The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and its associated summary for the Neodent Implant System - Zirconia Implant System contain extensive information about the device, its intended use, and comparisons to predicate devices. However, it does not include specific acceptance criteria with numerical thresholds directly stated within the tables, nor does it detail a study that directly proves the device meets such criteria in terms of performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or image quality assessments.
Instead, the submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices through various tests, implying that if the new device performs similarly to or better than previously cleared devices, it meets the necessary standards. The performance testing section describes the types of tests conducted (e.g., dynamic fatigue, torsion, insertion, pull-out, and software validation), but it does not present clear quantitative acceptance criteria or the specific performance results in a comparative table format.
Therefore, many of the requested fields cannot be directly extracted from the provided text as they pertain more to the performance evaluation of AI/software in interpreting medical images, which is not the primary focus of this dental implant submission.
Here's an attempt to answer the questions based on the available information, noting where information is not explicitly provided in the document:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study for Neodent Implant System - Zirconia Implant System
The FDA 510(k) summary for the Neodent Implant System - Zirconia Implant System focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices through a combination of bench testing, software validation, MRI compatibility, biocompatibility, and sterilization validation. It does not present specific quantitative acceptance criteria or performance metrics directly from a comparative study in the way one might expect for an AI/software-based medical device (e.g., sensitivity, specificity thresholds). Instead, the "acceptance criteria" are implicitly met by demonstrating that the proposed devices perform at a level substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices under standardized testing conditions.
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
As mentioned, explicit numerical acceptance criteria and reported device performance in a comparative table (e.g., for diagnostic accuracy) are not provided in this 510(k) summary. The summary indicates that tests were conducted according to relevant ISO standards and FDA guidance, and the results demonstrated that the subject devices exhibit a level of performance substantial equivalent to the predicate and reference devices.
Below is a conceptual table based on the types of tests mentioned, noting that specific numerical acceptance criteria and performance data are not detailed in the provided text.
| Acceptance Criteria Category (Implicit) | Standard/Guidance | Reported Device Performance (Summary) |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic Fatigue Strength | ISO 14801, FDA Guidance (Class II Special Controls) | Demonstrated a level of performance substantial equivalent to predicate and reference devices in identical conditions. |
| Torsion Strength | Not specified | Adequate torsion strength in accordance with recommended IFU installation torque. |
| Insertion Torque | Not specified | Evaluated insertion torque in sawbones material (Bone type I, II, III, IV). (Specific values not given). |
| Implant Surface Area & Pull-Out Strength | Not specified | Greater surface area compared to reference devices; higher resistance values in Pull Out Test. |
| Software Validation (Sirona Digital Workflow) | Not specified | Accuracy requirement was met; critical design parameters (min wall thickness, max angulation) respected and monitored. |
| MRI Compatibility | K182620, FDA Guidance | MR conditional labeling from K182620 is applicable; safe for scanning under previously established parameters. |
| Biocompatibility | ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-18, ISO 10993-5, FDA Guidance | Subject devices are equivalent in material and manufacturing processes to predicates; no new issues raised; no additional testing required. |
| Sterilization Validation (Ethylene Oxide) | ISO 11135:2014 | Validated to a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 1x10⁻⁶; residuals below max allowable limits per ISO 10993-7. |
| Sterilization Validation (Moist Heat) | ISO 17665-1 | Validated using parameters described in IFU. |
| Endotoxin Test | ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011, ISO 11737-3, US Pharmacopeia chapter 85 | Results |

(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;
