    Intended Use

    The LOCATOR Angled Abutment is indicated for the attachment of full or partial, fixed and removable restorations retained by endosseous implants to restore masticatory function for the patient.

    Device Description

    The purpose of this submission is to expand the Indications for Use of the LOCATOR® Angled Abutment product line (K243272 & K233587) by adding compatibility of existing abutments with various new dental implant systems from Implant Direct and Biohorizons. Additionally, the submission expands the Indications for Use of the product line with a modified version of the predicate device shown to be compatible with the Implant Logistics Implant-One Series 300 and Series 400 Implant Systems. The LOCATOR Angled Abutment is designed and intended for the attachment of full or partial, fixed and removable, restorations retained by endosseous implants in the mandible or maxilla, as cleared to be used with LOCATOR FIXED (K213391) and LOCATOR Attachment Systems (K072878).

    The LOCATOR Angled Abutments are manufactured from titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) and are titanium nitride (TiN) coated in various abutment heights, identical to the predicate device. The LOCATOR Angled Abutment interfacing features are provided at a 15 degree angle to allow for angle correction, substantially equivalent to the predicate device of K233587 and K243272. The abutments will be used with the accessories of the LOCATOR Implant Attachment System (retention inserts, denture attachment housing, and ancillary processing parts) and LOCATOR FIXED Attachment System (fixed inserts, denture attachment housing) for the attachment of a restoration, identical to the predicate device.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the LOCATOR® Angled Abutment, K250721. This document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device and expanding indications for use, rather than detailing a study that proves the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria for a new clinical application.

    Therefore, much of the requested information regarding study design, sample sizes, expert involvement, and ground truth establishment (which are typical for AI/ML device clearances or those requiring extensive clinical performance data) is not present in this type of regulatory submission for a dental implant abutment.

    However, based on the information provided, I can construct a table for the acceptance criteria and reported "performance" in the context of this 510(k) submission, which is primarily a demonstration of mechanical compatibility and safety rather than a clinical efficacy study.

    Here's an interpretation based on the provided text:


    Overview of Device Performance and Acceptance Criteria (as per the 510(k) Submission)

    The LOCATOR® Angled Abutment (K250721) is a dental implant abutment. The "study" proving it meets acceptance criteria in this context is a series of non-clinical tests and engineering analyses demonstrating its compatibility with various dental implant systems and confirming its mechanical properties and biocompatibility are substantially equivalent to previously cleared devices. The acceptance criteria are implicitly met by showing conformance to established standards and similarity to predicate devices.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Acceptance Criteria (Implicit)Reported Device Performance / Evidence Provided
    Material CompositionConformance to ASTM F136 for Ti-6Al-4V ELI (Titanium alloy) and presence of TiN coating.Manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI (ASTM F136 compliant) with TiN coating, "identical to the predicate device."
    Mechanical Strength & Fatigue (Worst-Case)Withstand fatigue loading per ISO 14801:2016 for tallest abutment cuff height with smallest diameter OEM implant.Fatigue testing conducted per ISO 14801:2016 for worst-case scenarios. Implicitly, the device passed. For Implant Logistics, existing 510(k) (K173701, K102822) required ISO 14801 testing, and the current design "does not create a new worst case."
    BiocompatibilityConformance to ISO 10993-1 and ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity).Biocompatibility assessed per ISO 10993-1 and ISO 10993-5, leveraging prior testing (K072878, K233587). Implicitly, the device is biocompatible.
    Packaging & Shipping IntegrityPackaging and device remain undamaged after validation testing.Packaging and shipping validation testing completed; "worst case device and packaging were undamaged."
    Cleaning & Sterilization ValidationDevice can be effectively cleaned and sterilized, identical to predicate, without creating new worst-case.Cleaning and sterilization "identical to the predicate device," leveraging prior results (K233587, K243272). Engineering analysis established no new worst-case.
    MR Compatibility (Safety in MR Environment)Conformance to ASTM standards (F2052, F2213, F2182, F2119) and FDA guidance for MR safety (Force, Torque, Heating, Image Quality).MR compatibility testing conducted per specified ASTM standards and FDA guidance on Ti-6Al-4V components with similar features, leveraging prior results. Engineering analysis showed no new worst-case.
    Implant Compatibility (Functional)Proper fit and function with specified new implant systems.Critical features and tolerances verified functionally in OEM implants through "engineering analysis" and "cooperatively with the implant manufacturer (OEM)." The design for Implant Logistics systems was made "according to the manufacturer's specifications."

