Intended Use

The TruBase S is a titanium component that is directly connected to endosseous dental implants to provide support for patient-specific prosthetic restorations, such as copings or crowns. It is indicated for serew-retained single tooth or cement-retained single tooth and bridge restorations. It is compatible with the following systems:

  • · Zimmer TSV 3.7, 4.1. 4.7. 6.0 mm (3.5. 4.5, 5.7mm platform sizes)
    All digitally designed abutments and/or coping for use with the TruBase S are to be designed using Sirona inLab software or Sirona CEREC Software and manufactured using a Sirona CEREC or inLab MCX or MC XL milling unit.
Device Description

TruBase S consists of a two-piece abutment, where the titanium base is a pre-manufactured abutment that will be used to support a CAD/CAM designed superstructure (the second part of the two-piece abutment) that composes the final abutment.
TruBase S abutments are made of titanium alloy conforming to ASTM F136 Standard Specification for Wrought Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) Alloy for Surgical Implant Applications and are provided in various prosthetic platform diameters (4.3, 5.3, 6.5 mm) and four gingival heights (0.8, 1.8, 2.8, 3.8mm), all having a 4.7mm prosthetic post height. They also feature:

  • cylindrical shape
  • hexagonal indexing at the apical end of the connection
  • indexing guide in the cementable portion for coping fitting
    The CAD/CAM patient-specific superstructure that composes the final abutment must be designed and milled through the Sirona Dental CAD/CAM System, according to the prosthetic planning and patient clinical situation.
    TruBase S is provided non-sterile therefore must be sterilized after the cementation of the patient-specific superstructure on the TruBase S.
AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a dental implant abutment, TruBase S, and details the non-clinical testing performed to establish its substantial equivalence to predicate devices. It does not contain information about a study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the context of a clinical trial or a full performance study with human subjects, AI systems, or ground truth established by experts as would be typical for an AI/ML medical device.

The information primarily focuses on mechanical testing, material equivalence, and compatibility, which are acceptance criteria for this type of medical device's safety and effectiveness.

Here's a breakdown of the available information based on your request, with an emphasis on what is not present in the document.

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

The document doesn't present a table of acceptance criteria with specific numerical performance metrics in the way you might expect for an AI/ML device (e.g., sensitivity, specificity). Instead, it states that tests met "the criteria of the standard" or "demonstrated substantial equivalence."

Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device PerformanceComments
Fatigue Test (ISO 14801:2016)"The results of the fatigue test have met the criteria of the standard, ISO 14801:2016, and demonstrated the substantial equivalence with the predicate device."This implies meeting a predefined mechanical strength and durability threshold for dental implants. Specific numerical fatigue limits are not provided.
End User Steam Sterilization Test (ISO 17665-1:2006, 17665-2:2009, ANSI/AAMI ST79:2010)"Below tests were performed for predicate device, K152559 and leveraged for the subject device" and it indicates "Equivalent" for sterility and end-user sterilization.The subject device relies on predicate device testing and demonstrates equivalence in sterilization methods. Specific test results are not detailed for the subject device itself; the equivalence is based on the final sterilization by the user.
Biocompatibility Tests (ISO 10993-1:2009, ISO 10993-5:2009, and ISO 10993-10:2010)"Below tests were performed for predicate device, K152559 and leveraged for the subject device" and states that "all materials are shown to be biocompatible."The subject device leverages biocompatibility data from predicate devices, implying similar material properties and safety.
Dimensional Analysis and Reverse Engineering"The testing demonstrated implant-to-abutment-to-mesostructure compatibility and has established substantial equivalency of the proposed device with predicate devices."Confirms mechanical fit and compatibility with specified implant systems.
Software Verification and Validation Testing (Sirona Dental CAD/CAM System)"The subject TruBase S was verified and validated with respect to its functionality and design using the Sirona validated workflow." and "The recommended CAD/CAM System is the same used for the primary predicate device and the validation performed was based on the validation presented by the manufacturer of the primary predicate device."Confirms that the device works correctly within the established CAD/CAM workflow, relying on prior validation for the software system.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document refers to "non-clinical testing" for the TruBase S and leverages results from predicate devices for other tests. These are likely laboratory or bench tests on physical samples rather than patient data.

