    AI/ML Overview

    The provided 510(k) summary for DESS Dental Smart Solutions focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices for dental implant abutments. It primarily addresses the expansion of compatible materials, scanners, CAM software, and milling machines within an existing digital dentistry workflow. The document does not describe an AI/ML-based device that would typically have acceptance criteria related to diagnostic performance.

    Therefore, many of the requested items related to AI/ML device performance (like acceptance criteria for diagnostic metrics, sample size for test sets, data provenance, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and training set details) are not applicable to this submission.

    The acceptance criteria and supporting "study" (non-clinical data) for this device are related to its mechanical performance, biocompatibility, and integration within the digital workflow, demonstrating that the expanded components maintain the safety and effectiveness of the previously cleared predicate devices.

    Here's a breakdown based on the information provided and the non-applicability of AI/ML-specific questions:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    Since this is not an AI/ML diagnostic device, the acceptance criteria are not in terms of traditional diagnostic metrics (sensitivity, specificity, AUC). Instead, they are related to material properties, mechanical integrity, and the digital workflow's accuracy.

    Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance (Summary from Submission)
    Mechanical Integrity / Compatibility- Fatigue testing of OEM implant bodies with patient-specific abutments made at worst-case angled conditions. (Implies successful completion to similar or better standards than predicate.)
    Biocompatibility- Biocompatibility testing according to ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-12. (Implies successful demonstration of biocompatibility.)
    Sterilization- Sterilization validation according to ISO 17665-1, ISO 17665-2, and ISO 14937. (Implies successful validation for sterilization.)
    CAD Design Restrictions- Software verification included testing of restrictions that prevent design of components outside of the stated design parameters. - Abutment design library validated to demonstrate established design limitations are locked and cannot be modified by the user. (Implies successful implementation and verification of design constraints.)
    CAM Restriction Zones / Manufacturing Accuracy- Validation testing of CAM restriction zones conducted, including verification to show avoidance of damage or modifications of the connection geometry, and locking of restriction zones from user editing in CAM software. (Implies successful validation to ensure manufacturing precision and prevent damage.)
    Material Conformance- Zirconia materials conform to ISO 6872. - Titanium alloy conforms to ASTM F136. - Co-Cr-Mo alloy conforms to ASTM F15337. (Implies materials meet standards.)
    Physical Dimensions- Device encompasses the same range of physical dimensions as the predicate device. (Implies dimensional equivalence.)

    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 in terms of a "test set" for diagnostic performance. The validation involved physical testing of components (e.g., fatigue testing) and software verification. The specific number of abutments or digital design instances used for these non-clinical tests is not detailed in this summary.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of patient data for an AI/ML device. The "data" here refers to engineering and material testing results, likely conducted in controlled lab environments (implied to be in accordance with international standards like ISO and ASTM). The manufacturer is Terrats Medical SL, in Spain, so testing would likely originate from their facilities or contracted labs.

    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)

    Not applicable. This is not a diagnostic device requiring expert interpretation for ground truth. The "ground truth" for this device relates to engineering specifications and material science.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

    Not applicable. This is not a diagnostic device involving expert review 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

    Not applicable. This device is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

    For this device, the "ground truth" is based on:

    • Engineering Specifications: Defined design parameters (e.g., minimum wall thickness, post height, angulation limits).
    • Material Standards: Conformance to international standards such as ASTM F136, ISO 6872.
    • Benchmarking/Predicate Equivalence: Performance is assessed against established performance of the predicate devices and OEM implant systems.
    • Software Validation Logic: Verification that software correctly enforces design rules and CAD/CAM restrictions.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This device does not involve a machine learning training set.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

    Not applicable. This device does not involve a machine learning training set.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for DESS Dental Smart Solutions, which are dental implant abutments. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving a device's effectiveness through clinical performance studies with specific statistical acceptance criteria for accuracy, sensitivity, or specificity.

    Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested regarding:

    • A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance (in terms of clinical metrics like accuracy, sensitivity, specificity).
    • Sample size used for the test set or its provenance.
    • Number of experts used to establish ground truth or their qualifications.
    • Adjudication method for the test set.
    • Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study or its effect size.
    • Standalone (algorithm only) performance.
    • Type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data).
    • Sample size for the training set.
    • How the ground truth for the training set was established.

