Primescan 2 can be used as a diagnostic aid by licensed dentists for detection of caries on visible tooth surfaces, proximal caries, and tooth cracks.
The Primescan 2 is an intraoral scanner that records and generates digital images to provide caries diagnosis support using additional light sources at 405 nm and 850 nm and an optical filter to filter out the excitation light. By illuminating the tooth with these two wavelengths, two diagnosis support modes are realized, the fluorescence mode and the near-infrared mode. The acquired 2D data from the scanner can be viewed in the software in a live stream video during acquisition. The images are also stored in the cloud platform software for later patient communication.
In fluorescence mode, the tooth (or teeth) are illuminated with UV light (405 nm). This stimulates an autofluorescence of the enamel in the green wavelength range. In addition, the red fluorescence is stimulated in carious areas on the teeth. All stimulated fluorescence responses are significantly weaker in terms of their light intensity compared to the back-reflected excitation light. For this reason, the excitation light is filtered out with the aid of an optical filter. The dental professional can use the 2D image data of the fluorescence response (live stream video) as additional information for caries diagnosis.
For near-infrared mode (NIR mode), the tooth or teeth are illuminated with 850 nm. Enamel is partially transparent in this wavelength. The illumination can therefore penetrate the tooth and is reflected by structural defects such as cracks and cavities, as well as from the dentin core. The reflected light is picked up by the 2D sensor of the scanner.
When used, a sleeve is placed over the distal end of the scanner. This sleeve is the only patient contacting component and is offered as either a single-use disposable or a multi-use sleeve that is reprocessed.
Here's the breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the Primescan 2 device, based on the provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter:

However, it does mention that "in vivo bench tests demonstrated that Primescan-2 is effective as a diagnostic aid for occlusal caries using the fluorescence function and tooth cracks using the NIR function." This implies that the device met an unstated level of effectiveness for these diagnostic aids.
Since specific quantitative metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) are not provided in the summary, we cannot populate a detailed table with numerical acceptance criteria and performance outcomes.
Acceptance Criterion | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Effectiveness as diagnostic aid for occlusal caries (fluorescence mode) | Demonstrated effectiveness |
Effectiveness as diagnostic aid for tooth cracks (NIR mode) | Demonstrated effectiveness |
Study Details
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Sample Size for Test Set: Not specified in the provided document.
- Data Provenance: The study was "in vivo bench tests," implying data was collected from living subjects. The country of origin and whether it was retrospective or prospective is not explicitly stated.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
- Number of Experts: Not specified.
- Qualifications of Experts: Not specified.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
- Adjudication Method: Not specified.
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
- MRMC Study: Not mentioned in the provided document. The study described is "Performance Validation Testing of the Caries diagnostic Aid - In vivo bench tests demonstrated that Primescan-2 is effective as a diagnostic aid..." This describes standalone device performance rather than human-in-the-loop improvement.
6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Standalone Performance Study: Yes, a standalone performance study was done. The document states: "Performance Validation Testing of the Caries diagnostic Aid - In vivo bench tests demonstrated that Primescan-2 is effective as a diagnostic aid for occlusal caries using the fluorescence function and tooth cracks using the NIR function." This indicates the device's ability to provide a diagnostic aid on its own.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
- Type of Ground Truth: Not explicitly stated. For "in vivo bench tests" related to caries and tooth cracks, ground truth would typically be established through a combination of visual-tactile examination by experienced clinicians, potentially supplemented by radiography or even histology (though less common for a diagnostic aid). However, the document does not specify the method used here.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Sample Size for Training Set: Not applicable or not specified. This device appears to be a direct imaging and diagnostic aid rather than an AI/ML algorithm that requires a separate training set. The "diagnostic support" refers to the illumination and optical filtering techniques, not necessarily an AI algorithm trained on a dataset.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable, as there's no indication of an AI/ML algorithm with a training set. The device operates on optical principles.
Key Observations and Limitations of Information:
- The provided 510(k) summary focuses highly on technological comparisons, safety, and regulatory compliance (electrical safety, biocompatibility, reprocessing, software, cybersecurity).
- While it mentions "Performance Validation Testing," it lacks specific quantitative results (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, AUC) that are typically associated with diagnostic device clearances.
- The clinical study details, such as sample size, expert qualifications, and ground truth establishment methods for the performance validation, are not provided in this specific document. This information would typically be in a more detailed study report submitted to the FDA, but is summarized very broadly here.
