1. Preparation of the donor site (for e.g. symphysis and ascending rames etc.)
    1. Harvesting autogen living bone
    1. Sinus elevation & grafting of alveolar sockets
      D. Removal and sectioning of teeth and teeth bone for e.g. impacted third molars and complicated extractions
Device Description

The STRONG Dental Handpieces; ACL(B)-03C and ACL(B)-03F are gear driven handheld dental handpieces with Gear Ratio of 1:1. They can be driven by torque adjustable electrical motors for surgery treatment. They are attached to drive via ISO 3964 coupling. The head clamp accepts instrument complying with ISO 1797-1. They have contra-angle attachment for difficult to reach areas intended to prepare dental cavities for restorations, such as fillings, and for cleaning teeth.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the STRONG Dental Handpieces (models ACL(B)-03C and ACL(B)-03F). The intention is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device (K100192).

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets those criteria, based on the provided text:

Key Takeaway: This submission is for a medical device (dental handpieces), not for an AI/ML powered device. Therefore, many of the typical questions regarding AI/ML study design, such as information about training sets, test sets, ground truth establishment by experts, adjudication methods, and MRMC studies, are not applicable here. The evaluation focuses on non-clinical bench testing and biocompatibility to prove substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

§ 872.4200 Dental handpiece and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A dental handpiece and accessories is an AC-powered, water-powered, air-powered, or belt-driven, hand-held device that may include a foot controller for regulation of speed and direction of rotation or a contra-angle attachment for difficult to reach areas intended to prepare dental cavities for restorations, such as fillings, and for cleaning teeth.(b)
Classification. Class I.
