Fixtemp® C&B 4:1 is a resin-based material used to fabricate temporary crowns and bridges.

Device Description

Fixtemp® C&B 4:1 is an automatically mixable self-curing composite, used for the direct and indirect fabrication of temporary crowns and bridges. Fixtemp C&B 4:1 is a Type 1 – polymer-based material, per ISO 10477:2020. It is available in the tooth colors A1, A2, A3, A3.5, B1 and Bleach X.

AI/ML Overview

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

Curing Time in the mouth≥ 2 - 3 min≈ 2 - 3 min
Setting Time≥ 6 min≥ 6 min
Flexural Strength> 60 MPa> 60 MPa
Water Sorption≤ 40 µg/mm³≤ 40 µg/mm³
DurationShort term < 30 daysShort term < 30 days

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 explicitly state the sample size used for the test set or the data provenance for the non-clinical performance testing. It only states that "Bench test results allowed us to conclude that Fixtemp® C&B 4:1 meets its intended use."

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)

Not applicable. The ground truth for the performance criteria was established against recognized consensus standards (ISO 10477:2020) and compared to a predicate device, not through expert consensus on a test set.

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

Not applicable. The performance testing was based on compliance with a recognized standard and comparison to a predicate device, not on human interpretation or adjudication.

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 device is a dental material (temporary crown and bridge resin) and does not involve AI or human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant.

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

Not applicable. This device is a dental material, not an algorithm.

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

The ground truth for the non-clinical performance testing was based on:

  • Recognized Consensus Standard: ISO 10477:2020 – Dentistry – Polymer-based crown and veneering materials.
  • Predicate Device Performance: Comparison to the established performance characteristics of the legally marketed predicate device, Fixtemp® C&B (K171729).

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This device is a dental material, not a machine learning algorithm, so there is no training set in the typical sense.

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

Not applicable. As there is no training set for an algorithm, there is no ground truth established for a training set.

Dear Nevine Erian:

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 (the 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 available 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

{1}------------------------------------------------

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