- The device is described as providing "diagnostic support" using optical modes (fluorescence and NIR), rather than an explicit AI algorithm.

The Midwest Motor Control Module includes a control unit, ports for three motors, an apex location port, and a peristaltic pump port. The motor ports are compatible with the Midwest Power Lux and Midwest Power Lux Implant.
The Midwest Power Lux electric micromotor is intended for use as a drive for rotating and oscillating straight and contra-angle hand pieces for endodontic and general dental purposes.
The Midwest Power Lux Implant motor is intended for use in implant placement and includes a closed system for delivery of sterile solution via peristaltic pump operation.
The apex locator supports the dentist in the determination of the working length during the endodontic treatment.
These motors are to be driven by the control unit. The control unit is an internal component of a dental delivery system.
The use of this product is intended exclusively for duly qualified dental practitioners.
This device is a system that includes a control module (internal component of a dental delivery system) that can operate up to three dental motors, an apex locator, and a peristaltic pump. The motors do not operate concurrently. The motors that can be attached include dental motors and dental implant motors. The motors included with this module in this subject system are the Midwest Power Lux and Midwest Power Lux Implant. Also included is the cable, file, and tip required for the operation of the apex location technology. The programming supports manual use of the apex locator as well as combined use of the locator with a motor. The included peristaltic pump and control allows for sterile solution irrigation when required.
The provided FDA 510(k) Clearance Letter for the "Motor and Apex Module (MaAM)" (K251811) does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets specific performance criteria related to the apex locator's accuracy or the motors' performance in a clinical setting.
The document primarily focuses on regulatory approval, substantial equivalence to predicate devices, and general safety and performance testing. While it mentions the device supports "determination of the working length during the endodontic treatment" (for the apex locator) and drives "rotating and oscillating straight and contra-angle hand pieces for endodontic and general dental purposes" (for the motors), it does not provide the specific performance metrics (e.g., accuracy, precision, torque output, speed stability) for these functions, nor the studies that verified them.
The "Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions" section explicitly states: "Not applicable (no clinical data necessary)." This indicates that the FDA clearance was based on non-clinical testing, primarily focused on safety, electrical compatibility, and adherence to established industry standards (ISO 14457 for dental motors, IEC 62471 for photobiological safety, and ISO 3964 for dental coupling dimensions).
Therefore, based solely on the provided document, I cannot generate the requested table and study details. The information about performance acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert involvement, adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and ground truth establishment for clinical effectiveness is absent.
However, I can extract and present the information that is available in the document regarding testing:
Summary of Device Performance and Testing (Based on Available Information in K251811)
The provided 510(k) clearance letter for the Motor and Apex Module (MaAM) establishes substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on non-clinical testing. The document explicitly states "Not applicable (no clinical data necessary)", indicating that the clearance did not involve clinical studies assessing the device's functional performance in a patient setting, such as the accuracy of the apex locator or the clinical efficacy of the motors.
The testing highlighted in the document focuses on compliance with international standards and mechanical/electrical safety.

Mechanical Integrity | (Implicitly part of regulatory requirements; specific tests/results not detailed but assumed to be met for clearance). |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: Not specified in the document. Testing was non-clinical (bench/laboratory).
- Data Provenance: Non-clinical (bench testing in a laboratory). Country of origin is not specified for the test data itself, but the applicant (Dentsply Sirona Inc.) is located in the United States. The testing was retrospective in the sense that it was conducted prior to the submission for clearance.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications
- Not applicable. The clearance was based on non-clinical, standard-driven testing. There was no clinical ground truth established by experts for performance assessment in a patient setting.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Not applicable. No clinical test set or subjective assessment requiring adjudication (like image interpretation) was mentioned.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
- No MRMC study was done. The document explicitly states "Not applicable (no clinical data necessary)". Therefore, no effect size of human readers improving with AI vs. without AI assistance can be reported. The device is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool in the sense of image interpretation.
6. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only)
- Not applicable. The device is a physical medical device (motors, control module, apex locator) and not an algorithm or AI software for standalone performance evaluation in a diagnostic context. Its "performance" refers to its physical and electrical operation within specified limits, not its diagnostic accuracy.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
- Not applicable, for clinical performance. For the non-clinical tests, the "ground truth" was established by the specifications defined in the referenced ISO and IEC standards (e.g., a motor must achieve a certain speed, a coupling must fit, light emission must be within safety limits). There was no "expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data" ground truth as would be used for diagnostic accuracy studies.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not applicable. This device is hardware with embedded control software; it is not a machine learning or AI model that requires a training set in the typical sense of algorithm training on data.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- Not applicable. As above, this device does not utilize a "training set" in a machine learning context.
