Fluorcanasite is a CAD/CAM machinable glass ceramic block, batched from standard glass-making ingredients which are intended to be used by trained professionals in a dentist's office for the manufacture of all-ceramic inlays, onlays, crowns, and veneers.
The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a dental ceramic device named "Fluorcanasite Dental Ceramic" (K100794). This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than explicit acceptance criteria and performance studies in the way one might see for AI/ML devices or novel therapies.
Therefore, the study design elements typically requested for AI/ML or clinical trials (e.g., sample size for test/training sets, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, MRMC studies, standalone performance) are not applicable to this submission. The "study" here is a series of non-clinical, benchtop tests designed to characterize the material properties of the new device and compare them to a predicate device.
Here's an analysis based on the information provided, specifically addressing the criteria where applicable:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The "acceptance criteria" for a 510(k) submission are generally that the new device performs "as well as, or better than" the predicate device for relevant characteristics, demonstrating substantial equivalence. The predicate device's performance often serves as the de facto benchmark.
Characteristic | Acceptance Criteria (Implied by Predicate) | Reported Device Performance (Fluorcanasite) |
---|---|---|
Biaxial Flexural Strength | Comparable to or greater than 360 MPa (Predicate: IPS e. max CAD) | 271.3 MPa |
CTE | Comparable to 10.45 ppm/°C (Predicate: IPS e. max CAD) | 8.8 ppm/°C |
Chemical Solubility | Comparable to or less than 30-50 µg/cm² (Predicate: IPS e. max CAD) | 722 µg/cm² |
Fracture Toughness | Comparable to or greater than 2.0-2.5 MPa m1/2 (Predicate: IPS e. max CAD) | 4.2 MPa m1/2 |
Hardness | Comparable to 5.94 GPa (Predicate: IPS e. max CAD) | 5.18 GPa |
MTBS (ceramic composite) | N/A (Predicate not applicable or reported) | 27.59 MPa |
Biocompatibility | Meets ISO 10993-5 standards | Meets ISO 10993-5 standards |
Uranium Content | Low/negligible activity concentration (Specific limits not stated, but results show very low/undetectable levels) | X MPa") are often derived from recognized standards (like ISO 6872:2008) or from the predicate device's published properties. The conclusion states "Fluorcanasite performed as well as, or better than, the predicate device," which is the overall acceptance criterion for substantial equivalence. It's important to note that while some values are numerically "worse" than the predicate (e.g., lower flexural strength, higher solubility), the FDA determined substantial equivalence based on the totality of the data and the overall intended use, suggesting these differences were not deemed to raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated as a number of "samples" in a clinical human-subject sense. The non-clinical tests (Biaxial Flexural Strength, CTE, Chemical Solubility, Fracture Toughness, Hardness, MTBS, Biocompatibility, Uranium content) would have involved multiple specimens of the material as per the test methodologies (e.g., ISO standards), but the exact number of specimens is not provided.
- Data Provenance: The non-clinical testing was conducted, and the summary was prepared in the UK (Applicant address: Derbyshire, UK). The Uranium content analysis was managed under "NPL LRQA registration to ISO 9001:2000," indicating a UK National Physical Laboratory (NPL) involvement.
- Retrospective or Prospective: N/A for benchtop material testing.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
- Experts: Not applicable. Ground truth, in this context, is established by adherence to recognized international standards (e.g., ISO 6872:2008, ISO 10993-5) for material property measurements and radiochemical analysis methodologies.
- Qualifications: Not applicable for this type of submission. The qualifications would be implied by the accreditation and expertise of the laboratories conducting the standardized tests.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable. This is not a study involving subjective human interpretation that would require an adjudication method. The measurements are objective material properties.
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 a dental ceramic material, not an AI/ML diagnostic or assistive device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. This is a dental ceramic material, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- The "ground truth" for this device's performance is derived from standardized material testing methodologies (e.g., ISO 6872:2008, ISO 10993-5) and analytical chemistry techniques (for uranium content), which provide objective, measurable physical and chemical properties of the material.
- The "truth" of comparability is then assessed against the predicate device's reported properties.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is not an AI/ML device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable. There is no "training set."

This document is a premarket notification for a dental ceramic material, which is a Class II device. The submission is an "Abbreviated 510(k)" as described in FDA's guidance, meaning it primarily demonstrates substantial equivalence by providing chemical composition and certification of compliance with relevant consensus standards.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information in the format specified because the provided text does not describe any specific performance criteria, testing, or studies that would typically be associated with software or AI/ML-driven medical devices.
The key points from the provided text are:
- Device Type: Dental Ceramic blocks (material).
- Purpose: Used for inlays, onlays, veneers, and crowns with CEREC® and inLab® devices.
- Regulatory Pathway: Abbreviated 510(k), demonstrating substantial equivalence through chemical composition and compliance with consensus standards.
- No mention of AI/ML components: The device is a material, not a diagnostic or AI-powered system that would require performance studies against specific acceptance criteria.
- No mention of studies: The document states "Data provided in this submission to establish substantial equivalence includes chemical composition and certification of compliance with relevant consensus standards." This indicates a different type of evaluation than a clinical or performance study with a test set, ground truth, or expert readers.
If this were a submission for a device involving AI or software, the requested information would be crucial. However, for a dental ceramic, the regulatory requirements for demonstrating safety and effectiveness are met differently, typically through material properties testing and comparison to predicate devices, rather than clinical performance studies with specific statistical endpoints.

