Intended Use

The KJ ZIRCONIA Implant System is intended to use in the treatment of missing teeth to support prosthetic device, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore mastication in partially edentulous patients. It is for delayed loading.

Device Description

KJ ZIRCONIA Implant System is a dental implant system made of ZIRCONIA intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches. It is one piece type implant which the implant and the abutment are manufactured as one piece. It offers two types: BL type and BS type, and the difference is only in the length of the abutment part.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA for a dental implant system. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously marketed devices rather than presenting performance data from a clinical or algorithm-based study for an AI/ML device. Therefore, it does not contain the information needed to answer your request about acceptance criteria and study proving performance for an AI/ML device.

Here's why the document doesn't provide the requested information:

  • Device Type: The "KJ ZIRCONIA Implant System" is a physical medical device (a dental implant), not an AI/ML software device.
  • Regulatory Pathway: A 510(k) submission for this type of device typically demonstrates equivalency to existing predicate devices based on design, materials, and intended use, supported by non-clinical testing (e.g., sterilization, biocompatibility, mechanical properties). It does not usually involve clinical performance studies in the way an AI/ML diagnostic or prognostic device would.
  • Absence of AI/ML Specifics: There is no mention of algorithms, machine learning models, test sets, ground truth establishment by experts, or MRMC studies, which are all pertinent to evaluating AI/ML product performance.

Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information (acceptance criteria table, sample size, expert qualifications, adjudication, MRMC study, standalone performance, ground truth types, training set details) from this document as it pertains to an AI/ML device.

Dear Priscilla Chung:

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 of medical device-related 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.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.

8. Non-Clinical Testing

  • Sterilization validating testing in accordance with ISO11137 VDmax25, EN552, and ISO 11137
  • Real time shelf tests to validate the sterility of the device through the proposed shelf . life have been conducted for three (3) years. The testing includes visual, label, seal inspections (ASTM F88), dye penetration (ISO 11607-1) and microbial challenge (ISO11737-2).
  • Biocompatibility tests in accordance with ISO 10993-3 and ISO 10993-6 ●
  • Endotoxin Testing in accordance with USP 39 <85> on the endotoxin limit which is ● 0.5 EU/mL

The tests above support that the differences which the subject device might have when comparing to the predicate devices such as in sterilization parameters, packaging configuration, and manufacturing processes do not raise a question in substantial equivalence.

9. Conclusion

Based on the information provided, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

§ 872.3640 Endosseous dental implant.

(a)
Identification. An endosseous dental implant is a prescription device made of a material such as titanium or titanium alloy that is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore a patient's chewing function.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a root-form endosseous dental implant. The root-form endosseous dental implant is characterized by four geometrically distinct types: Basket, screw, solid cylinder, and hollow cylinder. The guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-Form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Implant Abutments” will serve as the special control. (See § 872.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.)(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II if it is a blade-form endosseous dental implant. The special controls for this device are:(i) The design characteristics of the device must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use;
(ii) Mechanical performance (fatigue) testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate maximum load (endurance limit) when the device is subjected to compressive and shear loads;
(iii) Corrosion testing under simulated physiological conditions to demonstrate corrosion potential of each metal or alloy, couple potential for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system, and corrosion rate for an assembled dissimilar metal implant system;
(iv) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible;
(v) Sterility testing must demonstrate the sterility of the device;
(vi) Performance testing to evaluate the compatibility of the device in a magnetic resonance (MR) environment;
(vii) Labeling must include a clear description of the technological features, how the device should be used in patients, detailed surgical protocol and restoration procedures, relevant precautions and warnings based on the clinical use of the device, and qualifications and training requirements for device users including technicians and clinicians;
(viii) Patient labeling must contain a description of how the device works, how the device is placed, how the patient needs to care for the implant, possible adverse events and how to report any complications; and
(ix) Documented clinical experience must demonstrate safe and effective use and capture any adverse events observed during clinical use.