In conclusion, the FDA 510(k) clearance for the MaAM (K251811) was granted based on non-clinical testing demonstrating conformance to relevant safety and performance standards for dental motors, photobiological safety, and dental coupling dimensions. The document explicitly states that no clinical data was necessary for this clearance, meaning functional performance (e.g., apex locator accuracy, motor clinical efficacy) in a patient setting was not assessed as part of this submission.

MIS dental implant system is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore masticatory function. When a one-stage surgical procedure is applied, the implant may be immediately loaded when good primary stability is achieved and the occlusal load is appropriate.
Narrow implants (Ø3.30mm) are indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement only in the mandibular central, lateral incisor and maxillary lateral incisor regions of partially edentulous jaws, to provide support for prosthetic devices such as artificial teeth. Mandibular central and lateral incisors must be splinted if using two or more narrow implants adjacent to one another.
The subject devices, MIS Implants, are supplied sterile and packaged together with a cover screw which can be connected to the implant during the initial healing period after implant placement.
The implants and cover screws are made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI complying with standard ASTM F136-13 - Standard Specification for Wrought Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) Alloy for Surgical Implant). The design and material of the implants and cover screws remain unchanged since most recently cleared 510(k).
The implants are also used with a wide range of previously cleared abutments which are sold separately.
This document is a 510(k) clearance letter for dental implants, not an AI/software as a medical device (SaMD) submission. Therefore, it does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and study proving device meets acceptance criteria for an AI/SaMD product.
The document discusses dental implants and their physical and material characteristics, regulatory classifications, predicate devices, and performance testing for mechanical properties, sterility, and packaging. The "Performance Data" section specifically mentions "Hydrophilicity testing" for "wet-packed implants" and other physical tests, but none of these relate to AI/SaMD performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or reader studies.
Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria, sample sizes for test sets, expert qualifications, or details on MRMC studies, standalone performance, or ground truth establishment relevant to an AI/SaMD product based on the provided text.
The prompt asks for information that this type of medical device submission (dental implants) would not typically include.

DS Core Diagnosis is a software product for use in dentistry for viewing and interacting with digital or digitized patient media as well as supporting the diagnosis of digital or digitized patient media. Intended users will be able to view and analyze different media types in one viewer.
The Panoramic Curve Proposal feature is intended for patients aged 12 years and older with permanent dentition.
DS Core Diagnosis is a cloud-based dental imaging software that provides access to dental media and images via an active internet connection. It is a medical device that can only be used in combination with the DS Core Platform. Classified as a Class II dental imaging software, DS Core Diagnosis allows users to view a variety of media types, including 2D and 3D images (e.g., bitewings, periapicals, panoramic, CBCT, etc.), as well as photos and documentation.
The software includes standard image viewing tools such as annotation, flip, rotate, contrast adjustment, brightness, and magnification.
DS Core Diagnosis also features a Machine Learning enabled panoramic curve proposal algorithm for a proposed panoramic curve of a CBCT scan along the dental arch, which can be adjusted and reviewed by the user. The architecture is a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model.
DS Core Diagnosis does not interact directly with patients or control any life-sustaining devices. The software does not perform diagnoses; instead, it provides tools to assist qualified clinicians in interpreting the displayed images and making informed decisions.
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them, based on the provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter for DS Core Diagnosis:
Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Panoramic Curve Proposal Success Rate (PCPSR): Percentage of cases where the proposed panoramic curve projection layer includes all teeth in the scan. | Dentsply Sirona Scans: PCPSR of 98.81%, with the lower bound of the 95% CI at 94.57%. |
All Scans (Dentsply Sirona & Third Party): PCPSR of 99%, with 99 of 100 scans considered "successful" and the lower bound of the 95% CI at 95.42%. | |
Various Subgroups: PCPSR range of 97.78-100%, all passing the acceptance criteria. | |
Clinical Acceptability (Pass/Fail) of Default Panoramic Image: Determine the acceptability of the CBCT reconstructed panoramic images (without user modification) with the panoramic curve proposal generated by the PCP algorithm, to begin working per the standard of care. | Clinical Evaluation Pass Rate: 92.5% pass rate overall for the primary endpoint. |
System validation and usability testing for the DS Core Diagnosis device. | All tests successfully passed. |
Study Details
Based on the provided text, the following details about the studies can be extracted:
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- PCPSR Evaluation:
- Test Set Size (Dentsply Sirona & Third Party): 100 scans (specifically mentioned "99 of 100 scans considered 'successful'").
