QRS Dental Implants Systems are 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 masticatory function. When a one-stage surgical procedure is applied, the implant may be immediately loaded when good primary stability is achieved and the occlusal load is appropriate.
The implants (Ø3.3mm and one-piece) are indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement only in the mandibular central, lateral incisor and maxillary lateral incisor regions of partially edentulous jaws, to provide support for prosthetic devices such as artificial teeth. Mandibular central and lateral incisors must be splinted if using two or more narrow implants adjacent to one another.
QRS Dental Implants are self-tapping, root-form, one piece or two piece screw (Red Class, Blue Class and Gold Class) type dental implants, indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement in the upper or lower jaw to provide support for prosthetic devices such as artificial teeth, in order to restore the patient chewing function.
The QRS' dental implant is a two stage screw type device that can equally well be used as one stage, surgically placed in the upper or lower jaw to provide support for prosthetic devices in partially or completely edentulous patients. The QRS' two piece implant is to be used in combination with several different abutments and superstructures provided in order to aid in the prosthetic rehabilitation.

Maximum compatibility and accuracy can be achieved when using compatible QRS tools, drills, accessories and prosthetic parts manufactured by QRS.
The QRS Dental Implants System has demonstrated substantial equivalence to predicate devices through a combination of non-clinical performance data.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The provided document does not explicitly present acceptance criteria in a quantitative table format with corresponding reported device performance, as might be found in a more detailed test report. Instead, it lists the types of tests performed and generally concludes that the device "showed equivalence to the predicate devices" or "demonstrates at least equivalent performance."
However, we can infer the acceptance criteria from the tests conducted and the stated conclusions of equivalence:
| Acceptance Criterion (Inferred from testing) | Reported Device Performance (as stated in the document) |
|---|---|
| Dynamic Fatigue Performance (ISO 14801) | Demonstrated equivalence to the predicate devices. |
| Surface Analysis (FDA Guidance, SEM, XPS) | Conducted and deemed acceptable. |
| Sterilization Validation (ISO 11137-1, 11137-2) | Validated according to standards. |
| Abutment Steam Sterilization Validation (ISO 17665-1, ISO 17665-2) | Validated according to standards. |
| Package Integrity Testing (ASTM F1929-12) | Conducted and deemed acceptable. |
| Accelerated Aging (ASTM F1980-07) | Conducted and deemed acceptable. |
| Material Compliance (ASTM F 136) | Materials meet ASTM F136. |
| Biocompatibility - Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5) | Demonstrated acceptable cytotoxicity. |
| Biocompatibility - Skin Sensitization and Intracutaneous (ISO 10993-10) | Demonstrated acceptable skin sensitization and intracutaneous properties. |
| Endotoxin Testing (USP 161) | Conducted and deemed acceptable. |
| Cleanliness of Implants (ISO 19227) | Tested and deemed acceptable. |
| MRI Environment Compatibility (FDA Guidance, scientific rationale, published literature) | Determined to be "MRI conditional" based on non-clinical worst-case MRI review. |
| Overall Equivalence to Predicate Device | Demonstrated a similar intended use, fundamental technology, and indications for use, with performance testing supporting substantial equivalence. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
The document does not specify the sample sizes used for the test sets for any of the non-clinical tests (e.g., dynamic fatigue, surface analysis).
The data provenance is non-clinical, indicating these are laboratory tests performed on the physical devices. There is no mention of country of origin for the data; typically, such non-clinical tests are performed by the manufacturer or a contracted testing lab. The nature of these tests means they are inherently prospective in execution, as new devices are produced and specifically subjected to these tests to gather performance data.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
This question is not applicable to the type of studies described. The studies are non-clinical, laboratory tests evaluating the physical and material properties of a dental implant system. They do not involve interpretation of medical images or patient data requiring expert consensus or ground truth establishment in the traditional sense of clinical studies for diagnostic or treatment effectiveness. The "ground truth" for these tests are the standards themselves (e.g., ISO 14801, ASTM F 136) and the measured physical properties of the device.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
This is not applicable as the studies are non-clinical laboratory tests. Adjudication methods like "2+1" or "3+1" are typically used in clinical studies or studies involving human readers/interpreters to resolve discrepancies in ground truth establishment.
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 MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The submission solely relies on non-clinical performance testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, without involving human readers or AI assistance.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
No standalone algorithm-only performance study was done. This device is a physical dental implant system, not an AI-powered diagnostic or therapeutic algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used
For the non-clinical tests, the "ground truth" is defined by:
- International Standards: e.g., ISO 14801 (dynamic fatigue), ISO 11137-1/2 (sterilization), ISO 17665-1/2 (abutment sterilization), ISO 10993-5/10 (biocompatibility), ISO 19227 (cleanliness). The device's performance is compared against the requirements and methodologies outlined in these standards.
- ASTM Standards: e.g., ASTM F136 (material specification), ASTM F1929-12 (package integrity), ASTM F1980-07 (accelerated aging).
- FDA Guidance Documents: For surface analysis and MRI environment testing.
- Scientific Rationale and Published Literature: Used for MRI compatibility assessment.
Essentially, the ground truth is compliance with established engineering and biocompatibility standards and guidelines.
8. The sample size for the training set
This is not applicable. There is no mention of a training set as this is not a machine learning or AI device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
This is not applicable as no training set was used.

