Intended Use

Overjet Caries Assist (OCA) is a radiological, automated, concurrent-read, computer-assisted detection (CADe) software intended to aid in the detection and segmentation of caries on bitewing and periapical radiographs. The device provides additional information for the dentist to use in their diagnosis of a tooth surface suspected of being carious. The device is not intended as a replacement for a complete dentist's review or their clinical judgment that takes into account other relevant information from the image, patient history, or actual in vivo clinical assessment.

Device Description

Overjet Caries Assist (OCA) is a radiological, automated, concurrent-read, computer-assisted detection (CADe) software intended to aid in the detection and segmentation of caries on bitewing and periapical radiographs. The device provides additional information for the dentist to use in their diagnosis of a tooth surface suspected of being carious. The device is not intended as a replacement for a complete dentist's review or their clinical judgment that takes into account other relevant information from the image, patient history, or actual in vivo clinical assessment.

OCA is a software-only device which operates in three layers: a Network Layer, a Presentation Layer, and a Decision Layer. Images are pulled in from a clinic/dental office, and the Machine Learning model creates predictions in the Decision Layer and results are pushed to the dashboard, which are in the Presentation Layer.

The machine learning system with the Decision Layer processes bitewing and periapical radiographs and annotates suspected carious lesions. It is comprised of four modules:

  • Image Preprocessor Module
  • Tooth Number Assignment Module
  • Caries Module
  • Post Processing
AI/ML Overview

This document describes the Overjet Caries Assist (OCA) device, a computer-assisted detection (CADe) software intended to aid dentists in the detection and segmentation of caries on bitewing and periapical radiographs.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document doesn't explicitly state numerical acceptance criteria for sensitivity or specificity in a "table" format as initial goals. However, it does state a performance objective for the clinical reader improvement study: "Increase in dentist's sensitivity of greater than 15%". The other metrics are presented as reported performance from standalone and clinical evaluation studies.

Clinical Evaluation (Reader Improvement)Bitewing Images (n=330)
Increase in reader sensitivity (overall)> 15%78.5% (assisted) vs. 64.6% (unassisted)Increase = 13.9%. This falls slightly below the stated >15% criterion, though the document concludes it demonstrates a "clear benefit". The text states "overall reader sensitivity improved from 64.6% (56.4%, 72.1%) to 78.5% (72.6%, 83.6%) unassisted vs assisted", if calculated as a direct percentage difference (78.5-64.6 = 13.9), it is slightly below 15%. If interpreted as (assisted/unassisted)-1 * 100 ((78.5/64.6)-1)*100 = 21.5%, then it meets the criterion. The framing in the document implies the latter.
Overall reader specificity (decrease)Not explicitly stated (implied minimal decrease is acceptable)98.6% (assisted) vs. 99.0% (unassisted)Decrease of 0.4%
Overall wAFROC AUC (increase)Not explicitly stated0.785 (assisted) vs. 0.729 (unassisted)Increase of 0.055, statistically significant (p<0.001)

2. Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance:

  • Standalone Testing:

    • Sample Size: 1,293 Bitewing images (27,920 surfaces) and 1,314 Periapical images (16,254 surfaces).
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated regarding country of origin. The images were from "the following sensor manufacturers: Carestream, Dexis, e2v, Gendex, Hamamatsu, Jazz Imaging, ScanX, Schick, Soredex Digora." The context of US licensed dentists for ground truth suggests the data is likely from the US or a similar dental practice environment. The document specifies "Digital files of bitewing and periapical radiographs whose longer edge is greater than 500 pixel resolution."
    • Retrospective/Prospective: Not explicitly stated, but the description of collecting and annotating existing images suggests it was a retrospective study.
  • Clinical Evaluation (Reader Improvement Study):

    • Sample Size: 330 bitewing images (94 containing caries / 236 without caries) and 330 periapical images (94 containing caries / 236 without caries).
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated regarding country of origin, but the "US licensed dentists" implies the study was conducted within the US.
    • Retrospective/Prospective: Not explicitly stated, but similar to the standalone testing, the use of a predefined image set for readers suggests retrospective.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth:

  • Standalone Testing: Ground truth established by consensus of three US licensed dentists. Non-consensus labels were adjudicated by an oral radiologist. No specific years of experience are listed, but "US licensed dentists" and "oral radiologist" imply professional qualifications relevant to dental imaging interpretation.
  • Clinical Evaluation (Reader Improvement Study): Ground truth established by consensus of three US licensed dentists. Non-consensus labels were adjudicated by an oral radiologist. (Same as standalone testing).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • Standalone Testing & Clinical Evaluation: The method described is consensus of three experts, with a fourth expert (oral radiologist) adjudicating non-consensus cases. This can be described as a "3+1 adjudication" method, where the "1" is specifically for tie-breaking or resolving disagreements among the initial three.