    The study described in this document focuses on non-clinical performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence, specifically:

    1. Sterilization validation: According to ISO 17665-1, ISO 17665-2, and ISO 14937.
    2. Biocompatibility testing: According to ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-12.
    3. Fatigue testing and reverse engineering analysis: Of OEM implant bodies, OEM abutments, and OEM abutment screws to confirm compatibility. This includes fatigue testing of OEM implant bodies with patient-specific abutments made at worst-case angled conditions.
    4. MR Conditional labeling.
    5. Validation testing of CAM restriction zones: Including verification to show avoidance of damage or modifications of the connection geometry, and locking of restriction zones from user editing in the CAM software.
    6. Software verification: Included testing of restrictions that prevent design of components outside of the stated design parameters. The abutment design library was validated to demonstrate that established design limitations and specifications are locked and cannot be modified by the user.

    The acceptance criteria and reported "performance" for this submission are based on these engineering and design validations, ensuring the device meets safety and performance standards equivalent to the predicate device, K221301. The key "performance" metrics are about maintaining physical and material integrity and compatibility.

    The core of the submission is to expand the DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutment system to:

    • Allow design using AbutmentCAD software (in addition to 3Shape software).
    • Add angulation (up to 30°) to some Pre-milled (Blank) Abutments for specific implant systems.

    The document explicitly states: "No clinical data were included in this submission." and "The subject device, the predicate device, and reference devices have the same intended use, technological characteristics, and are materials. The subject device, the predicate device, and reference devices encompass the same range of physical dimensions, manufactured by similar methods, are packaged in similar materials, and are to be sterilized using similar methods. The data included in this submission demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices listed above."

    Therefore, this FDA submission is for a physical medical device (dental implant abutment) and its manufacturing/design software modifications, not an AI or diagnostic device that would involve clinical performance metrics like sensitivity or specificity.

    Intended Use

    DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutments are intended to be used in conjunction with endosseous dental implants in the maxillary or mandibular arch to provide support for prosthetic restorations.

    All digitally designed custom abutments for use with DESS Ti Base abutments or Pre-Milled Blank abutments are to be sent to a Terrats Medical validated milling center for manufacture.

    Device Description

    The purpose of this submission is to add components to the DESS Dental Smart Solutions system, which includes dental implants, abutments, and prosthetic components cleared previously in various submissions. The previously cleared abutments and prosthetic components are compatible with a variety of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) dental implants as well as DESS Dental Smart Solutions dental implants.

    This submission adds various abutments to the DESS and OEM implant lines as summarized on the following pages in Table 1 Summary of Subject Device Abutment Designs, and Table 2 Summary of Subject Device Abutment Sizes.

    The subject device abutment designs include Cover Screws, Healing Abutments, Temporary Abutments, Ti Base Abutments, AURUM Base Abutments (Ti Base abutments with a screw channel design that allows easier instrument access to the abutment screw), CoCr Base Abutments, Pre-Milled Blank Abutments, Multi-Unit Abutments (straight and angled), DESSLoc Abutments (Locator-type abutments), and abutment screws.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) summary for the DESS Dental Smart Solutions, a line of endosseous dental implant abutments. It details the device's characteristics, intended use, and a comparison to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence.

    Based on the provided text, the device itself is a physical medical device (dental implant abutments and associated components), not a software or AI-driven system. Therefore, the questions related to AI acceptance criteria, training/test sets, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, and ground truth establishment for AI would not be directly applicable to this product as described.

    The document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices through:

    • Identical Intended Use: The device is intended for "functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous mandible or maxilla" by providing support for prosthetic restorations, which is the same as the predicate devices.
    • Similar Technological Characteristics: The device utilizes similar designs, materials (Ti-6Al-4V, Co-Cr-Mo alloy), manufacturing processes, and sterilization methods as its predicates.
    • Performance Data: Non-clinical testing (mechanical testing per ISO 14801, MR environment assessment) and comparison to existing data from predicate devices are used to demonstrate safety and effectiveness.

    Therefore, many of the requested elements for describing AI acceptance criteria and studies are not present or applicable in this document.

    However, I can extract information relevant to the device's performance assessment and criteria for its type of submission.

