Device Description

The Piezosurgery White uses ultrasonic energy to generate mechanical micro-vibration of the available tip inserts to perform the dental procedures defined in its intended use. The Piezosurgery White consists of a table-top unit (console) containing the irrigation delivery system, the internal electric power supply, the ultrasonic generator, and the control keyboard. The device also includes the piezoelectric ultrasonic handpiece and foot-pedal, both connected directly to the console by means cords, and a variety of insert tips designed with different morphologies/shapes to be used for different dental procedures, according to device's intended use. Inside the console are located the ultrasonic generator, the electrical power supply module and the microprocessor electronic board that controls and supervises the functional parameters of the device. The console is connected to mains power by an electrical cord, and includes connectors for the handpiece and for the footswitch. One external peristaltic pump, intended for delivery of saline solution to the point of use, is attached to the console. The console is equipped with a keyboard that allows the surgeon to set/control the functions of the device. The keyboard also provides monitoring information, by means icons, in case of malfunction of the device. The ultrasonic power and water flow are simultaneously activated by pressing the footswitch. The ultrasonic generator of the Piezosurgery White is microprocessor-based and uses electronics to generate and control the appropriate drive signal (power and frequency) for the ultrasonic transducer, which is housed inside the handpiece. The touch panel of the console allows setting of the following treatment/operative parameters: Six different types of treatment (IMPLANT, CORTICAL, CANCELLOUS, SPECIAL, PERIO, ENDO): Seven different levels of irrigation (from 0 to 6); The "pump/flush" function. The Piezosurgery White uses piezoelectric ultrasonic technology to generate mechanical micro-vibrations of the tip insert attached to the handpiece. A piezoelectric transducer, located inside the handpiece, and driven by the ultrasonic generator electronics, induces vibrations at ultrasonic frequencies in the insert tip. The ultrasonic generator electronics and locates the resonant frequency of the transducer/insert combination, which varies according to the geometry/morphology of the tip insert in use. The functional ultrasonic frequency of the device is between approximately 24 and 36 kHz. The Piezosurgery White handpiece transducer and family of inserts are designed to resonate in this range of frequencies.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) summary for the MECTRON S.p.A. Piezosurgery White device. It highlights the device's equivalence to a predicate device rather than providing acceptance criteria for a new AI/ML device. Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert ground truth, adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and training set details for a medical device that uses AI/ML is not available in the provided text.

The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to an existing predicate device (Piezosurgery Touch) for regulatory approval, which is a different type of evaluation than setting and meeting performance criteria for novel AI/ML functionalities.

Here's a breakdown of what is available in the document, framed against the requested items, to illustrate why the specific AI/ML performance criteria are not present:

Context of the Document:
This is an FDA 510(k) summary for a medical device called "Piezosurgery White." The purpose of a 510(k) submission is to demonstrate that a new medical device is "substantially equivalent" to a legally marketed predicate device, thereby not requiring a new premarket approval (PMA).

Piezosurgery White Device Description:
The Piezosurgery White is a piezoelectric ultrasonic device used for various oral surgical procedures (bone cutting, osteotomy, drilling) and scaling applications (calculus removal, periodontal therapy, endodontics, restorative/prosthetic procedures). It uses ultrasonic energy to generate mechanical micro-vibrations in its tip inserts.

Comparison to Predicate Device (Piezosurgery Touch):
The document extensively compares the Piezosurgery White to its predicate device, the Piezosurgery Touch (K122322). The key takeaway is that both devices use identical piezoelectric ultrasonic technology, have similar components, intended uses, operational characteristics, and output parameters. The main differences noted are minor cosmetic changes to the external design and the introduction of ten new inserts, for which specific functional and design verification was performed.


Addressing the specific categories requested, based on the provided text:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

    • N/A. The document does not describe acceptance criteria and reported performance in the context of an AI/ML device's diagnostic or predictive capabilities. Instead, it demonstrates "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device.
    • The "performance" discussed relates to compliance with recognized standards and similarity to the predicate device's operational characteristics (e.g., operational vibration frequency: 24 kHz to ~36 kHz, Max. Output: 25 Watt for both subject and predicate devices). This is about technological specifications rather than a performance metric against a disease state or outcome.
  2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):

    • N/A. The document does not describe a "test set" in the context of an AI/ML algorithm's performance evaluation against a dataset. The testing was primarily non-clinical (bench tests, compliance with safety and EMC standards, sterilization validation, software verification) to demonstrate the device's physical and functional equivalence to the predicate.
    • For the new inserts (PR1 and PR2), "Functional bench tests conducted on inserts PR1 and PR2 when attached to the Piezosurgery White handpiece verify that the operative resonant frequency of the inserts is within the functional ultrasonic frequency range of the Piezosurgery White." No specific sample size for these bench tests is given, nor is "data provenance" relevant here.
  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):