- Data Provenance: A mix of "Dentsply Sirona Scans" and "Third Party" scans. Specific countries of origin are not detailed, but the inclusion of third-party scans suggests a broader dataset. The text does not explicitly state if it was retrospective or prospective, but given the nature of evaluating existing scans, it's highly likely to be retrospective.
- Clinical Evaluation:
- Test Set Size: "a dataset made up of CBCT images". The exact number of cases or images in this dataset is not explicitly stated.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but would likely be retrospective CBCT images used for evaluation.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- PCPSR Evaluation: The text doesn't explicitly state that experts established ground truth for the PCPSR calculation directly. The success rate is described as whether "the proposed panoramic curve projection layer includes all teeth in the scan," which likely refers to an objective assessment based on the image content itself, possibly verified by a technical process rather than subjective expert consensus.
- Clinical Evaluation: "clinical experts assessed a dataset". The number of experts is not specified. Their qualifications are described as "clinical experts," implying dental professionals (e.g., dentists, oral and maxillofacial radiologists) but their specific experience levels (e.g., "radiologist with 10 years of experience") are not detailed.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
- The text does not explicitly mention an adjudication method (like 2+1, 3+1). For the clinical evaluation, it states "experts assessed," which could imply independent assessment or consensus, but no specific method is described. For the PCPSR evaluation, the metric seems more objective and less prone to requiring adjudication in the same way.
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:
- No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study where human readers' performance with and without AI assistance is compared is not explicitly described. The clinical evaluation focuses on the acceptability of the default AI-generated curve, not a comparison of expert performance with and without AI. It emphasizes that users retain full autonomy to adjust the curve.
6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Yes, a standalone performance evaluation was done for the "Panoramic Curve Proposal" feature. The PCPSR evaluation directly assesses the algorithm's ability to propose a curve that includes all teeth, without human intervention in the proposal generation or acceptance. The "clinical evaluation" also assesses the default AI-generated panoramic image "without user modification."
7. The type of ground truth used:
- PCPSR Evaluation: The ground truth appears to be an objective determination of whether "all teeth in the scan" are included within the proposed panoramic curve. This would likely be established by a clear definition and potentially manual verification of tooth inclusion. It is closer to expert consensus if human verification was involved, but the description sounds more like an objective technical check.
- Clinical Evaluation: The ground truth for this aspect was established by expert consensus/assessment from "clinical experts" on the "clinical acceptability" (pass/fail) of the reconstructed panoramic images.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- The document does not provide any information about the sample size used for the training set for the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- The document does not provide any information about how the ground truth for the training set was established. It only describes that the architecture is a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model.

MIS Dental Implant System is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore masticatory function. When a one-stage surgical procedure is applied, the implant may be immediately loaded when good primary stability is achieved and the occlusal load is appropriate. Narrow implants (Ø3.3mm) are indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement only in the mandibular central, lateral incisor and maxillary lateral incisor regions of partially edentulous jaws, to provide support for prosthetic devices such as artificial teeth. Mandibular central and lateral incisors must be splinted if using two or more narrow implants adjacent to one another. MIS LYNX short implants are indicated for delayed loading only.
The two additional implant size offerings which are being added to the predicate MIS LYNX Conical Connection Dental Implant System (K241692), and are the subject of this submission, consist of a standard platform, 4.20 mm diameter implant and a wide platform, 5.00 mm diameter implant, each available in a 6 mm length.
The proposed implant offerings, as their predicate K241692, are root-form, bone-level, self-tapping, two-piece, screw-type implants which are intended for one- or two-stage dental implant procedures and are used in the upper or lower jaw for supporting tooth replacement to restore chewing function.
Each implant offering is provided with a compatible cover screw based on the implant platform (standard and wide). The cover screws are identical to those cleared in K241692 and are intended to be used in a two-stage surgical procedure as temporary components to the proposed endosseous implant to allow healing of the soft tissue. The cover screw is screwed into the implant's internal thread and the gums are sutured over the cover screw. The cover screw's purpose is to let the osseointegration begin without any forces being applied to the implant. After a healing period, the cover screw is exposed and is then removed and replaced by either a healing cap or an abutment.