    Here's an attempt to answer the questions based solely on the provided text, acknowledging that the nature of the device (a physical implant component) means many AI-specific questions will be answered as "Not Applicable" (N/A):

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    The document does not explicitly state quantifiable "acceptance criteria" in a table format with corresponding "reported device performance" metrics for this specific 510(k) submission. Instead, it relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices.

    The underlying "acceptance criteria" for demonstrating substantial equivalence for this device type are primarily through:

    • Mechanical Testing (ISO 14801): This is a critical performance standard for dental implants and abutments. The document states that mechanical testing was "conducted according to ISO 14801 to support the performance." The acceptance criteria would be successful completion of these tests, demonstrating the device's mechanical strength and fatigue resistance are comparable to or better than predicate devices. The reported performance is simply that the tests supported the performance.
    • Material Conformance: Materials must conform to specific ASTM standards (e.g., ASTM F136 for Ti-6Al-4V, ASTM F1537 for Co-Cr-Mo). The reported performance is that the materials conform to these standards.
    • Biocompatibility: While not detailed in this excerpt, the mention of "biocompatibility" in relation to predicates implies conformance to relevant biocompatibility standards (e.g., ISO 10993 series). The reported performance is that it is compatible.
    • Sterilization Validation: Demonstrated sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶ via validated methods (moist heat or gamma irradiation). The reported performance is that validation was performed and met this SAL.
    • Dimensional Compatibility: The abutments must fit the corresponding OEM implants correctly. The reported performance is that reverse engineering dimensional analysis confirmed compatibility.

    Due to the nature of the document being a 510(k) summary focusing on substantial equivalence rather than a full study report, specific numerical performance results for the device tests are not provided in this text.

    2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance

    • Sample Size for Mechanical Testing: The document states "mechanical testing conducted according to ISO 14801." For such tests, ISO 14801 typically specifies minimum sample sizes (e.g., 10-11 samples for static strength, typically more for fatigue). The exact number of samples used for this specific submission is not explicitly stated, but it would have followed the standard's requirements.
    • Data Provenance: The mechanical testing and material analyses are assumed to be "non-clinical data submitted or referenced" by the manufacturer, Terrats Medical SL, based in Barcelona, Spain. The "reverse engineering dimensional analysis" was done by Terrats Medical SL or through contractual agreement. This is prospective testing performed to support the 510(k). The document itself does not specify the country of origin for the underlying OEM implant data used for reverse engineering, although the OEM companies are listed (e.g., Astra Tech AB, BioHorizons).

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    N/A. This is a physical device. Ground truth, in the context of AI, refers to validated labels for data used to train and test an algorithm. For a physical device, performance is evaluated through engineering and biocompatibility testing against defined standards. There are no "experts" establishing ground truth in the AI sense. Testing would be performed by qualified engineers and technicians.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

    N/A. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies involving interpretation (e.g., by radiologists) to resolve discrepancies. This document describes non-clinical performance testing of a physical device.

    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

    N/A. This product is a dental implant abutment, not an AI software intended to assist human readers.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    N/A. This is a physical device, not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

    N/A. For engineering tests of physical devices, the "ground truth" is typically derived from established engineering principles, international standards (e.g., ISO 14801 for mechanical properties, ASTM for materials), and the physical properties of the materials and designs themselves. There isn't "expert consensus" or "pathology" in the AI or clinical trials sense.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    N/A. This is a physical device; there's no "training set" in the machine learning sense. The device is manufactured based on established engineering designs and material specifications.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

    N/A. No training set for AI. For device manufacturing, the "ground truth" for design and production parameters comes from established engineering best practices, prior successful device designs (predicate devices), and adherence to quality systems regulations (21 CFR Part 820).

    Device Description

    External Hex implants are fully-threaded, tapered, root-form dental implants with an external hexagonal abutment interface, and are threaded internally for attachment of mating multiple-unit abutments, cover screws, or healing abutments. The External Hex implants have a Co-Axis design with the prosthetic platform angled at 36° and 24° (inclined) from orthogonal to the long axis of the implant.

    Additionally, the External Hex implants are provided in two configurations, regular surface and MSC surface implants. The regular surface implants are fully roughened excluding a machined collar at the coronal aspect of the implant. The MSC surface implants have an extended length of machined area at the coronal aspect of the implant, with the remaining implant length being roughened.

