Intended Use

Denti. Al Detect is a Computer-Assisted Detection (CADe) software device intended to be used by dental professionals. comprising dentists and dental specialists, while reading extraoral and intraoral 2D dental radiographs. The device aims to assist in detecting and highlighting uncategorized regions of interest (ROIs) within the teeth area, which include cares and periapical radiolucency, as a second reader. The device is also intended to aid in the measurements of mesial and distal bone levels associated with each tooth.

The device is aimed to be used with images from the patients of 22 years age and older without remaining primary dentition. The device is not intended to replace a complete clinical judgment that considers other relevant information from the image or patient history.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION 4.

Denti.AI Detect is a prescription use Computer-Assisted Detection (CADe) device aimed to assist dentists and dental specialists in detecting and highlighting regions of interest (ROIs) within the teeth area, which include caries and periapical radiolucency. The device is also intended to aid in the measurements of medial and distal bone levels associated with each tooth.

ട. INTENDED USE/INDICATIONS FOR USE

Denti.AI Detect is a Computer-Assisted Detection (CADe) software device intended to be used by dental professionals, comprising dentists and dental specialists, while reading extraoral and intraoral 2D dental radiographs.

The device aims to assist in detecting and highlighting uncategorized regions of interest (ROIs) within the teeth area, which include caries and periapical radiolucency, as a second reader. The device is also intended to aid in the measurements of mesial and distal bone levels associated with each tooth.

The device is aimed to be used with images from the patients of 22 years age and older without remaining primary dentition. The device is not intended to replace a complete clinician's review or clinical judgment that considers other relevant information from the image or patient history.

6. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

Comparison of Intended Use/Indications for Use

Both the subject device and the primary predicate device are Computer-Assisted Detection software devices intended to be used by dental professional as a second reader to identify and mark dental findings in 2D dental radiograph. While the supported age range for the subject Denti.AI device is more limited than that of the Pearl predicate (22 years and older versus 12 years and older), both devices are only intended to be used on permanent teeth. The types of findings detected by the subject device are slightly different from those detected by the predicate device, but the intended use of both is the same, namely to detect findings of interest.

The intended use of the subject device for measuring mesial and distal bone level is the same as that of the Overjet secondary predicate device. Both devices are intended to be used to support dental professionals in conjunction with a full patient evaluation. The slight differences in features do not change the intended use of the device which is to provide measurements to trained dental professionals.

7. PERFORMANCE DATA

Biocompatibility Testing

There are no direct or indirect patient-contacting components of the subject device. Therefore, patient contact information is not needed for this device.

Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

Not applicable. The subject device is a software-only device. It contains no electric components, generates no electrical emissions, and uses no electrical energy of any type.

Software Verification and Validation Testing

Software verification and validation testing were conducted, and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff. "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a Moderate Level of Concern as a malfunction of, or a latent design flaw in, the Software Device could lead to an erroneous diagnosis or a delay in delivery of appropriate medical care that could lead to Minor Injury. Verification of the software was conducted to ensure that the product works as designed. Validation was conducted to validate the design and performance of the product.

Bench Testing

Stand-alone studies were conducted to assess the performance of the Denti. Al Detect system for 1) detecting suspicious ROIs (caries and periapical radiolucencies); and 2) making measurements of distal and mesial bone levels associated with each tooth on a range of intraoral and extraoral radiographs.

The caries and periapical radiolucency study included 709 images obtained from 6 sites in the US. Study subjects aged in range from 22 to 92 and were roughly split between males and females. Ground truthing was performed by three independent dentists with the consensus rule applied to establish final reference standard. The primary endpoint for the study was to show that the lower bound of the 95% CI of the across-category wAFROC AUC exceeds the predefined threshold of 0.6. The study met its primary endpoint with an across-category wAFRPOC AUC of 0.737 and a 95% CI of (0.713. 0.761).

The bone measurement study included 193 images obtained from 9 sites in the US. Study subjects aged in range from 22 to 88 and were roughly split between males and females. Ground

truthing was performed by three independent dentists with majority rule applied to establish final reference standard. The primary study endpoints and results are shown in Table 2.

Table 2: Primary Study Endpoints and Results

All of the Acceptance Criteria were met with the exception of the CEJ-Bone Specificity on Periapical images, where the lower CI bound was slightly less than the Acceptance Criterion.

Animal Testing

Not applicable. Animal studies are not necessary to establish the substantial equivalence of this device.

Clinical Data

A fully crossed Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) study was conducted to evaluate the Denti.AI Detect device's effect on dental professionals' performance in detecting periapical radiolucencies and caries on a range of intraoral and extraoral radiographs. A total of 154 images taken from 5 sites located across the US were included in the study enrolled 24 dental professionals who were asked to evaluate each of the images under two conditions: an unaided read followed by a computer-aided read. The results demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in across-category reader performance when assisted by Denti.AI Detect as compared to when unassisted (aided wAFROC 0.809, unaided wAFROC 0.784, difference 0.025, p-value 0.029).

CONCLUSION 8.

Denti.AI Detect has the same intended use as the predicate devices: to detect findings of interest and provide measurements on dental X-rays for use by trained dental professionals. While there are some small differences in technological characteristics between the subject device and the predicate devices, these differences do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. The results of the stand-alone and reader studies demonstrate that the performance of Denti.AI

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

Detect is equivalent to that of the predicate devices, and Denti.AI has demonstrated that the device complies with applicable Special Controls for Medical Image Analyzers. Therefore, Denti.AI Detect can be found substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