The implants and cover screws are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI complying with standard ASTM F136-13 - Standard Specification for Wrought Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) Alloy for Surgical Implant).
The proposed implants feature an outer profile which has a coronal section which is cylindrical and an apical section which is conical. The outer threads are designed so the implant has a self-drilling property. The implant's geometric design includes a dual thread feature and spiral channels (flutes) stemming from the apex. These spiral channels are designed to enable insertion torque reduction when applying reverse torque. The proposed implant design also includes circumferential grooves at the coronal area which are called "micro-rings". These horizontal micro-rings are designed to increase the BIC (Bone to Implant Contact) of the implant with the bone. The proposed implants feature a round (cylindrical) neck.
The proposed MIS LYNX Conical Connection Implants have a conical connection with an anti-rotation index of six positions and an internal thread for cover screws, screw-retained abutments and screwed healing caps. The implant-abutment connection surface of the proposed implants is anodized for color coding purposes to indicate the platform: purple for standard platform implants, and green for wide platform implants. The cover screws are also anodized for platform color coding.
The proposed implants are packaged in either a dry or wet package. Implants packaged in the wet packaging configuration are packaged in NaCl solution and are not anodized. The liquid environment is intended to maintain the super-hydrophilic (contact angle exhibited by water in contact with the surface is equal to zero degrees) property of the proposed dental implants until the implants are installed in patients.
This 510(k) clearance letter pertains to an Endosseous Dental Implant System, which is a physical medical device, not a software-driven AI device. Therefore, the concepts of acceptance criteria, study data, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, ground truth establishment for AI models, and training set sizes are not applicable to the information provided.
The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than proving performance against specific acceptance criteria in the context of an AI-driven system. The "acceptance criteria" here are implicitly the standards and performance levels demonstrated by the predicate and reference devices, as well as relevant ISO and ASTM standards.
Here's an analysis of the provided information, framed as closely as possible to your request, but acknowledging the device type:
Device: MIS LYNX Conical Connection Implant System
This device is an endosseous dental implant system, a physical medical device. The FDA clearance is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, not on the performance of an AI algorithm. Therefore, many of the requested fields related to AI model evaluation are not applicable.
Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The acceptance criteria are generally understood to be compliance with relevant international and national standards for dental implants, and performance comparable to or exceeding established predicate/reference devices.
Table of Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from testing) and Reported Device Performance:
Acceptance Criteria (Inferred) | Reference Standard / Basis | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|

MR Safety (RF Induced Heating Simulation) | Computational modeling and simulation (CM&S) | Leveraged from predicate (K241692), device is labeled MR Conditional. |
Surface Area (Bone Contact) | CAD Software Analysis | "the implant surface area and initial bone-to-implant contact area calculations, simulating the recommended surgical drilling protocol in a CAD model, is equivalent between proposed and reference (K180282) implants of the same length and diameter." |
Biocompatibility | N/A - Leveraged from predicate | "additional biocompatibility... testing was not necessary to demonstrate substantial equivalence of the proposed device" due to identical materials and manufacturing processes. |
Sterilization | N/A - Leveraged from predicate | "additional... sterilization... testing was not necessary" due to identical processes. |
Package and Shelf life | N/A - Leveraged from predicate | "additional... package and shelf life testing was not necessary" due to identical materials and processes. |
Regarding the other requested information (primarily relevant to AI/Software-as-a-Medical-Device):
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. The testing done was laboratory-based mechanical and MR safety testing, not evaluation of an AI model with a clinical test set. The implant dimensions analyzed for surface area were "smallest implant length (6 mm) and diameter (4.20 mm)" for proposed and reference devices. Pull-out testing and fatigue testing would have involved a number of physical samples per test, but specific quantities are not detailed in this summary.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth as typically understood for AI (e.g., expert labels on medical images) is not relevant here. The "ground truth" for mechanical testing is established by physical measurements and engineering principles.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
-
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 is a physical dental implant, not an AI assistance system for human readers.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): For mechanical properties, the "ground truth" is derived from established engineering test methods and their performance metrics (e.g., load at failure, cycles to failure). For MR safety, it's compliance with established safety limits for magnetic fields.
-
The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. There is no AI model or training set mentioned.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
In summary: The provided document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for a conventional physical medical device (dental implant system). The evaluation and clearance process for such devices involve demonstrating safety and effectiveness by showing substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed devices, typically through non-clinical (laboratory) testing, materials characterization, and compliance with recognized standards. The concepts and terminology in your request are largely tailored to the evaluation of AI/Machine Learning-driven medical devices, which is not what this document addresses.

