    Intended Use

    The PerFect® TCS II is intended to cut or remove soft tissue or to control bleeding during dental and periodontal surgical procedures in the oral cavity.

    Device Description

    PerFect® TCS II is an electrosurge unit designed to appeal to both the new and experienced user of electrosurgery. PerFect® TCS II can simplify and enhance the results of a variety of everyday procedures performed by virtually every dentist, including the control of bleeding, gaining access to caries and aesthetic contouring of gingiva.

    The PerFect® TCS II is an AC-powered device consisting of a controlled power source and a set of cutting and coagulating electrodes. The radio-frequency energy used by PerFect® TCS II is able to sever and coagulate tissue because it focuses the heat energy at the small, active electrode. While the active electrode remains cold, sufficient heat energy is generated in its path to sever and coagulate effectively.

    The high-frequency energy focused at the active electrode returns to the electrosurge through the large dispersive electrode, which is placed on the back of the dental chair against the patient's back during use. The PerFect® TCS II has two output modes: "Cut" and "Coag." The operator can adjust the intensity of these modes. When the power output is adjusted properly, the electrode cuts without resistance, permitting an extraordinary degree of control and precision.

    The PerFect® TCS II is designed to use the Strobex (predicate) handpiece electrodes. These handpiece electrodes have not changed in biocompatibility materials (stainless steel) or in the manufacturing process. In addition performance testing was conducted by UL that included functional testing of electrodes sterilized twenty times via the recommended cycle.

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The provided documentation does not specify a discrete "test set" sample size for a clinical or in-vitro study involving patient data or images. The performance testing primarily focused on engineering and electrical safety standards compliance rather than a typical clinical evaluation with a test set of cases.

    The provenance of data is therefore not applicable in the usual sense of clinical trial data. The compliance testing was performed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Melville Division in the USA.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

    This information is not applicable as the study described is primarily an engineering and electrical safety compliance assessment, not a clinical study requiring expert labeling or adjudication of medical cases.

    4. Adjudication Method

    This information is not applicable for the same reason as point 3.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and Effect Size

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not conducted. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence through technical and safety performance, not on comparing reader performance with and without AI assistance. The device is an electrosurgical unit, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool.

    6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done

    No, a standalone algorithm performance study was not conducted. The device is a physical electrosurgical unit, not an algorithm.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for this device's evaluation was primarily defined by:

    • Recognized International and National Electrical Safety Standards: Such as IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-2, EN55011, EN60601-1-2, CAN/CSA C22.2 series. Compliance with these standards served as the basis for safety and performance "truth."
    • Predicate Device Performance: The functional capabilities and safety profile of the Strobex Ultron Electrosurge Unit (K850666) served as the benchmark for demonstrating "equally effective" performance.
    • Functional Testing Results: The ability of electrodes to maintain function after repeated sterilization cycles.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    This information is not applicable. The PerFect® TCS II is an electrosurgical unit, not a machine learning model, so there is no concept of a "training set" in this submission.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    This information is not applicable for the same reason as point 8.

    AI/ML Overview

    The Dentronix "DDS 7000" Rapid Dry Heat Sterilizer Sterilization System is designed for the dry heat sterilization of un-bagged dental instruments that can withstand exposure temperatures up to 216℃ (420° F).

    Here's an analysis of its acceptance criteria and the study proving it:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
    Achieve Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10^-6Half cycle kills result in an overall 12-log reduction of spores, thereby producing a 10^-6 SAL.
    Sterilize un-bagged dental instrumentsDemonstrated to sterilize un-bagged dental instruments.
    Withstand exposure temperatures up to 216°C (420°F)Instruments capable of withstanding these temperatures are intended for use. The sterilizer operates at 190°C (374°F).
    Complete sterilization cycle (warm-up, 3-minute exposure, cool down)Complete cycle times average 34-44 minutes, load dependent, including warm-up, 3-minute sterilization at 190°C (374°F), and cool down.
    Uniform load distributionAchieved through a dedicated rack and tray system.
    Effective across various validated load configurationsTested and validated with specified maximum load configurations for pliers and hand instruments.
    Temperature monitoring and error detectionYes (LED Display, software monitors cycle parameters, provides diagnostic error codes and audible alarm).

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

    • Sample Size for Test Set: The document mentions "Performance testing of the DDS 7000 was performed using Bacillus atrophaeus spore strips and inoculated tools." While the specific number of spore strips or inoculated tools used is not quantified, it implies a sufficient sample was used to demonstrate a 12-log reduction of spores. Full, partial, and empty chambers were also included in temperature studies.
    • Data Provenance: The study was conducted by Coltene/Whaledent Incorporated for the purpose of a 510(k) premarket notification to the FDA. The data provenance is internal testing performed by the manufacturer in the USA (Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio). It is a prospective study as it involves specific performance testing of the device.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications:

    This type of device (sterilizer) relies on established microbiological and engineering principles rather than clinical expert consensus for its "ground truth."

    • Experts: Not applicable in the sense of medical image interpretation or diagnosis. The "ground truth" for sterilization efficacy is typically defined by microbiologists who assess the viability of biological indicators (spore strips) after exposure to the sterilization cycle.
    • Qualifications: While not explicitly stated, it is assumed that personnel with expertise in microbiology, sterilization science, and engineering were involved in designing, executing, and analyzing the performance tests.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are typically used in clinical studies involving human interpretation (e.g., radiology reads where multiple experts evaluate cases and discrepancies are resolved). For sterilizer performance, the assessment is objective, based on laboratory results (e.g., no growth of Bacillus atrophaeus spores).

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

    No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic devices where the performance of human readers, with and without AI assistance, is compared. The DDS 7000 is a sterilization device, not a diagnostic imaging device.

    6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance):

    Yes, a standalone performance study was done. The performance testing described (using Bacillus atrophaeus spore strips and inoculated tools) is a direct evaluation of the device's ability to sterilize, independent of human interaction during the sterilization cycle itself (though human operation is required to initiate the cycle). The study directly assesses the sterilizer's efficacy.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

    The ground truth used is microbiological evidence. Specifically, the absence or reduction of viable microorganisms (spores of Bacillus atrophaeus) on biological indicators and inoculated tools after the sterilization cycle. This is an objective measure of sterilization efficacy.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

    Not applicable. The DDS 7000 is a hardware device (dry heat sterilizer) with software controls, not a machine learning or AI algorithm that requires a "training set" in the conventional sense. The "software validation" mentioned refers to ensuring the software correctly controls the device and functions as intended, not to training a predictive model.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

    Not applicable, as there is no "training set" for an AI or machine learning model in this context. The "software" validation principles refer to ensuring appropriate design, development, and testing of the control software to meet functional and safety requirements, as per FDA guidance documents.