    The implants subject to this submission are the External Hex IBR36d and IBR24d implant range. The reduced platform MSC-IBR24d implants are only provided as Co-Axis implants, in both the regular surface and MSC surface configuration. The reduced platform IBR36d implants are only provided as Co-Axis implants, in regular surface configuration. The IBR36d implants are available in two body configurations depending on the implant length.

    The IBR36d implants of overall lengths 8.5 mm to 18 mm have a major body diameter of 4.20 mm tapering to 2.60 mm. The IBR36d implants of overall lengths 20 mm to 24 mm have a major body diameter of 4.20 mm tapering to 2.00 mm. Both the IBR24d and MSC-IBR24d implants of overall lengths 20 mm have a major body diameter 4.07 mm tapering to 2.60 mm. All of the subject device implants utilize the same prosthetic connection, previously cleared in K163634.

    All External Hex implants are manufactured from unalloyed titanium (cold-worked, grade 4, UTS ≥ 900 MPa). The MSC-IBR24d implants have a smooth machined surface of length 3 mm extending parallel from the implant prosthetic platform for all implant lengths. The remainder of the implant is grit-blasted with aluminum oxide particles to provide a surface roughness of 1-2 um. The subject device implant material and surface are identical to those of the implants cleared in K163634.

    The IBR36d and IBR24d External Hex implants are provided with a dedicated pre-mounted fixture mount of 36° and 24 respectively, similar to that provided with the other Co-Axis External Hex implants cleared in K163634.

    All of the subject device implants utilize the same prosthetic connection, previously cleared in K163634 for the External Hex IBR24d and MSC-IBR24d implants. The External Hex implants are used in conjunction with the same abutments cleared for use with the External Hex IBR24d implants (implants cleared in K163634). These abutments are cleared in K053478, K070841, K093562, and K163634. The components that are compatible with the External Hex implants include Cover Screw, Healing Abutment, and Compact Conical Abutments. The Compact Conical Abutments are compatible with Temporary Titanium Abutment Cylinders, Gold Abutment Cylinders, and Passive Abutments.

    The subject device Co-Axis implants are indicated for use with straight multiple-unit abutments with a 0° allowable restoration angle, only. This includes restricting straight abutments, that can be restored on a multi-unit abutment, that have an allowable restoration angle of up to 20° associated with them, so that they may only have a restoration angle of 0°. Thus, all the possible compatible abutments will have a 0° allowable restoration angle.

    All External Hex implants are provided sterile to the end-user in a single-unit package, and are for single-patient, single-use only.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes the 510(k) summary for the "External Hex Implant System" and references performance data to support its substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices. However, it does not contain explicit "acceptance criteria" for the device, nor a study design with specific performance metrics against those criteria in the way typically seen for AI/ML device evaluations.

    Instead, the document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence based on non-clinical performance data (mechanical testing and biocompatibility) and clinical literature review. The clinical literature review is used to show that similar devices with comparable characteristics (e.g., angulation, length) have proven safe and effective.

    Therefore, I cannot directly provide a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance with specific metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or AUC, as these are not defined or reported in the provided text. The "performance" discussed relates to the device's mechanical strength and the success rates of similar implants documented in clinical literature, not an AI algorithm's diagnostic performance.

    However, I can extract the relevant information regarding the studies referenced to support the device's safety and effectiveness, interpreting "acceptance criteria" as the demonstration of substantial equivalence through various assessments:

    Interpretation of "Acceptance Criteria" for this device:

    For this device, "acceptance criteria" are not quantitative performance metrics in the traditional sense for diagnostic AI. Instead, they are met by demonstrating the device's substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices through:

    • Biocompatibility: Conformance to ISO 10993-1.
    • Mechanical Performance: Conformance to ISO 14801 (static and dynamic compression-bending fatigue test), with results showing sufficient strength for intended use.
    • Sterilization: Conformance to ISO 11137-1, ISO 11137-2, and USP 39-NF 34 for bacterial endotoxin.
    • Dimensional Analysis: Verification of critical dimensions.
    • Clinical Safety and Performance (via Literature Review): Demonstrated favorable survival rates and clinical indices for comparable implants under similar conditions and specifications (length, angulation, loading protocols). This implicitly acts as an "acceptance criterion" for clinical effectiveness by showing established safety and effectiveness of similar devices.
    • MR Safety: Conformance to FDA Guidance Document "Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment" (ASTM F2503, ASTM F2013, ASTM F2182, ASTM F2119).