Permanent obturation of root canals of the secondary dentition in combination with root canal points.
AH Plus Endodontic Sealer is a two-component paste-paste permanent root canal sealer based on epoxyamine resin. It is available in two delivery forms: AH Plus Endodontic Sealer in tubes, for an easy manual mix, or as AH Plus Jet Endodontic Sealer double-barrel syringe with a disposable mixing tip for intraoral use, offering a more precise, convenient, and faster procedure. It functions as part of the endodontic treatment, allowing for restoration of tooth integrity. It adapts closely to the walls of the prepared root canal and presents permanent sealing ability and radiopacity. AH Plus Endodontic Sealer does not stain teeth.
This document is a 510(k) summary for the AH Plus Endodontic Sealer. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting a study proving device performance against specific acceptance criteria in the context of an AI-powered diagnostic device.
Therefore, many of the requested categories for AI/digital health devices are not directly applicable or are not explicitly detailed in this type of submission for a traditional medical device like an endodontic sealer.
However, I can extract the information related to performance testing as described for this device, specifically those aspects that function as "acceptance criteria" for the device's physical properties.
Acceptance Criteria and Study for AH Plus Endodontic Sealer (K243546)

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
This information is not provided in the document. The document describes non-clinical bench testing, not a clinical study involving patients or data provenance in that sense.
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)
This is not applicable as the ground truth for the performance tests (radiopacity, solubility, etc.) is established by the physical and chemical properties measured against the ISO standard, not by expert interpretation.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This is not applicable. The "test set" here refers to samples of the device material undergoing physical and chemical tests, not diagnostic cases requiring 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
This is not applicable. This is a submission for an endodontic sealer, which is a physical material, not an AI-powered diagnostic device. No human reader or AI assistance is involved.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This is not applicable. This device is not an algorithm or software.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
The "ground truth" for the performance tests is the specified limits and methodologies defined within the ISO 6876:2012 standard for dentistry-root canal sealing materials. For biocompatibility, the ground truth is adherence to the specified ISO 10993 series and USP standards.
8. The sample size for the training set
This is not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI model. There is no concept of a "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
This is not applicable.

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain the detailed information necessary to answer your request about acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them. The document is an FDA 510(k) summary for a dental device (Lucitone Digital Print Denture™ System) that describes the device, its indications for use, and a few performance tests.
Specifically, the following information is not present in the text:
- A comprehensive table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance. While some performance metrics are listed (Flexural Strength, Flexural Modulus, Water Sorption, Water Solubility), these are general and not presented as specific acceptance criteria with corresponding performance test results. For example, for "Flexural Strength," it only states "≥50 MPa" as the acceptance criterion, but it does not report the actual performance value obtained for the subject device.
- Sample size used for the test set and data provenance. The document only mentions "In all instances, the subject device functioned as intended and all test results observed were as expected," without providing details about the test set.
- Number of experts used to establish ground truth and their qualifications.
- Adjudication method.
- If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, or the effect size of human improvement with AI assistance. This device is a denture system, not an AI or diagnostic tool, so an MRMC study is highly unlikely to be relevant.
- If a standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) study was done. This is not applicable to a physical dental device.
- The type of ground truth used. This is not applicable in the context of a physical materials performance study.
- Sample size for the training set. This is not applicable as it's not an AI model.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established. This is not applicable as it's not an AI model.
The document mainly focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through non-clinical performance data (material properties) and biocompatibility, rather than a clinical study evaluating diagnostic or treatment efficacy that would typically involve test sets, ground truth, and expert adjudication. The "Performance Data" section explicitly states, "Clinical and Pre-clinical testing were not necessary to demonstrate equivalence."

MIS Dental Implant System is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore masticatory function. When a one-stage surgical procedure is applied, the implant may be immediately loaded when good primary stability is achieved and the occlusal load is appropriate. Narrow implants (Ø3.3mm) are indicated for use in surgical and restorative applications for placement only in the mandibular central, lateral incisor and maxillary lateral incisor regions of partially edentulous jaws, to provide support for prosthetic devices such as artificial teeth. Mandibular central and lateral incisors must be splinted if using two or more narrow implants adjacent to one another.
