L-OVC is intended for restoration of permanent teeth with a single unit crown.
The L-OVC is a ceramic crown, and includes an anatomic occlusal layer made of lithium disilicate, a thin priming/bonding layer that assists with bonding the occlusal layer to the sub-layer of uncured hybrid ceramic that allows for customization of the L-OVC to the specific tooth preparation. The customized L-OVC is bonded to the prepared natural tooth. The L-OVC is for restoring structurally compromised posterior teeth in cases normally restored with an onlay or a partial crown in a single dental visit. The L-OVC is selected based on tooth location and size and therefore no impressions are necessary. The L-OVC is provided in designs for the upper and lower first and second premolars and second molars, and each design is provided in five (5) sizes (extra-small (XS), small (S), medium (M), large (L), and extra-large (XL)). The L-OVC is made from lithium disilicate and high-strength ceramic composite resin. The L-OVC is provided nonsterile for singlepatient, single-use only.
Accessories to the L-OVC device include the L-OVC Replica, a replica of the ceramic occlusal portion of the L-OVC. The L-OVC Replica is used to confirm that sufficient occlusal clearance was obtained during tooth preparation and to provide direct visualization of the overall 3D position of the L-OVC on the prepared tooth and the relationship with adjacent and opposing dentition. The L-OVC Replica is manufactured from a thermoplastic elastomer resin. L-OVC Wedges are accessories provided in four configurations (small right, large left and large right), and are placed interproximally to create a working surface and to block out undercuts of the preparation. The Wedges are manufactured from polyacetal resin. The Selector Keys are accessories that allow the clinician to measure the mesial-distal distance in order to choose the appropriate size L-OVC for the restoration, and are used during the curing of the uncured resin to prevent disturbing the placement of the crown. The Selector Keys are manufactured from polycarbonate resin. All accessories are provided nonsterile for singlepatient, single-use only. The Class I accessories are provided for informational purposes only.
The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for a dental device called L-OVC, which is a ceramic crown. This document describes the device, its intended use, and argues for its substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices. However, it explicitly states: "No clinical data were included in this submission." This means that the document does not contain information about a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria based on clinical performance with human subjects.
Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance related to clinical outcomes, nor details about sample sizes for test sets, data provenance, expert involvement for ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, or standalone algorithm performance. These types of studies and associated data are typically part of clinical trials, which were not included in this submission.
The "Performance Data" section solely mentions non-clinical testing data used to demonstrate substantial equivalence. This non-clinical data includes:
- Biocompatibility evaluation: According to ISO 10993-1, 10993-5, 10993-6, 10993-10, 10993-11, and 10993-12.
- Ceramic material characterization: Flexural strength, solubility, and radioactivity according to ISO 6872.
- Shelf life testing: According to ASTM F1980.
These non-clinical tests are conducted in a laboratory setting to ensure the material safety and physical properties of the device, rather than its clinical effectiveness or accuracy in a diagnostic context. The document also notes that biocompatibility testing was performed for the L-OVC Replica material due to its difference from the predicate's replica material.
The acceptance criteria in this context would be meeting the specified standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM) for these non-clinical tests, indicating the device's materials are safe and perform as designed in a laboratory environment. The "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" refers to these non-clinical tests.
Summary of available information based on the provided document:
1. Table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance:
| Acceptance Criteria (Non-Clinical) | Reported Device Performance (as demonstrated by testing) |
|---|---|
| Biocompatibility (ISO 10993 series) | Evaluated as per relevant ISO 10993 standards |
| Ceramic Material Flexural Strength (ISO 6872) | Characterized as per ISO 6872 |
| Ceramic Material Solubility (ISO 6872) | Characterized as per ISO 6872 |
| Ceramic Material Radioactivity (ISO 6872) | Characterized as per ISO 6872 |
| Shelf Life (ASTM F1980) | Tested as per ASTM F1980 |
Note: The document states these tests were performed and provided for substantial equivalence, implying they met the relevant criteria of these standards, but does not provide specific numerical results or thresholds.
2. Sample size used for the test set and data provenance:
Not applicable for clinical performance data, as "No clinical data were included in this submission." For non-clinical tests, the sample sizes and specific test methodologies would be detailed in the test reports referenced by the ISO and ASTM standards, but these details are not provided in the summary.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and qualifications of those experts:
Not applicable. No clinical test set to establish ground truth for clinical performance.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
Not applicable. No clinical test set.
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 a dental ceramic crown, not an AI/diagnostic imaging device, and "No clinical data were included in this submission."
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. This is a dental ceramic crown, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used:
For non-clinical tests (biocompatibility, material properties, shelf life), the "ground truth" would be established by the objective measurements and standards defined by the ISO and ASTM protocols.
8. The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
Not applicable. No training set.

The subject device and the primary predicate K143694 have similar Indications for Use statements.
The subject device and the primary predicate device have similar indications for use, the same intended use, and essentially the same designs for the individual crown components. The subject device comprises four materials: lithium disilicate substantially equivalent to the reference predicate K100512, polymer composite resin used in the same way as in the primary predicate K143694, and materials similar to those of the reference predicates K090826 and K123397. The subject device and the primary predicate device K143694 are provided in a range of designs and sizes to restore the premolars and molars of the upper and lower jaw. For the specific teeth that each device is designed to restore, both the subject device and the primary predicate device K143694 provide preformed anatomic occlusal surfaces.
{6}------------------------------------------------
The subject device priming/bonding layer, which assists with bonding the occlusal layer to the sub-laver, consists of the reference predicate materials Monobond Plus (K090826) and Multilink Automix (K123397). The Monobond Plus and Multilink Automix materials are used in the subject device for their cleared indications and according to the manufacturer's instructions for use.
The subject device and the primary predicate device K143694 also both incorporate light-cured resin material as a sub-layer to conform to the shape of the prepared tooth, and to provide a customizable, single visit crown restoration. The subject device sub-layer (the crown surface bonded to the prepared tooth) is manufactured from a layer of uncured polymer composite resin to allow for customization and to assist with a cohesive fit of the crown to the prepared tooth. This is the same material used for the same purpose in the primary predicate K143694.
The design of the subject device occlusal layer and the design of the primary predicate device K143694 are essentially the same, except that the subject device has chamfered surfaces (on the apical aspects) and a slightly increased thickness. The chamfered surfaces and slightly increased thickness of the subject device occlusal layer are accommodated by the natural tooth preparation and the thickness of the uncured hybrid ceramic sub-layer. The subject device occlusal layer is made of lithium disilicate, the same intended use as the reference predicate device K100512. Performance testing of the subject device lithium disilicate material also was provided in this submission to support a determination of substantial equivalence.
The L-OVC accessory devices are substantially equivalent in terms of design and function to the predicate K 143694 accessory devices. The designs of the subject device L-OVC Replica are very similar to those of the predicate OVC Replica. The material for the L OVC Replica is different than that of the OVC Replica. To support a determination of substantial equivalence, biocompatibility testing of the L-OVC Replica material was provided in this submission.
CONCLUSION
The subject device and the predicate devices have the same intended use, have similar technological characteristics, and are made of similar materials. The subject device and the primary predicate devices encompass the same range of physical dimensions. The subject device and the predicate devices are packaged in similar materials and are provided nonsterile for single-patient, single-use only.
The data included in this submission demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices listed above.
