Device Description

PermaFlo Flowable Composite

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a dental product called Permaflo. It does not contain information about acceptance criteria for a device's performance, nor does it describe a study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria.

The letter simply states that the FDA has reviewed the 510(k) notification and determined the device is "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices for the stated indications for use. This means it has met the regulatory requirements for market clearance, not that its performance was evaluated against specific quantitative acceptance criteria in a clinical study.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the content of these documents. The request asks for details about a study evaluating device performance, which is not present in this regulatory clearance letter.