The proposed MIS LYNX Conical Connection Dental Implants are intended for one- or two-stage dental implant procedures and are used in the upper or lower jaw for supporting tooth replacement to restore chewing function. The proposed dental implants have an internal conical connection with an anti-rotation index of six positions for standard and wide platforms and four positions for narrow platform. The proposed implants and cover screw are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6A1-4V ELI complying with standard ASTM F136-13 - Standard Specification for Wrought Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) Alloy for Surgical Implant). The 3.3 mm diameter size implant is available in 10, 11.5, 13, and 16 mm lengths while the 3.75, 4.2, and 5.0 mm diameter size implants are available in 8, 10, 11.5, 13, and 16 mm lengths. The proposed implants feature an outer profile which has a coronal half which is cylindrical and an apical half which is conical. The threads are designed so the implant has a self-drilling property. The geometric design also includes spiral channels (flutes) stemming from the apex. These spiral channels are designed to enable insertion torque reduction when applying reverse torque. The proposed implant design also includes circumferential grooves at the coronal area which are called "micro-rings". These horizontal micro-rings are designed to increase the BIC (Bone to Implant Contact) of the implant with the bone. The proposed implants also feature a triangular neck ("V-Cut''). The gaps around the sides of the implant neck are designed to result in an open, compression free zone. The implant-abutment connection surface of the proposed MIS LYNX Conical Connection Implant is anodized for color coding to indicate the platform: yellow for narrow platform implants, purple for standard platform implants, and green for wide platform implants. The proposed implants are packaged in either a dry or wet package. Implants packaged in the wet packaging configuration are packaged in NaCl solution and are not anodized. The liquid environment is intended to maintain the super-hydrophilic (contact angle exhibited by water in contact with the surface is equal to zero degrees) property of the proposed dental implants until the implants are installed in the patients. Cover screws are intended to be used in a two-stage surgical procedure as temporary components to the proposed endosseous implant to allow healing of the soft tissue. They are inserted into the implant and the gums are sutured over it. Their purpose is to let the osseointegration begin without any forces being applied to the implant. After a healing period, the cover screw is exposed and removed, and replaced by either a healing cap or an abutment. The cover screws are also anodized for color coding.
The provided document is a 510(k) Summary for the MIS LYNX Conical Connection Implant System. It details the device, its intended use, and a comparison to predicate devices, focusing on demonstrating substantial equivalence through non-clinical testing.
However, the document does not describe a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria based on clinical performance or an AI/algorithm-driven component. Instead, it focuses on non-clinical testing (fatigue, biocompatibility, sterilization, shelf-life, and MRI compatibility) to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the dental implant system itself, relative to predicate devices. There is no mention of an AI component, human-in-the-loop study, or any performance metrics like accuracy, sensitivity, or specificity that would be typical for an AI-driven medical device.
The section titled "8. Clinical Tests Summary and Conclusion" explicitly states: "Not applicable. There are no clinical tests submitted, referenced, or relied on in the 510(k) for a determination of substantial equivalence."
Therefore, based solely on the provided text, I cannot generate a response that fulfills the request for acceptance criteria and study details related to an AI/algorithm's performance because such information is not present in the document. The device in question is a dental implant system, not a software device that would typically have acceptance criteria focused on AI performance metrics.
To directly answer your prompt, given the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
Not applicable. The document describes non-clinical testing for a dental implant system, not performance metrics for an AI/algorithm. The "acceptance criteria" for the non-clinical tests are implied as meeting the standards (e.g., ISO 14801:2016 for fatigue, ISO 10993 series for biocompatibility) and demonstrating equivalence or superiority to predicate devices. For example, "Fatigue testing... confirms that the proposed device is similar or exceeds performance when compared to the predicate device (K172505) and reference (K112162) devices." And "Test results met acceptance criteria" for shelf-life testing. However, specific numerical acceptance criteria and reported performance values for each of these tests are not provided in a table format within this summary.
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance:
Not applicable for an AI test set. The document refers to samples used for non-clinical tests (e.g., implants for fatigue testing, materials for biocompatibility). Specific sample sizes are not detailed, but the tests are conducted on representative devices. Data provenance is implied as being from the manufacturer's internal testing as part of the 510(k) submission.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
Not applicable. This is not an AI/imaging device requiring expert ground truth for interpretation.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
Not applicable.
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 is not an AI-assisted diagnostic device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. This device does not have an algorithm providing standalone performance.
7. The type of ground truth used:
Not applicable.
8. The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable. There is no mention of a training set as this is not an AI/machine learning device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
Not applicable.

