Device Description

Dental Handpiece with models of SG200, SG200L, SA100L, SA100R, CA100L, and CA100R 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 restorations for polishing teeth.

In addition, Dental Handpiece with models of SG200, SG200L are also intended for implant surgery such as perforating the bone, tapping and threading procedures.

Dental Handpiece is designed for use by a trained professional in the field of general dentistry.

The proposed dental handpiece consists of the main body of a handpiece, which is used for transmitting a rotational force for the general dental treatments as well as accessory components. which are used for channeling water and air for further applications to the dental treatments. The torque transmitted from an electric micro-motor gets further transmitted to the joint part of Dental Handpiece. The rotational force is then decelerated according to the speed reducer of the gear to be transmitted to the head of the dental handpiece. The rotational force is transmitted under the permitted rotation mechanism.

The product is offered as an electrical-powered Dental Handpiece that is reusable and ergonomically shaped. The dental handpiece can be sterilized by the steam autoclave method. Through the tube and the electrical motor connected to a dental unit, the Dental Handpiece 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 proposed Dental Handpiece per ISO 1797:2017 (Dentistry - Shanks for rotary and oscillating instruments).

Dental Handpiece has been developed with a full range of surgical contra angle intended to be used in implantology. The contra angle-design, size and performance of the proposed Dental Handpiece conform to ISO 14457 (2017) "Dentistry -Handpieces and motors"

The six (6) product codes and models of Dental Handpiece are SG200L, SG200, CA100L, CA100R. SA100L. SA100R.The component names and functional descriptions for critical components of Dental Handpiece are provided in the table below.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a Class I dental handpiece, meaning it is seeking to demonstrate substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, rather than proving a specific performance metric against acceptance criteria. Therefore, the information requested in your prompt (acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert involvement, etc.) is not explicitly available in the provided document in the way it would be for a novel device undergoing clinical trials.

The document focuses on demonstrating that the new dental handpiece is substantially equivalent to existing predicate devices (SMARTmatic (K163239) and ANTHOGYR Contra angles and Handpieces (K093894)). Substantial equivalence is primarily proven by showing similar indications for use and technological characteristics, and by conforming to recognized standards.

Here's an analysis of the provided information relative to your request:

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

The document does not provide a table of acceptance criteria in the sense of specific thresholds for a novel device's performance metrics (e.g., a specific accuracy or sensitivity). Instead, it lists design verification and performance data tests that were conducted to confirm the device meets pre-determined design requirements and conforms to recognized standards. The "reported device performance" is generally stated as "favorable test results" or "demonstrates conformance."

Here's a table based on the information available, interpreting "acceptance criteria" as meeting the relevant standard and "reported device performance" as the outcome of the testing:

Acceptance Criteria (Interpreted as Conformance to Standard)Reported Device Performance (as stated in document)
Biocompatibility: Conformance to ISO 10993-1:2009 for tissue/bone/dentin contact with limited <24 hour contact durationFavorable biocompatibility test results, confirming the biocompatibility profile.
Rotational Speed Testing: Meet pre-determined design requirementsFavorable results, demonstrating conformance.
Noise Testing: Meet pre-determined design requirementsFavorable results, demonstrating conformance.
Water Supplying Testing: Meet pre-determined design requirementsFavorable results, demonstrating conformance.
Light Testing: Meet pre-determined design requirementsFavorable results, demonstrating conformance.
Operation Testing: Meet pre-determined design requirementsFavorable results, demonstrating conformance.
Appearance Testing: Meet pre-determined design requirementsFavorable results, demonstrating conformance.
Risk Management: Conformance to ISO 14971:2012Appropriate risk mitigation measures implemented and verifications of effectiveness conducted.
Handpiece and Motors Conformance: ISO 14457 (2017)Compliant with the same standards for dentistry handpiece and motors.
Shanks Conformance: ISO 1797 (2017)Compliant with the same standards of dentistry shanks.
Coupling Dimensions Conformance: ISO 3964 (1982)Compliant with the same standards of dentistry coupling dimensions.
Sterilization: Conformance to ISO 17665-1Conform to the same standards for user sterilization.

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 does not specify the sample sizes for the "design verification and performance data" tests (e.g., for rotational speed, noise, water supplying, etc.). It only states that these tests were performed.

For Biocompatibility, it states the testing was conducted in 2019, implying prospective testing for the proposed device. The country of origin for the data is not explicitly stated for individual tests, but the manufacturer is Micro-NX Co., Ltd. from the Republic of Korea, suggesting the testing likely occurred there or was contracted to testing facilities globally.

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)

This information is not applicable to the type of submission described. This is a 510(k) for a dental handpiece, not an AI/imaging device requiring expert interpretation for ground truth establishment. The "ground truth" here is adherence to engineering and safety standards, not diagnostic accuracy.

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

Not applicable. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical trials or studies where human interpretation of medical data is being evaluated, particularly with AI. This document pertains to the physical and functional characteristics of a medical device.

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 for a dental handpiece, not an AI or imaging diagnostic device.

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

Not applicable. This is for a dental handpiece, not an AI algorithm.

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

For this device, the "ground truth" is defined by established engineering standards, material safety standards, and functional performance benchmarks (e.g., specific rotational speeds, noise limits, water flow rates). These are objective measurements against recognized international and national standards (ISO, FDA recognized standards).

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is for a dental handpiece, not a machine learning model.

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

Not applicable. This is for a dental handpiece, not a machine learning model.