    Summary of Information from the Provided Text:

    1. Table of "Acceptance Criteria" (interpreted as equivalence demonstration points) and "Reported Device Performance":

    | Area of "Acceptance Criteria" (Demonstration of Equivalence) | Reported Device Performance / Evidence |
    | Biocompatibility | Evaluated according to ISO 10993-1 (referenced from K163634). |
    | Mechanical Performance (Static & Dynamic Compression-Bending) | Testing to ISO 14801 was performed on representative worst-case constructs for angulation and abutment/screw materials. Twelve (12) samples for each subject device group were subjected to fatigue testing. The fatigue limit was determined to be where a total of three (3) samples endured 5 x 10^6 cycles with no failures. Results confirmed that the strength of the subject device is sufficient for its intended use. |
    | Sterilization & Shelf Life | Sterilization according to ISO 11137-1, ISO 11137-2. Bacterial endotoxin according to USP 39-NF 34. Sterile barrier shelf life (referenced from K222457). |
    | Dimensional Analysis | Performed. (No specific values reported in this section, but implied to meet design specifications). |
    | Clinical Safety & Performance (Standard Length IBR36d) | Retrospective analysis of real-world clinical data (literature review). The literature review demonstrated that implants with lengths of 7-18mm and angulation range of 20-50° as part of a splinted approach showed similar success rates to standard implants. Survival rates and clinical indices were favorable in both maxillary and mandibular applications, with immediate and delayed loading protocols. The subject device (8.5-18mm lengths, 36° angle) falls within this "window of successful implants." |
    | Clinical Safety & Performance (Extra Length IBR36d) | Retrospective analysis of real-world clinical data (literature review). The literature review supported the use of long implants (10-25mm) placed at angles of 15-90° in the pterygoid region, showing similar success rates to standard implants. The subject device (20-24mm lengths, 36° angle) falls within this "window of successful implants." |
    | MR (Magnetic Resonance) Safety | MR safety testing (ASTM F2503, F2013, F2182, F2119) was performed on previously cleared devices (referenced from K222457). The subject devices are considered equally MR Safe as the predicate devices because they are not worst-case components in terms of material, size, or shape. |

    Device Description

    The purpose of this submission is to expand the DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutment system by a change in sterilization status to provide products sterile to the end user that were previously cleared to be provided non-sterile. The subject device abutments and abutment screws were cleared previously to be provided non-sterile to the end user in K170588, K191986, K212628, and K22288. All subject device components will now be provided sterile.

    The subject device components include Healing Abutments, Multi-Unit Abutments (0, 17°, and 30°), and abutment screws.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the DESS Dental Smart Solutions, an endosseous dental implant abutment. It details the device, its intended use, and its substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate and reference devices. However, this document does not contain the acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria in the context of an AI/ML medical device.

    The 510(k) submission for this dental abutment focuses on establishing substantial equivalence based on:

    • Design and Material: The subject device components are identical in design, material (Ti-6Al-4V alloy, DLC coating), and technological characteristics to previously cleared devices.
    • Manufacturing: The manufacturing process is consistent with previously cleared devices.
    • Biocompatibility: Referenced from previous K-clearances.
    • Sterilization: The main change in this submission is expanding the system to provide products sterile to the end-user via gamma irradiation, which was validated by referencing a previous K-clearance (K212538).
    • MR Environment Testing: Non-clinical analysis was performed to evaluate the subject devices in the MR environment, referencing published literature and FDA guidance.
    • Shelf Life Testing: Referenced from a previous K-clearance (K212538) for samples after accelerated aging.

    Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request to describe the acceptance criteria and a study proving an AI/ML device meets them based on the provided text, as this document is not about an AI/ML medical device. It's about dental implant abutments and establishes substantial equivalence through non-clinical performance data and comparison to predicate devices, not through AI/ML performance metrics.

