The SMARTmatic handpieces are intended for the removal of carious material, reducing of hard tooth structure, cavity and crown preparations, root canal preparations, removal of fillings, processing and finishing tooth preparations, restorations, and for polishing teeth. They are designed for use by a trained professional in the field of general dentistry.
The SMARTmatic electrical-driven handpieces listed in the table below are dental handpieces for the use by a trained professional in the field of general dentistry. The devices are electricalpowered handpieces that are reusable and ergonomically shaped. The devices can be sterilized by the steam autoclave method. Through the tube and the electrical motor connected to a dental unit, the SMARTmatic handpieces equipped with a handpiece connection according to ISO 3964 (Dentistry - Coupling dimensions for handpiece connectors - ISO 3964:1982) receive the energy for the gear, the cooling water and air for cutting treatment. Dental burs and other attachments will be used with the SMARTmatic handpieces per ISO 1797-1:2011 (Dentistry - Shanks for rotary instruments - Part 1: Shanks made of metals).
The request asks for a detailed description of acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets these criteria. However, the provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a dental handpiece (SMARTmatic), which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than on specific acceptance criteria and a detailed study proving performance against those criteria.
The document primarily highlights the substantial equivalence of the SMARTmatic handpieces to the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces (K143465) based on intended use, technological characteristics, and performance data. It relies on conformance to various ISO standards and a guiding document for dental handpieces. The document does not contain information on:
- A specific table of acceptance criteria with reported device performance against numerical targets.
- Sample sizes for a test set or data provenance (as it's not a clinical study on diagnostic accuracy).
- Number of experts, their qualifications, or adjudication methods for ground truth.
- Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness studies.
- Standalone algorithm performance (as it's a mechanical device, not an AI algorithm).
- Sample size for a training set or how ground truth for a training set was established.
Therefore, many of the requested points cannot be extracted from this document as they are not relevant to a 510(k) submission for a dental handpiece.
However, I can extract information related to the performance data and "acceptance" from the perspective of substantial equivalence and adherence to recognized standards.
Here's the information that can be extracted and a clear indication of what is not present:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document doesn't provide a table of acceptance criteria in the sense of specific numerical thresholds for performance metrics. Instead, it relies on conformance to international standards. The "Summary of the Technological Characteristics" table ([page 7] and [page 8]) compares the new device (SMARTmatic) to the predicate device (MASTERmatic LUX) across various design and technical specifications. The "acceptance criteria" here are effectively that the new device's characteristics are either the same as the predicate or, if different, that these differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness, as demonstrated by non-clinical testing to relevant standards.

Summary of the Study (as described in the document):
The "study" described is a non-clinical performance bench testing program to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device (MASTERmatic LUX K143465).
- Methodology: Performance bench testing according to international standards (listed below) and biocompatibility and sterilization studies.
- Standards utilized for performance verification:
- ISO 3964 (Dentistry - Coupling dimensions for handpiece connectors)
- ISO 1797-1 (Dentistry - Shanks for rotary instruments - Part 1: Shanks made of metals)
- ISO 7405 / ISO 10993-1 (Dentistry - Evaluation of biocompatibility of medical devices used in dentistry / Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management system)
- ISO 14457 (Dentistry - Handpieces and motors)
- ISO 17665-1 (Sterilization of health care products - Moist heat - Part 1)
- AAMI ANSI ST79 (Comprehensive Guide To Steam Sterilization And Sterility Assurance In Health Care Facilities)
- Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff - Dental Handpieces - Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions.
- Conclusion: The tests demonstrated that despite some differences in technological characteristics (e.g., external vs. internal spray, presence/absence of fiber optics, speed range, specific chuck types, and minor dimensions), these differences do not raise new concerns regarding substantial equivalence to the predicate device. The SMARTmatic handpieces are deemed substantially equivalent based on intended use, indications, technological characteristics, principle of operation, features, and performance data derived from these non-clinical tests.
- Clinical Data: The document explicitly states: "Clinical data is not needed to characterize performance and establish substantial equivalence. The non-clinical test data characterize all performance aspects of the device based on well-established scientific and engineering principles. Clinical testing has not been conducted on this product."