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

  • Yes, a MRMC study was done. This is detailed under "Clinical Evaluation - Reader Improvement."
  • Effect Size / Reader Improvement:
    • Bitewing Images:
      • Overall reader sensitivity improved from 64.6% (unassisted) to 78.5% (assisted). This is an absolute increase of 13.9 percentage points.
      • Weighted AFROC AUC increased from 0.729 (unassisted) to 0.785 (assisted), an increase of 0.055. This increase was statistically significant (p < 0.001).
      • Mean Dice scores increased from 0.67 (unassisted) to 0.76 (assisted) for primary caries. Similar increases were observed for other caries types.
    • Periapical Images:
      • Overall reader sensitivity improved from 65.6% (unassisted) to 79.0% (assisted). This is an absolute increase of 13.4 percentage points.
      • Weighted AFROC AUC increased from 0.799 (unassisted) to 0.848 (assisted), an increase of 0.050. This increase was statistically significant (p < 0.001).
      • Mean Dice scores increased from 0.73 (unassisted) to 0.80 (assisted) for primary caries. Similar increases were observed for other caries types.

The document concludes that the increase in wAFROC numbers clearly demonstrates improvement in caries detection by dentists when aided by Overjet Caries Assist, aligned with increases in sensitivity and minimal decrease in specificity.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study:

  • Yes, a standalone performance study was done. This is detailed under "Standalone Testing." The results for the algorithm's sensitivity, specificity, and Dice scores are provided for both bitewing and periapical images.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • Expert Consensus. For both standalone and clinical evaluation studies, the ground truth was "established by consensus of labels of three US licensed dentists, and non-consensus labels were adjudicated by an oral radiologist."

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • The document does not explicitly state the sample size for the training set. It describes the "Machine Learning model" and its components but does not provide details about the data used for training.

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

  • The document does not explicitly state how the ground truth for the training set was established. It only details the ground truth establishment for the test sets used in standalone and clinical performance evaluations.

6. Device Description

Overjet Caries Assist (OCA) is a radiological, automated, concurrent-read, computer-assisted detection (CADe) software intended to aid in the detection and segmentation of caries on bitewing and periapical radiographs. The device provides additional information for the dentist to use in their diagnosis of a tooth surface suspected of being carious. The device is not intended as a replacement for a complete dentist's review or their clinical judgment that takes into account other relevant information from the image, patient history, or actual in vivo clinical assessment.

OCA is a software-only device which operates in three layers: a Network Layer, a Presentation Layer, and a Decision Layer. Images are pulled in from a clinic/dental office, and the Machine Learning model creates predictions in the Decision Layer and results are pushed to the dashboard, which are in the Presentation Layer.

The machine learning system with the Decision Layer processes bitewing and periapical radiographs and annotates suspected carious lesions. It is comprised of four modules:

  • Image Preprocessor Module This module performs two functions: .

{4}------------------------------------------------

  • Resizes and normalizes the images o
  • o Evaluates the incoming radiograph and predicts the image type as Bitewing, Periapical, or other. Any images classified as "other" are not processed.
  • . Tooth Number Assignment Module - This module analyzes the processed image and determines what tooth numbers are present and provides a pixel wise segmentation mask for each tooth number.
  • . Caries Module - This model segments carious lesions using an ensemble of 3 Instance Segmentation models.
  • . Post Processing - The overlap of tooth masks from the Tooth Number Assignment Module and carious lesions from the Caries Module are used to assign specific carious lesions to a specific tooth. The Post Processing module annotates the original radiograph with the carious lesions' predictions.

7. Indications for Use

Overjet Caries Assist (OCA) is a radiological, automated, concurrent-read, computer-assisted detection (CADe) software intended to aid in the detection and segmentation of caries on bitewing and periapical radiographs. The device provides additional information for the dentist to use in their diagnosis of a tooth surface suspected of being carious. The device is not intended as a replacement for a complete dentist's review or their clinical judgment that takes into account other relevant information from the image, patient history, or actual in vivo clinical assessment.

8. Intended Patient Population

The intended patient population of the device is patients that have permanent dentition, and who are at least

12 years of age.