The Endo Tabletop consists of a motorized endodontic handpiece for root canal cleaning and preparation. In addition, some models may also incorporate an electronic apex locator that assists the operator to locate the file tip in the root canal. The Endo Tabletop is intended solely for use by trained dental professionals on patients that need root canal treatment.
The Endo Tabletop is designed to drive dental endodontic instruments for a rotating treatment of root canals. Therefore, the Endo Tabletop provides different kinds of movement:
- Continuous rotary motions (adjustable speed, torque and direction depending on the file used)
- Reciprocating motions (speed, torque, direction, and angles depending on the file used)
This functionality is provided by a Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor having speed and torque controls. The motor speed control is driven by a dedicated controller using pulse width modulation (PWM) of the excitation voltage and the motor torque control is performed by controlling and limiting the maximum current flow. The contra-angle transmits the motor movement in speed and direction to the endodontic file.
The user can set the device by a graphical user interface on a 7" touch Thin-Film Transistor (TFT) display. The handpiece can be started/ stopped with a finger switch and foot control.
All models can also be used for root canal length determination using the integrated apex locator functionality. This apex locator functionality is provided by evaluating the electical impedance between to the file clamp, placed into the dental root canal and the lip clip placed on the patient. The results of this estimation must be confirmed by standardized diagnostic imaging like an X-ray.
The proposed apex locator function has two modes standalone mode. In standalone mode, the apex determination works with the lip and the endodontic file, which is connected to a file clamp. In combined mode, the apex determination works with the lip clip and the endodontic file which is connected to the contra-angle.
This is a 510(k) summary for a dental handpiece with an apex locator. The document does not contain the specific acceptance criteria and detailed study results in the format requested.
Here's an analysis based on the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not provide a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance with specific numerical values for metrics like accuracy, precision, or other quantitative measures typically found in performance studies. Instead, it lists various standards and guidance documents that the device's testing complied with. For example, it states:
- "All testing to the applicable elements of the standard passed." (referring to ISO 14457:2017)
- "Results confirm that the design inputs, function, and performance specifications for the proposed device are met."
- "performance data support the conclusion that the proposed device performs as well as the predicate device EndoPilot2 (K202906)."
This implies that the device met the requirements outlined in these standards, but the specific performance data against those requirements is not detailed in this summary.
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 specify the sample size used for any of the performance tests (e.g., how many devices were tested for endurance, how many measurements were taken for the apex locator accuracy). It also does not mention the data provenance in terms of country of origin or whether studies were retrospective or prospective.
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)
This section is not applicable as there is no mention of a human-read or expert-adjudicated test set in the document. The testing described focuses on mechanical, electrical, software, and biocompatibility performance of the device and does not involve human interpretation or classification of medical images/data.
4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This section is not applicable as there is no mention of a human-read or expert-adjudicated test set in the document.
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
This section is not applicable. The device described is a dental handpiece and electronic apex locator, which are physical tools, not AI-driven diagnostic software that would typically be involved in MRMC studies to assess human reader improvement. The document explicitly states, "There are no clinical tests submitted, referenced or relied on in the 510(k) for a determination of substantial equivalence."
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
The device is not an algorithm, so the concept of standalone algorithm performance does not directly apply. However, the performance of the apex locator functionality (e.g., its accuracy in determining file tip position) would be considered part of its standalone performance. The document states:
- "The apex location is the same, at ≤ 0.5 mm." This refers to the accuracy of the apex locator functionality compared to the predicate device.
- "File performance (speed/torque) is determined by the system consisting of contra-angle and motor together."
- Various non-clinical tests were conducted to confirm the performance, including those conforming to ISO 14457:2017.
While specific numerical results beyond "≤ 0.5 mm" for apex location are not provided in this summary, the mentioned tests represent the standalone performance evaluation of the device's functions.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
For the apex locator, the "ground truth" would likely be established through a reference method, such as direct measurement on extracted teeth validated by X-ray or micro-CT, or comparison to a clinically accepted gold standard. The document mentions: "The results of this estimation must be confirmed by standardized diagnostic imaging like an X-ray." However, it does not explicitly state how the "≤ 0.5 mm" accuracy was determined or what the ground truth method was for the performance testing.
For other aspects like mechanical, electrical, and biocompatibility testing, the "ground truth" is defined by the requirements of the relevant international standards (e.g., ISO 14457:2017, IEC 60601 series, ISO 10993 series).
8. The sample size for the training set
This section is not applicable as the device is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
This section is not applicable as the device is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.
