It is contained in a waterblocked syringe and corresponds to ISO 6876:2012, Dentistry-Root canal sealing materials. DIA-ROOT BIO Sealer has two models and they are packaged with components; Disposable tip, Silicone cap.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the DIA-ROOT BIO Sealer, structured according to your request:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study for DIA-ROOT BIO Sealer (K200175)

This document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the DIA-ROOT BIO Sealer, a root canal filling resin. The submission aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device (Well-Root ST). The performance assessment for this device is based on non-clinical performance data and biocompatibility tests, as no clinical data was submitted.


1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria for the DIA-ROOT BIO Sealer are derived from the international standard ISO 6876:2012, "Dentistry - Root canal sealing materials." The device's reported performance is compared to these criteria and also to the predicate device (Well-Root ST).

Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (ISO 6876:2012)Reported Device Performance (DIA-ROOT BIO Sealer)Predicate Device Performance (Well-Root ST)Equivalence Assessment

BiocompatibilityConformance to ISO 7405, ISO 10993 seriesBiocompatibleBiocompatibleEquivalent
Performance StandardConformed to ISO 6876Conformed to ISO 6876Conformed to ISO 6876Equivalent

Note: The submission states, "The test results corresponded the requirements of standards. Therefore, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device."


2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size: The document does not explicitly state the specific number of units or samples used for each non-clinical test (Flow, Film Thickness, Solubility, Radio-opacity, Biocompatibility). It only refers to "tests conducted on the subject device."
  • Data Provenance: The tests are non-clinical in nature and were conducted to verify conformance to international standards. The country of origin of the data is not explicitly stated, but the applicant, DiaDent Group International, is based in the Republic of Korea. The data is retrospective (i.e., collected before the submission date for this premarket notification).

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Their Qualifications

This section is not applicable as the provided documentation describes a non-clinical evaluation comparing a new device to a predicate device based on performance standards and biocompatibility, not on human interpretation of clinical data or images. Ground truth in this context would refer to the established values defined by the ISO standards, which are objective measurements, not expert consensus.


4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This section is not applicable as the evaluation involved objective physical and chemical testing against defined standard criteria, not subjective human assessment requiring adjudication.


5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

An MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The submission explicitly states: "No clinical data was collected or provided to support substantial equivalence between the subject and primary predicate device." The evaluation was based solely on non-clinical performance and biocompatibility.


6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

This section is not applicable. The device is a physical medical device (root canal sealer), not an algorithm or AI-based software. Therefore, the concept of "standalone algorithm performance" does not apply.


7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests was based on established objective criteria defined by international standards, specifically ISO 6876:2012 for physical and mechanical properties (Flow, Film Thickness, Solubility, Radio-opacity) and the ISO 10993 series for biocompatibility. This is a form of objective measurement/standard conformance rather than expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data, as no clinical studies were performed.


8. Sample Size for the Training Set

This section is not applicable as the device is not an AI/ML algorithm requiring a training set.


9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This section is not applicable as the device is not an AI/ML algorithm requiring a training set.

Dear Kab Sun Lee:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

The test results corresponded the requirements of standards. Therefore, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device.

8. Technological Characteristics

The subject device, DIA-ROOT BIO Sealer has similar characteristics to the primary predicate device, Well-Root ST.

First, the indications for use of the subject device and primary predicate device is to seal root canal permanently. Our indications for use is more detailed than the predicate device, but it does not contain new indications.

Second, both the subject device and primary predicate device are premixed hydraulic materials, and to seal the root canal by hardening with water in the oral cavity. Also, they are contained in a syringe and supplied with disposable tips.

Third, both the subject device and primary predicate device confirm to ISO 6876 and have similar physical and mechanical properties; Flow, Film thickness, Solubility, Radio-opacity. Also, they are biocompatible.

Finally, they are supplied non-sterile state and have 2 years shelf-life.

The raw materials composition of the subject device is slightly different from the primary predicate device. However, the main material, Calcium silicate of the subject device is similar to Calcium aluminosilicate compound of the primary predicate device. Also, Zirconium Oxide and Polyethylene glycol are contained in both subject device and primary predicate device. Through the results of bench and biocompatibility tests, this difference does not affect substantial equivalance.