  • Sample size for test set: Not explicitly stated as "test set" in the context of patient data. For mechanical fatigue testing, "worst-case scenario (smallest diameter with maximum angulation)" implies a specific configuration of a few physical samples, but the exact number isn't provided.
  • Data provenance: Not applicable in the context of patient data. The tests are non-clinical, likely conducted in a lab environment.

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)

Not applicable. This device is a passive dental component, and its evaluation relies on engineering standards and mechanical testing, not a clinical interpretation by human experts establishing ground truth from patient data.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable. There's no clinical imaging or diagnostic data requiring expert adjudication.

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

No. This document does not pertain to an AI/ML device that assists human readers.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

No. This is not an AI/ML algorithm. The "software" mentioned is CAD/CAM software used for design and manufacturing, not an AI for diagnosis or treatment planning. The device itself is a physical dental abutment.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The "ground truth" for this type of device is established by adherence to recognized engineering standards (e.g., ISO 14801:2016 for fatigue, ISO 10993 for biocompatibility) and dimensional compatibility with existing implant systems. There is no biological or expert consensus "ground truth" as you would find for diagnostic devices.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that uses a training set.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device.

Summary of Technological Characteristics

Both the subject and the reference devices have the same indication of providing support for prostheses. All devices are pre-manufactured titanium bases made of titanium (Ti-6AI-4V ELI), designed to be used as a base when fabricating a CAD/CAM patient-specific superstructure and are compatible with the same CAD/CAM system and blocks of raw material. A clinician or dental laboratory equipped with the Sirona Dental CAD/CAM System will design and mill the patient-specific superstructure, which composes the final medical device after the bonding to TruBase S.

The subject devices differ from the primary predicate devices cleared under K151324 only in the portion of implant connection, which is specific for each manufacturer. The cementable portion is identical and compatible with the Sirona Dental CAD/CAM System and the blocks of raw material. In the end of this section a comparison between the features of subject device and its predicate devices is shown in a tabular format.

Non-clinical Testing

The subject device was tested to evaluate its substantial equivalence according to the following standards.

  • Fatigue Test according to ISO 14801:2016 ●
    Below tests were performed for predicate device, K152559 and leveraged for the subject device:

  • End User Steam Sterilization Test according to ISO 17665-1:2006, 17665-2:2009 and ● ANSI/AAMI ST79:2010.

  • Biocompatibility tests according to ISO 10993-1:2009, ISO 10993-5:2009, and ISO 10993-● 10:2010.

Non-clinical test data was used to evaluate the proposed device's substantial equivalence compared to the predicate device. The results of the above tests have met the standard, and demonstrated the substantial equivalence with the predicate device.

Mechanical Testing

Mechanical Testing was conducted in accordance with FDA Guidance "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments", and it consisted of testing finished assembled implant/abutment systems of the worst-case scenario, (smallest diameter with maximum angulation) through fatigue testing. The fatigue limit demonstrates the substantial equivalence. The results of the fatigue test have met the criteria of the standard, ISO 14801:2016, and demonstrated the substantial equivalence with the predicate device.

Dimensional analysis and reverse engineering

Dimensional analysis and reverse engineering the OEM implant body, OEM implant abutment and OEM abutment fixation screw including all the connection platforms (implant-to-abutment-tomesostructure) were performed, including an assessment of maximum and minimum dimensions of critical design aspects, tolerances, and cross-sectional images of the submission device and compatible implant body as well as the OEM implant abutment and implant body. The testing demonstrated implantto-abutment-to-mesostructure compatibility and has established substantial equivalency of the proposed device with predicate devices.

Software Verification and Validation Testing

The recommended software was considered as a "moderate" level of concern, since a failure or latent design flaw could directly result in minor injury to the patient or operator. Therefore, the subject TruBase S was verified and validated with respect to its functionality and design using the Sirona validated workflow. The recommended CAD/CAM System is the same used for the primary predicate device and

{10}------------------------------------------------

the validation performed was based on the validation presented by the manufacturer of the primary predicate device.

Note: TruAbutment makes no changes to the software, its setting or configuration, as well as no modification in the workflow defined and validated by Sirona per K111421. The Sirona software is recommended because of the compatibility of its existing 3D models with the subject device. Clinical testing was not necessary to establish substantial equivalency of the device.

Conclusion: TruBase S constitutes a substantially equivalent medical device, meeting all the declared requirements of its intended use. This system has the same intended use and fundamental scientific technology as its predicate devices. Therefore, TruBase S and its predicates are substantially equivalent.