    To provide the information you requested, I would need a document detailing the validation of an AI/ML medical device, which would include definitions of acceptance criteria (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity), details of training and test datasets, ground truth establishment, and potentially clinical effectiveness studies if applicable.

    Device Description

    MIST IC from Imagine Milling Technologies, LLC is a line of Ti-base and machinable blank abutments to interface with compatible dental implants from 3 manufacturers, a total of 14 implant-abutment interface compatibilities. The compatible implant body diameters range from 3.25 mm to 6.0 mm and the corresponding implant platform diameters range from 3.4 mm. The subject device prosthetic platform diameters range from 3.8 mm. All stock subject device components (abutments and abutment screws) are made of titanium alloy conforming to ASTM F136. The subject device MIST IC L-LINK abutments have a TiN coating achieved through a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process that is identical to the process used for TiN coating of Imagine Milling Technologies, LLC devices cleared in K 182246. The PVD cathodic arc evaporation process is a high current, low voltage process in which material evaporated from the cathode (Ti) is ionized, transported through the vacuum chamber with reactive gas (N2) and deposited as a non-porous, thin film on the titanium substrate.

    Each abutment is supplied with the non-sterile abutment screw designed for attachment to the corresponding compatible OEM implant.

    All patient-specific abutment fabrication for all MIST IC abutments is by prescription on the order of the clinician. All MIST IC abutments are intended to be milled at an Imagine Milling Technologies, LLC validated milling center under FDA quality system regulations.

    MIST IC L-LINK abutments are two-piece abutments to be used as a base when fabricating a CAD-CAM customized restoration where the superstructure produced will compose the second part of the two-piece abutment; the assembly becoming a final finished medical device after cementation on the subject device abutment. They are provided in straight designs, with engaging and non-engaging connections. The L-LNK abutments and corresponding zirconia superstructure are provided to the clinician either with the superstructure cemented to the abutment by the dental laboratory, or separately for the clinician to bond together chairside using the cement recommended in the labeling (RelyX RMGIP bonding cement, cleared in K022476).

    Design parameters for the L-LINK zirconia superstructure are: Minimum wall thickness - 0.5 mm Minimum post height for single-unit restoration - 4.0 mm Minimum gingival height of the coping - 0 mm (all L-LINK bases have minimum gingival height of 0.5 mm) Maximum gingival height – 5.0 mm Maximum angle - 20°

    All zirconia copings (superstructures) for use with the subject device MIST IC L-LINK abutments will conform to ISO 13356.

    MIST IC PREFIT abutments are cylindrical abutments designed for patient-specific abutment fabrication by a CAD-CAM process and machined into a one-piece, all titanium abutment. The portion of the abutment available for milling is either 9.9 mm in diameter by 20 mm in diameter by 20 mm in diameter by 20 mm in length. MIST IC PREFIT abutments have an engaging connection.

    Design parameters for the PREFIT patient specific abutment are: Minimum wall thickness - 0.5 mm Minimum post height for single-unit restoration - 4.0 mm Minimum gingival height - 0.5 mm Maximum gingival height - 5.0 mm Maximum angle - 30°

    Device Description

    The Panthera Dental Milled Bar is a metallic dental restorative device that is intended for attaching by screw retention to dental implants to aid in the treatment of partial and totally edentulous patients for the purpose of restoring chewing function.

    The Panthera Dental milled bars for which clearance is requested, are included in one of the following bar types, which have distinct design specifications.

    The Type I bars are specific for removable overdenture and include:

    • . Panthera Dental Dolder Bar, Hader Bar, Milled Bar, REBourke Bar and Paris Bar.

    The Type II bars are specific for fixed prostheses and include:

    • Panthera Dental Wrap-around Bar, Montreal Bar, Montreal Bar with metallic lingual, Pin Lingual Bar and Pin Wrap-Around Bar.

    The Panthera Dental Milled Bar is designed to match an individual patient. Panthera Dental designs the bar from a three-dimensional optical and/or digital scanner system that scans the patient's impression; the dental professional prepares the model cast beforehand. The designed bar is then machined using a computer-aided design/ computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) software system. The bar is milled from titanium (Ti-6AI-4V grade 5). CAD/CAM fabrication is only performed by Panthera Dental, within our manufacturing control and not by the dental laboratory.