Technological Characteristics
The QRS Dental Implants System have the same intended use and principles of operation as MIS Implants' Dental Implants cleared under 510(k) K180282 and have equivalent performance characteristics. The material used for the QRS Dental Implants System, as well as the manufacturing methods are the same as the predicate device.
QRS' Implants system include four types of implants (Red Class, Blue Class, Gold Class and one-piece) and the predicate device include three types of implants (Seven, M4, UNO).
The additional of implant (Gold Class) don't affect the intended use and indication for use since they are meant to be used the same way as the primary predicate device: the gold class implant 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 masticatory function. When a one-stage surgical procedure is applied, the implant may be immediately loaded when good primary stability is achieved and the occlusal load is appropriate.
The Indications for Use statement for the subject device is not identical to the predicate device; however, the differences do not alter the intended use of the device nor do they affect the safety and effectiveness of the device relative to the predicate.

Both the subject and predicate devices are intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches for anchoring or supporting tooth replacement to restore chewing function, in partially or fully edentulous patients.
Predicate and subject devices have the same intended use and similar indications, Subject and predicate devices all have the same internal hex connection and internal geometry per platform.
They have the same following diameters: 3.3, 3.75, 4.2, 5 and 6.0.
The length range of the predicate device is 8 -16 mm. They all undergo the same surface treatment that was cleared under K180282, with additional anodizing in the internal hex connection of the implants.
Although there are minor differences in threading, apex, body design and neck design, these differences are common in end osseous implants and do not raise different safety or efficacy questions. Fatigue testing per ISO 14801:2016 assessed the impact of these differences and demonstrates at least equivalent performance.

Non-Clinical Performance Data
Fatigue test was performed according to ISO 14801 on the QRS' dental implants and showed equivalence to the predicate devices.
Clinical Performance Data
No clinical performance data is provided in this submission.
Summary
The comparison between the subject device and the predicate devices has shown that the indications for use, principles of operation, technological characteristics and materials were similar, and that the differences did not raise new safety and effectiveness issues. Furthermore, performance testing showed that the predicate device is at least equivalent to the predicates by means of performance.
Conclusions
The QRS's dental system has the same intended use, incorporate the same fundamental technology, and has similar indications for use as the predicate. Test data to verify the performance of the QRS's dental system has been provided including: dynamic fatigue, sterilization validation, shelf life, and the results of this testing, combined with the design and intended use comparison with the predicate device, support substantial equivalence.
§ 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.