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

    • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated as "sample size" in the conventional sense for a clinical trial. For physical testing (fatigue, packaging), standard engineering test specimen numbers would have been used, but these are not detailed. For material and biocompatibility, existing data was leveraged. Functional compatibility was primarily through engineering analysis.
    • Data Provenance: The data comes from in-vitro non-clinical testing and engineering analyses conducted by the manufacturer, Zest Anchors, LLC, or leveraged from previous submissions (K243272, K233587, K213391, K072878, K173701, K102822). The origin is the manufacturer's internal testing and regulatory submissions. The nature of these tests is "retrospective" in the sense that results from previous validated tests (e.g., K233587 for TiN coating, K072878 for biocompatibility) are being applied ("leveraged") to demonstrate equivalence for the current device, implying these tests were performed in the past.

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

    • Number of Experts: Not applicable. For this type of device (dental abutment) and submission (510(k) for expanded compatibility), "ground truth" is established through engineering specifications, material standards, and validated physical/mechanical testing protocols (e.g., ISO, ASTM). It does not involve human expert consensus on clinical images or patient outcomes.
    • Qualifications of Experts: N/A, as the "ground truth" is based on objective, standardized physical and material properties, confirmed by engineering analysis.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • Adjudication Method: Not applicable. This is not a study requiring human adjudication of results. Engineering and laboratory tests have objective pass/fail criteria or conformance to standards.

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

    • MRMC Study Done? No. MRMC studies are typically for AI/ML devices where human readers interpret diagnostic images. This device is a physical dental implant component.
    • Effect Size of Human Readers Improvement: Not applicable.

    6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only)

    • Standalone Performance Study Done? No. This device is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Type of Ground Truth: The "ground truth" for this device's "performance" and "acceptance" is based on:
      • Engineering specifications and drawings: Ensuring physical compatibility (e.g., fit with implants).
      • International Standards: Conformance to mechanical testing standards (ISO 14801:2016 for fatigue), material standards (ASTM F136), and biocompatibility standards (ISO 10993 series).
      • Predicate device performance: Demonstrating that the subject device's design, materials, and performance characteristics are "identical" or "substantially equivalent" to previously cleared devices.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    • Sample Size for Training Set: Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

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

    • How Ground Truth Established: Not applicable.

    Intended Use

    IPD Dental Implant Abutments are intended to be used in conjunction with endosseous dental implants in the maxillary or mandibular arch to provide support for single or multiple dental prosthetic restorations.

    Device Description

    IPD Dental Implant Abutments is a dental implant abutment system composed of dental abutments, screws, as well as other dental abutment accessories, intended to be placed into dental implants to provide support for dental prosthetic restorations.

    Abutments provide basis for single or multiple tooth prosthetic restorations. They are available in a variety of connection types to enable compatibility with commercially available dental implants systems.

    IPD Dental Implant Abutments includes the following categories of dental abutment designs:

    • Titanium base (Interface) abutments (INC3D);
    • Multi-Unit abutments (MUA);
    • Overdenture Abutments (PSD);
    • Temporary Abutments (PP);
    • Healing Abutments (TC).

    The system also includes the use of the corresponding screws intended to attach the prosthesis to the dental implant. Specifically:

    • Ti Screw (TT): Used during restoration fabrication.
    • TiN Screw (TTN): Used in finished restorations, with TiN coating.
    • TPA Screw (TPA): Used in finished angulated restorations, with TiN coating.

    The metallic components of the subject abutments and screws are made of titanium alloy conforming to ISO 5832-3 "Implant for surgery – Metallic materials – Part 3: Wrought titanium 6-aluminium 4-vanadium alloy".

    The purpose of this submission is to expand IPD Dental Implant Abutments offerings with:
    • New IPD's compatible dental implant systems,
    • New angulations available abutment-category specific.
    • New in-house TiN coating.

    IPD dental implant abutments and screws are compatible with the following commercially available dental implant systems:
    (Table 2. Summary of IPD abutments categories with compatibilized OEM Implant/Abutment Systems with specific reference to maximum angulation specifically included in this submission. provided in original text)

    Ti Base (Interface) abutments are attached (screw-retained) to the implant/abutment and cemented to the zirconia superstructure.

    The Ti Base is a two-piece abutment composed of the titanium component, as the bottom-half, and the zirconia superstructure, as the top-half. It consists of a pre-manufactured prosthetic component in Titanium alloy per ISO 5832-3, as well as the supporting digital library file for FDA-cleared design software (3Shape Abutment Designer™ Software, cleared under K151455) which enables the design of a patient-specific superstructure by the laboratory/clinician and which will be manufactured in FDA-cleared Zirconia (e.g., DD Bio Z, K142987) according to digital dentistry workflow at the point of care, or at a dental laboratory.