    The Panthera Dental Milled Bar is packaged as non-sterile, and delivered to a dental laboratory for completion. Once received at the laboratory, the Panthera Dental Milled Bar is matched to a denture for final placement. The Panthera Dental Milled Bar provides retention and support for a removable or fixed denture made of standard laboratory dental materials such as resin composite.

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study information for the Panthera Dental Milled Bars, based on the provided document.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document doesn't explicitly present acceptance criteria in a tabular format with specific numerical targets. Instead, it describes performance through compliance with recognized standards and successful testing outcomes. The "performance" is primarily demonstrated through meeting mechanical strength requirements and biocompatibility standards, and by showing substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

    Acceptance Criteria CategoryDescription of Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
    Mechanical StrengthMeets the requirements for dynamic fatigue testing for endosseous dental implants.The device (bar and cylinders) has the mechanical strength for its intended clinical application, as demonstrated by fatigue testing according to ISO 14801 and FDA guidance.
    BiocompatibilityBiocompatible with tissue/bone/dentin for long-term contact.Made from Titanium Ti-6Al-4V, a material used in the predicate. Cytotoxicity, extractable/leachable, toxicological risk assessment, and bacterial endotoxin testing compliant with ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-12, ANSI/AAMI ST72, and USP <85>.
    SterilizationCan be effectively sterilized to a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10^-6.Sterilization validation (Pre-vacuum steam sterilization) for the primary predicate was successful, demonstrating an SAL of at least 10^-6. The proposed device uses the same materials and sterilization cycle, therefore no additional testing was required.
    Design Accuracy/FitEnsures a perfect fit and proper seating with compatible implant systems, with no possible interference.Reverse engineering (RE) confirmed that the critical parameters of the design for interface connection, including tolerance limits, fall within the measured sizes of the Nobel Biocare counterparts.
    Manufacturing ReliabilityManufacturing process is reliable and produces consistent results.A process capability study conducted for the primary predicate (K173466) is valid for the proposed device, as the manufacturing process is identical.

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

    • Sample Size for Test Set: The document does not specify the exact sample size for each test (e.g., how many bars were subjected to fatigue testing). It refers to "the bar itself" and "the bar cylinders" for fatigue testing. For reverse engineering, it mentions "each interface connection" and "each components per size and type" which implies multiple samples were analyzed to determine critical parameters and tolerance limits.
    • Data Provenance: The document does not specify country of origin for data. The non-clinical testing was conducted by Panthera Dental Inc., a Canadian company. The tests are framed within the context of a 510(k) submission to the U.S. FDA. The testing conducted was for the primary predicate device (K173466) and determined to be applicable to the proposed device due to identical materials and manufacturing processes. The tests were retrospective in the sense that they were done on manufactured devices/components.

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

    • Number of Experts: This information is not explicitly stated. The document refers to compliance with ISO and FDA guidance documents for testing, which implies a standard methodology rather than expert consensus on a subjective test set.
    • Qualifications of Experts: Not specified. Testing was performed by Panthera Dental Inc. or their designated testing facilities to meet recognized standards.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable. The tests mentioned (fatigue, biocompatibility, sterilization, reverse engineering, process capability) are objective physical, chemical, and mechanical tests, not subjective evaluations requiring adjudication.

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

    No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The Panthera Dental Milled Bars are a physical dental device, not an AI or imaging diagnostic tool that would typically involve a reader study.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

    Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm or software. The mention of CAD/CAM refers to the design and manufacturing process, not an independent algorithm performance.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for the device's performance is established through:

    • Compliance with recognized standards: ISO 14801 for fatigue testing, ISO 10993 series and USP <85> for biocompatibility, and ANSI/AAMI-ST8 for sterilization.
    • Measurement and verification: Reverse engineering to ensure precise fit with implant systems.
    • Predicate device equivalence: Performance data for the predicate device (K173466) is directly applied due to identical materials, design principles, and manufacturing processes.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. This is a physical medical device. There is no "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI. The design and manufacturing processes are established based on engineering principles and validated through testing.

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

    Not applicable, as there is no "training set" in the context of this device. The design specifications and manufacturing parameters are established through engineering design, material science, and testing against industry standards, not via a machine learning training process.