9. Warnings and Limitations

  • The safety and effectiveness of the system has not been established on primary or mixed dentition.
  • The device should only be used by licensed dentists.
  • . The Overjet Caries Assist device assists only in potential caries detection, and should not be relied upon as the sole decision-making tool for diagnosis or treatment.
  • . Overjet Caries Assist has been tested with the sensors listed here and in the user manual. Overjet cannot guarantee the accuracy of results when Overjet Caries Assist is used on images from other sensors.
  • The Overjet Caries Assist device is not intended for images smaller than 500 x 500 resolution. ● Overjet cannot guarantee the accuracy of results when Overjet Caries Assist is used on images of lower resolution.
  • If images are rotated incorrectly (i.e., left side bitewing on right side), tooth numbering and caries predictions will not be accurate.
  • As with any CADe device, the product has the potential for false positive or false negative outputs. The user should use all appropriate clinical information to render a final clinical opinion, with radiographic interpretation assisted by Overjet being one component of the determination process.
  • The Overjet Caries Assist device is trained to detect caries based on radiolucencies visible on radiographs. In areas where teeth overlap significantly, Overjet Caries Assist is trained to not predict caries due to the high potential of detecting false positives. If tooth overlap is present but the radiolucency can still be distinctly visualized, Overjet Caries Assist will predict in these areas.

{6}------------------------------------------------

The subject Overjet Caries Assist (OCA) device for this 510k submission is determined to be substantially equivalent to the previously cleared OCA device (K212519). The differences are as follows:

  • Analysis of Periapical radiographs in addition to Bitewing radiographs ●
  • Multiple sensor manufacturers, as opposed to previous clearance for only two sensor . manufacturers
  • Target population is 12 years and older with permanent teeth (as opposed to 18 years and older, in K212519)

Overjet does not believe that these differences raise any concerns of substantial equivalence, and that the changes to intended use are well supported by performance testing and present no increased risk to patients.

{7}------------------------------------------------

11. Performance Testing

Overjet has conducted performance testing according to FDA's "Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff Computer-Assisted Detection Devices Applied to Radiology Images and Radiology Device Data - Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions Document'' issued on 03 Jul 2012 and the "Clinical Performance Assessment: Considerations for Computer-Assisted Detection Devices Applied to Radiology Images and Radiology Device Data in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions" Guidance issued January 2020, as part of the development process of the caries model. Performance testing included standalone testing and a clinical reader evaluation. All testing demonstrated that Overjet Caries Assist (OCA) met prespecified requirements.

Standalone Testing

Standalone performance of the Overjet AI algorithm was evaluated on a total of 1,293 Bitewing images and 1,314 Periapical images. Sensitivity and specificity were summarized based on surfaces, and 95% Cls were provided based on treating the subject as the basis of a cluster. A total of 27,920 bitewing surfaces and 16,254 periapical surfaces were available and included in the analysis. Standalone performance of the OCA device was compared to a ground truth established by consensus of labels of three US licensed dentists, and non-consensus labels were adjudicated by an oral radiologist.

Standalone testing included images from the following sensor manufacturers: Carestream, Dexis, e2v, Gendex, Hamamatsu, Jazz Imaging, ScanX, Schick, Soredex Digora.

Sensitivity

For bitewing images, overall standalone sensitivity was 76.6% (73.8%, 79.4%). Subgroup sensitivity was as follows: Primary caries - 79.9% (77.1%, 82.7%); Secondary caries - 60.9% (53.5%, 68.2%); Enamel - 74.4% (70.4%, 78.3%); Dentin - 79.5% (75.8%, 83.2%)

For periapical images, overall standalone sensitivity was 79.4% (76.1%, 82.8%). Subgroup sensitivity was as follows: Primary caries - 79.8% (76.0%, 83.7%): Secondary caries - 77.9% (71.4%, 84.5%); Enamel - 67.9% (60.7%, 75.1%); Dentin - 84.9% (81.3%, 88.4%).

Specificity

Overall specificity was 99.1% (98.9%, 99.2%) for bitewing images, and 99.4% (99.2%, 99.5%) for periapical images.

Subgroup Analyses

Subgroup analyses were also performed for age, sex, sensor, and associated restoration (for secondary caries).

{8}------------------------------------------------

Lesion Segmentation

Dice coefficient analysis was performed to compare pixel-level metrics of each carious lesion with the lesion tracing provided by ground truthers. Dice scores were calculated only for true positives.

For bitewing images, the mean Dice score was 0.77 (0.76, 0.78) for primary caries, 0.73 (0.70. 0.75) for secondary caries, 0.76 (0.75, 0.77) for enamel caries, and 0.77 (0.76, 0.79) for dentin caries.

For periapical images, the mean Dice score was 0.79 (0.78, 0.81) for primary caries, 0.79 (0.77, 0.82) for secondary caries, 0.75 (0.73, 0.77) for enamel caries, and 0.81 (0.80, 0.82) for dentin caries.

Clinical Evaluation - Reader Improvement

Overjet evaluated the performance of Overjet Caries Assist in a multi-reader fully crossed reader improvement study. 28 US licensed dentists were split into 2 groups of 14 each. One group was asked to evaluate 330 bitewing images (94 containing caries / 236 without caries) and the other was asked to evaluate 330 periapical images (also 94 containing caries / 236 without caries). Ground truth was established by the consensus labels of three US licensed dentists, and nonconsensus labels were adjudicated by an oral radiologist. Half of the data set contained unannotated images, and the second half contained radiographs that had been processed through the OCA model. Radiographs were presented to readers in alternating groups.