Per the Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff; Bundling Multiple Indications in a Sinqle Submission, dated June 22, 2007, Kaltenbach and Voigt GmbH is bundling the SMARTmatic models listed above as the models do not differ significantly in purpose, design, materials, energy source, function or any other feature related to safety and effectiveness. The device description and intended use are identical for all configuration models. All critical components within the SMARTmatic dental handpieces are common. The minor differences between the models are cosmetic in nature such as straight or contra-angle design, size / shape of the handpiece, with / without external water spray, and bur movement.
The different electrical motors (i.e. INTRAmatic LUX KL 702) utilized with the SMARTmatic handpieces, are registered with the different dental treatment units (K103027 in the case of INTRAmatic LUX KL 702). Based on the INTRAmatic connection that meets the ISO 3964:1982 standard (Dentistry - Coupling dimensions for handpiece connectors), the SMARTmatic handpieces fit with any electrical dental motor which is produced in accordance to this standard. The different electrical motors will not be delivered together with the SMARTmatic handpieces. The electrical motors carry the gear, the gear, the cooling water and air for cutting treatment from the dental treatment unit to the SMARTmatic handpieces.
Accessories:
Additionally, the SMARTmatic handpiece models equipped with external spray will be supplied with a jet needle. The straight handpieces SMARTmatic S10 / S10 K / S10 S are equipped with a drill bit stop and a hook for removal of the drill. Dental burs and other attachments that meets the ISO 1797-1:2011 standard (Dentistry - Shanks for rotary instruments - Part 1: Shanks made of metals) may be inserted into the chuck system of the SMARTmatic handpieces for applicable cutting operations based on the intended use. The Accessories are for informational purposes only.

- Description of the Principle of Operation / Mechanism of Action The Drill Bit Stop (Bur ● Stop) is used when using contra-angle burs in a straight handpiece.
- . A description of proposed conditions of use / How used with the SMARTmatic – The operator will open the handpiece chuck then insert the bur stop in the chuck. The operator will then press the contra-angle bur onto the bur stop and then close the clamping ring making sure that it is firmly seated.
Hook (SMARTmatic S10 / S10 K / S10 S):
- Description of the Principle of Operation / Mechanism of Action The Hook is used by ● the operator when removing the Bur Stop.
- A description of proposed conditions of use / How used with the SMARTmatic When a . contra-angle bur is used that requires a Drill Bit Stop (Bur Stop), the Hook is required to remove the Bur Stop out of the chuck after use.
Mechanism of Action:
The SMARTmatic dental handpieces are electrical-driven handpieces which will be supplied with energy, water and air through the tube and the electrical motor of a dental treatment unit. Based on the speed adjusted in the dental treatment unit the handpiece bur rotates up to 40,000 rom. The SMARTmatic handpieces interact with the patient through a rotating bur with the patient teeth according to the intended use.
Statement of Intended Use:
The SMARTmatic handpieces are intended for the removal of carious material, reducing of hard tooth structure, cavity and crown preparations, root canal preparations, removal of fillings, processing and finishing tooth preparations, and for polishing teeth. They are designed for use by a trained professional in the field of general dentistry.
Substantial Equivalence:
The SMARTmatic handpieces function in a manner similar to and are intended for the same use as the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces (K143465) marketed by Kaltenbach & Voigt GmbH. The SMARTmatic handpieces are similar to the predicate device (K143465) in that they are dental electrical-driven handpieces for the use by a trained professional in the field of general dentistry. The SMARTmatic handpieces are substantially equivalent in design, application and function to the predicate device (K143465). Both the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces (K143465) and the SMARTmatic handpieces are reusable and ergonomically shaped. The devices can be sterilized by the steam autoclave method. Dental burs and cutters (with straight handpiece shank or with contra-angle shank) according to ISO 1797-1 (Dentistry - Shanks for rotary instruments - Part 1: Shanks made of metals - ISO 1797-1:2011) can be used for both, the SMARTmatic handpieces and the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces (K143465). In addition, both handpiece types, the SMARTmatic handpieces and the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces (K143465) are equipped with a handpiece connection according to ISO 3964 (Dentistry - Coupling dimensions for handpiece connectors - ISO 3964:1982) and receive the energy for the gear, the cooling water and air for cutting treatment through the tube and the specific electrical motor connected to a dental unit as the mechanism of action.
{7}------------------------------------------------
The SMARTmatic handpieces differ from the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces (K143465) in dimensions, speed range, type of chuck, fiber optics and the supply of spray. The SMARTmatic handpieces are only available with external spray (according to the model). The SMARTmatic handpieces are not available with a fiber optic light system. The speed range of the SMARTmatic handpieces which is up to 40.000 rpm differs from the speed range of the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces (200.000 rpm). Some models of the SMARTmatic handpieces are also available with a different type of chuck. Both devices have small differences in the dimensions (see Table - Summary of the Technological Characteristics).
The performance tests demonstrate that the differences in technological characteristics do not raise different concerns reqarding substantial equivalence to the predicate device. Hence, the SMARTmatic handpieces are substantial equivalent to the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces.
In summary, the SMARTmatic handpieces with the indications for use and intended use described in this submission are substantially equivalent to the MASTERmatic LUX handpieces cleared under K143465. It also satisfies all criteria of substantial equivalence and does not raise new concerns regarding substantial equivalence: (1) Indications for Use, (2) Technological Characteristics and (3) Performance Data. The new device does not introduce a fundamentally new scientific technology and the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the device is substantial equivalent.