    • N/A. Ground truth, in the context of expert consensus for AI/ML evaluation, is not applicable here as the device does not make diagnostic or predictive assessments. The evaluation is against engineering specifications and comparison to a predicate device.
  4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • N/A. Not applicable, as there's no diagnostic "test set" and no expert adjudication process 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:

    • N/A. This device does not involve "human readers" or "AI assistance" in a diagnostic or interpretive capacity. It is a surgical tool. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant.
  6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • N/A. This device is a surgical instrument, not an AI/ML algorithm that operates standalone. Its "performance" is its ability to meet physical and functional specifications.
  7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

    • N/A. The "ground truth" for demonstrating substantial equivalence for this type of device primarily relies on engineering specifications, compliance with international standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, ISO 17665-1, ISO 14937), and direct comparison of its technological characteristics and intended use to a legally marketed predicate device. For new inserts, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and functional bench tests were used to verify resonant frequency.
  8. The sample size for the training set:

    • N/A. This document does not describe an AI/ML algorithm with a training set. The "software" mentioned (Page 8, Item 8) refers to the device's internal control software, which underwent "verification and validation in accordance with FDA guidance," not training on a dataset for learning tasks.
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • N/A. Not applicable, as there is no AI/ML training set.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE DISCUSSION 7.

The Piezosurgery White and the predicate device, Piezosurgery Touch, share identical indications for use / intended use.

Both devices combine the functions of a bone cutting instrument and of an ultrasonic dental scaler.

Piezosurgery White uses the same fundamental technology as the predicate device, utilizing the same piezoelectric ultrasonic technology to generate mechanical micro-vibration of the insert tips fitted onto the handpiece.

The ultrasonic generator of the Piezosurgery White. which generates and controls the appropriate drive signal (power and frequency) to the transducer, is identical in design, manufacture and function to the ultrasonic generator used in the predicate device, Piezosurgery Touch, including the availability of a low frequency burst mode.

Apart from the minor cosmetic differences existing between the external designs of the subject and predicate device cases, both the subject device and the predicate device consist essentially of a table-top unit with incorporated touch keyboard, peristaltic pump, footswitch, ultrasonic handpiece/s, hoses/connectors, a variety of tips for bone cutting, and a torque wrench for attaching the tips to the handpiece.

Compared to predicate device, Piezosurgery White presents the same operational characteristics and user interface, including identical, operating parameters, which can be selected/adjusted by the operator through the keyboard, specifically: Six output modes, seven pre-set flow rates of the irrigation fluid, and a 'Pump/Flush' function that allows the operator to prime the entire irrigation circuit

The touch keyboard of the predicate device Piezosurgery Touch has the additional function "Light" that allows the operator to manage the LED illumination of the handpiece, whereas on the subject device, when a handpiece incorporating an LED light is used, it is switched on by pressing the foot-pedal.

Except for ten new inserts, introduced with this submission, whose minimal differences compared to predicate inserts and/or to equivalent manual instruments do not raise new questions of safety or performance, all the inserts intended for use with the Piezosurgery White have been previously cleared by FDA for use with the predicate device.

Inserts PR1 and PR2, introduced in this submission, have shapes and intended use similar to existing manual periosteal elevators, having a frontal semi-circular profile with a radius of 2 mm and 5 mm respectively. The shape and dimensions of these inserts are suitable for generating ultrasonic longitudinal vibrational behaviour that mimics use of manual periosteal elevators to allow periosteum detachment by following the anatomical profile.

Inserts PR1 and PR2 have very similar shapes and designs to already-cleared inserts OP3 and EL3, having circular flat geometry of the operative part. Insert EL3 also has a very similar use to inserts PR1 and PR2, being intended for detaching/separating the sinus membrane.

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was utilized in the design of inserts PR1 and PR2 to ensure that the resonant ultrasonic frequency of the inserts was within the functional ultrasonic frequency range of the

CONCLUSION 9.

The subject device, Piezosurgery White, and the predicate device, Piezosurgery Touch, share the same intended use, principle of operation, technological characteristics to generate ultrasonic mechanical vibrations of the associated tip inserts, and range of available insert tips, with no differences that raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.

The majority of tip inserts included in this submission for use with the subject device are identical to those cleared within the 510(k) submission of the predicate device. The new tip inserts introduced within this submission are manufactured from the same materials, with similar morphologies, and sterilized by the same methods as those cleared previously by FDA with the predicate device.

Based on the information contained within this submission, it is concluded that the Mectron Piezosurgery White is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate device already in interstate commerce within the USA.