In Session 1, readers were asked to outline suspected caries, and to review predictions from the OCA model. Each reader was asked to provide a rating of 1 - 4 for their confidence in the annotation (1 for lowest confidence, up to 4 for highest confidence). A 4-week washout period was utilized to limit recollection bias. Following the washout, the readers were presented the same data set but with alternate grouping. I.e., if a reader saw a radiograph in the unpredicted state in session 1, they were presented with the same radiograph with OCA predictions in session 2, and vice versa.

Results were compared against a consensus ground truth, and the sensitivity, specificity, and weighted alternative free response receiver operating characteristic (wAFROC) were evaluated to characterize the performance of the readers with (assisted) and without (unassisted) viewing the model annotations.

Unassisted vs. Assisted Sensitivity:

For bitewing images, overall reader sensitivity improved from 64.6% (56.4%, 72.1%) to 78.5% (72.6%, 83.6%) unassisted vs assisted. Subgroup improvement was as follows: Primary caries - 67.1% (58.3%. 74.8%) to 83.1% (78.0%. 87.7%) Secondary caries - 51.2% (35.9%, 66.1%) to 55.8% (40.9%, 70.4%) Enamel - 61.8% (51.5%, 71.0%) to 77.6% (70.1%, 83.9%) Dentin - 68.5% (59.8%, 76.8%) to 79.9% (72.6%, 86.9%)

{9}------------------------------------------------

For periapical images, overall reader sensitivity improved from 65.6% (59.4%, 71.7%) to 79.0% (73.0%, 84.7%) unassisted vs assisted. Subgroup improvement was as follows:

Primary caries - 67.5% (60.8%, 74.1%) to 80.5% (73.6%, 86.8%)

Secondary caries - 56.1% (43.5%, 69.3%) to 71.6% (59.1%, 83.5%)

Enamel - 58.6% (47.2%, 69.4%) to 74.1% (63.9%, 83.2%)

Dentin - 69.6% (62.5%, 76.0%) to 81.9% (75.1%, 88.3%)

Unassisted vs. Assisted Specificity:

For bitewing images, overall reader specificity decreased slightly from 99.0% (98.5%, 99.4%) to 98.6% (98.0%, 99.0%) unassisted vs assisted.

For periapical images, overall reader specificity decreased slightly from 98.0% (97.4%) to 97.6% (97.0%, 98.1%) unassisted vs assisted.

Subgroup Analyses:

Subgroup analyses were also performed for age, gender, sensor, reader experience, and associated restoration (for secondary caries).

Unassisted vs Assisted Dice Scores:

As with standalone testing, Dice scores were calculated in comparison to ground truth for readers with and without Overjet Caries Assist.

On bitewing images, mean Dice scores increased from 0.67 (0.009 SD) to 0.76 (0.009 SD) for primary caries, 0.65 (0.017 SD) to 0.67 (0.016 SD) for secondary caries, 0.65 (0.009 SD) to 0.74 (0.009 SD) for enamel, and 0.67 (0.012 SD) to 0.74 (0.012 SD) for dentin.

On periapical images, mean Dice scores increased from 0.73 (0.011 SD) to 0.80 (0.011 SD) for primary caries, 0.69 (0.025 SD) to 0.74 (0.025 SD) for secondary caries, 0.64 (0.015 SD) to 0.73 (0.014 SD) for enamel, and 0.76 (0.013 SD) to 0.81 (0.013 SD) for dentin.

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

Weighted AFROC (wAFROC) Scores:

Readers provided confidence scores for any detected caries, which were used to calculate AUC for weighted AFROC scores.

On bitewing images, for the average of all readers, AUC increased from 0.729 (0.696, 0.761) to 0.785 (0.746, 0.822), for an increase in AUC of 0.055 (0.033, 0.079) unassisted to assisted. This increase was statistically significant, with an overall p-value less than 0.001.

On periapical images, for the average of all readers, AUC increased from 0.799 (0.764, 0.833) to 0.848 (0.814, 0.881), for an increase in AUC of 0.050 (0.031, 0.068) unassisted to assisted. This increase was also statistically significant, with an overall p-value less than 0.001.

Summary

Increase in overall wAFROC numbers clearly demonstrate improvement in caries detection by dentists when aided by Overjet Caries Assist (0.055 increase for bitewing, 0.050 increase for periapical). This aligns with the observed increases in sensitivity for both bitewing and periapical images. When considered alongside the decreases in overall specificity (only 0.4% for both bitewing and periapical images), it is clear that Overjet Caries Assist demonstrates a clear benefit for caries detection.
