Intended Use

This device is intended for the orthodontic movement of teeth. It is used temporarily and is removed after orthodontic treatment has been completed. The devices are intended to be single use only

Device Description

The brackets are bonded to teeth to apply pressure to the tooth, transmitted through a flexible orthodontics wire, to alter the tooth position. The ceramic bracket is produced using Al203, translucent polycrystalline aluminum ox-ide(99.99%). The brackets are bonded to the teeth with commercially available materials and linked together by "arch wire" that applies steady. gentle pressure to produce desired tooth movement.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device called "Orthodontics Bracket" by Speed Dental Co., Ltd. This document is a regulatory submission to the FDA, demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device.

However, the information requested about acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets them, particularly in the context of an AI/algorithm-based device, is not present in this document.

This document describes a traditional medical device (orthodontic brackets) and focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence based on material, design, and intended use to a predicate device. There is no mention of:

  • AI/Algorithm performance: The device is a physical orthodontic bracket.
  • Acceptance criteria for an algorithm: No algorithm is involved.
  • Studies proving algorithm performance: No such studies are relevant here.
  • Sample size for test/training sets: Not applicable for a physical device in this context.
  • Ground truth and experts: Not applicable.
  • MRMC comparative effectiveness study or standalone performance: Not relevant to this device.

The study mentioned is a Non-Clinical Study performance focusing on:

  • Maxillary torque: This is a performance characteristic of the physical bracket.
  • Biocompatibility: In compliance with ISO 10993 standards (Part 1, Part 5, Part 10). This assesses the safety of the material in biological contact.

In summary, the provided document does not contain the information requested about acceptance criteria and studies for an AI-based device because the device described is a physical, non-AI medical product.

Dear Ho Dong Yang:

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.

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

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Differences between the proposed and predicate devices are not expected to affect the overall performance of the device. These differences include slight variations in design such as maxillary angulation and torque. While the ranges are not identical, they are still within the range of what is typically observed for orthodontic brackets.

Non-Clinical Study performance

In addition to testing to determine maxillary torque, the orthodontic bracket was found to be in compliance with biocompatibility, biocompatibility study has been applied to the new device in accordance with the following standard

ISO 10993 Biological evaluation of medical devices

Part 1 - Evaluation and testing in the risk management process

Part 5 - Tests for in vitro cytotoxicity

Part 10 - Tests for irritation and delayed-type hypersensitivity

Conclusion

The Orthodontics Bracket has the same device characteristics as the predicate device, Based on the information provided in this summary we conclude that Orthodontics Bracket is substantially equivalent to the predicate device K073045.
