The provided text is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for a dental alloy, V-Delta Special, indicating its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This type of document does not contain the detailed study information or acceptance criteria requested in your prompt.
The 510(k) clearance process primarily focuses on demonstrating that a new device is "substantially equivalent" to a legally marketed predicate device, meaning it has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the predicate, or if it has different technological characteristics, that it does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. It typically relies on comparisons to existing devices and performance testing (which may or may not be detailed in the public summary).
Therefore, I cannot provide the information you requested based solely on the text provided. To answer your questions, I would need a different type of document, such as a clinical study report, a comprehensive premarket notification summary (510(k) summary), or an equivalent regulatory submission that details device performance and study methodology for a medical device that has undergone extensive testing.
In summary, the provided document does not contain the information needed to answer your questions regarding acceptance criteria, study details, ground truth, or expert involvement.
§ 872.3060 Noble metal alloy.
(a)
Identification. A noble metal alloy is a device composed primarily of noble metals, such as gold, palladium, platinum, or silver, that is intended for use in the fabrication of cast or porcelain-fused-to-metal crown and bridge restorations.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Dental Noble Metal Alloys.” The devices are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 872.9. See § 872.1(e) for availability of guidance information.