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Sulzer Dental Ceramic System-HexLock. It primarily focuses on comparing the new device to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence, rather than detailing a study with specific acceptance criteria and performance data in the typical sense of a clinical trial or algorithm validation.
However, based on the information provided, we can infer the "acceptance criteria" through the comparison analysis and the "study" demonstrating that the device meets these criteria is the comparison itself, which aims to show substantial equivalence.
Here's an attempt to structure the information according to your request, acknowledging the limitations of the provided text for a direct fit:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance
The core "acceptance criteria" here is that the Sulzer Dental Ceramic System-HexLock is substantially equivalent to existing, legally marketed predicate devices. The "reported device performance" is demonstrated by the comparison of its technological characteristics and intended use to these predicates.
Key Implicit Acceptance Criterion: Substantial Equivalence to predicate devices (HexLock Abutment (K953101) and FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase Abutment (K980630)).
Feature (Comparison Point) | Acceptance Criteria (Predicate Device Characteristics) | Reported Device Performance (Sulzer Dental Ceramic System-HexLock) |
---|---|---|
Intended Use | Primarily Anterior Single-Unit Restoration Cases (FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase Abutment) or broader Anterior/Posterior Single-Unit and Multi-Unit Restoration Cases (Sulzer Dental HexLock Abutment) | Intended for anterior single unit restoration cases. (Stated in 510(k) summary and recognized by FDA in clearance letter). This aligns with the FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase Abutment. |
Abutment Body Geometry | Tapered Retentive Wall (specific to the new device, but compared against Straight Retentive Wall of predicates). The acceptance is that this design is similar enough or provides comparable function. | Tapered Retentive Wall |
Abutment Diameters | 3.5mm & 4.5mm (Sulzer Dental HexLock) and 3.4mm, 3.8mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm, & 6.5mm (FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase) | 4.5mm (as a body diameter) and 3.5mm & 4.5mm for abutment/implant diameter. This falls within the range and specific sizes of the predicate devices. |
Abutment/Implant Diameter | 3.5mm & 4.5mm (Sulzer Dental HexLock) and 3.4mm, 3.8mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm, & 6.5mm (FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase) | 3.5mm & 4.5mm. This matches the Sulzer Dental HexLock and is covered by the FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase. |
Abutment Body Material | Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) (Sulzer Dental HexLock) or Pure Titanium grade II (FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase) | Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V). This is identical to one of the predicate devices. |
Implant/Abutment Interface | Hex anti-rotational interface (both predicates) | Hex anti-rotational interface. This is identical to both predicate devices. |
Ceramic Coping Material | N/A for Sulzer Dental HexLock; Aluminum Oxide for FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase | Zirconia Toughened Alumina. The document highlights this as a key differentiating feature intended to "improve esthetics." The acceptance criteria implicitly allow for material differences if safety and effectiveness are maintained, likely supported by material testing data (though not detailed here). |
Sterility | Sterile (Sulzer Dental HexLock) or Not Sterile (FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase) | Not Sterile. This aligns with one of the predicate devices. |
Overall Safety & Effectiveness | Demonstrated by substantial equivalence to predicate devices, ensuring equivalent performance regarding mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and intended clinical outcome. | FDA clearance (K014175) confirms substantial equivalence, implying the device is as safe and effective for its intended use as the predicate devices. This process typically involves demonstrating that any differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. |
Study Details:
It's important to clarify that this document is a 510(k) summary for regulatory clearance, not a research paper detailing a specific clinical study with granular data. The "study" here is implicitly the substantial equivalence comparison performed by the manufacturer and reviewed by the FDA.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Test Set Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of a traditional test set for performance parameters. The "test set" is the Sulzer Dental Ceramic System-HexLock itself, and its characteristics are compared against the established characteristics of the predicate devices.
- Data Provenance: The data provenance is from the specifications and characteristics of the new device and the predicate devices (Sulzer Dental HexLock Abutment and FRIALIT®-2 CeraBase Abutment). The manufacturing site for the new device is listed as Carlsbad, CA (USA), and for one predicate as Meinnheim, Germany. This is a retrospective comparison based on existing device specifications.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Not applicable as there is no "ground truth" expert consensus established for a test set in this 510(k) summary. The ground truth for the predicate devices' safety and effectiveness was established when they received their own regulatory clearances. For the new device, its specifications are provided by the manufacturer.
-
Adjudication method for the test set:
- Not applicable. The process is a regulatory review by the FDA (specifically the Division of Dental, Infection Control and General Hospital Devices), comparing the new device's documentation to predicate devices. It is not an adjudication based on multiple expert opinions on a specific test set.
-
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 device is a dental implant abutment and ceramic coping system, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive technology. Therefore, MRMC studies are irrelevant to this submission.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Not applicable. This is a physical medical device.
-
The type of ground truth used:
- The "ground truth" in this context refers to the established safety, effectiveness, and regulatory clearance of the predicate devices based on their inherent characteristics, testing, and clinical track record. The new device's ground truth for approval is its "substantial equivalence" to these predicates. This involves comparing engineering specifications, materials, and intended use, likely supported by bench testing (though not detailed in the summary).
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device that would require a training set.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable. No training set is involved.