    The design and fabrication of the zirconia superstructure for Ti Base (Interface) will be conducted using a digital dentistry workflow requiring the use of the following equipment, software and materials:
    Scanner: 3D Scanner D850.
    Design Software: 3Shape Abutment Designer Software, K151455.
    Zirconia Material: DD Bio Z, K142987.
    Milling machine/Brand: Dental Concept System Model: DC1 Milling System.
    Cement: Multilink® Automix, K123397.

    Ti Base (Interface) abutment design parameters for the zirconia superstructure are defined as follows:
    Minimum gingival height: 1.5 mm
    Minimum wall thickness: 0.43 mm
    Minimum post height for single-unit restorations: 4.75 mm (1)
    Maximum gingival height: 6.0 mm
    Maximum angulation of the final abutment 30° (2)

    The resulting final prosthetic restoration is screwed to the dental implant. All subject abutments are single-use and provided non-sterile. Final restoration (which includes the corresponding screw) is intended to be sterilized at the dental clinic before it is placed in the patient.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter pertains to IPD Dental Implant Abutments, a medical device, not an AI/ML-driven software product. Therefore, the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and study data for an AI/ML device (e.g., sample size for test/training sets, expert ground truthing, MRMC studies, standalone performance) is not applicable to this document.

    The document describes the device, its intended use, comparison to predicate devices, and the non-clinical performance testing conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence. These tests are physical and chemical in nature, not related to the performance of an AI/ML algorithm.

    Here's a breakdown of why an AI/ML-focused response is not possible, based on the provided text:

    • Device Type: The device is "IPD Dental Implant Abutments," which are physical components used in dentistry (titanium alloy abutments, screws, designed for zirconia superstructures). It is not software, a diagnostic imaging tool, or an AI/ML algorithm.
    • Purpose of Submission: The submission aims to expand compatibility with new dental implant systems and include new angulations and in-house TiN coating. This is a modification of a physical medical device, not a new AI/ML development.
    • Performance Data (Section VII): This section explicitly lists non-clinical performance testing such as:
      • Sterilization validation (ISO 17665-1)
      • Biocompatibility testing (Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Irritation per ISO 10993)
      • Reverse engineering and dimensional analysis for compatibility
      • Validation of the digital workflow and software system (but this refers to the CAD/CAM software used to design the physical abutments, not an AI/ML diagnostic tool)
      • Static and dynamic fatigue testing (ISO 14801)
      • Modified Surfaces Information
      • MRI safety review

    Conclusion:

    The provided document describes a 510(k) clearance for a physical dental implant component. It does not contain any information about the acceptance criteria or study design for an AI/ML driven medical device. Therefore, a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance related to AI/ML, sample sizes for test/training sets, details on expert ground truthing, MRMC studies, or standalone performance of an algorithm cannot be extracted from this text.

    Intended Use

    The ISO Abutment is appropriate for use with overdentures or partial dentures retained in whole or in part by endosseous implants in the mandible or maxilla. The ISO Abutment is compatible with the following fixtures.

    Device Description

    The ISO Abutment is to be placed into the dental implant to provide support for a prosthetic restoration. The ISO Abutment is made from Titanium grade Ti-6AI-4V ELI (meets ASTM Standard F-136) and compatible with several fixtures made by 3rd party implant manufactures.

    AI/ML Overview

    This 510(k) clearance letter details the regulatory approval for the ISO Abutment, an endosseous dental implant abutment. It establishes its substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on similar indications for use, technological characteristics, materials, design, and sterilization methods.

    However, the provided document does not contain information related to software, artificial intelligence (AI), diagnostic accuracy studies, or clinical performance data typically associated with acceptance criteria tables, sample sizes for medical imaging datasets, expert adjudication, or MRMC studies. The device itself is a physical dental implant component, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool.

    Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information regarding:

    • A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance (as these would be mechanical and biocompatibility tests, not diagnostic accuracy metrics)
    • Sample sizes used for the test set and data provenance (not applicable for this type of device)
    • Number of experts used to establish ground truth and qualifications (not applicable)
    • Adjudication method (not applicable)
    • MRMC comparative effectiveness study (not applicable)
    • Standalone (algorithm-only) performance (not applicable)
    • Type of ground truth used (e.g., pathology, outcomes data - not applicable for this device beyond engineering/material testing)
    • Sample size for the training set (not applicable)
    • How the ground truth for the training set was established (not applicable)

    The "Non-clinical Tests" section (Page 13) describes the types of studies performed for a physical device, which include:

    • Sterilization validation testing (ISO 17665-1 & 2)
    • Biocompatibility tests (ISO 10993-5, -10, -11, -3, -33) including:
      • Cytotoxicity
      • Oral mucosa irritation
      • Skin sensitization
      • Acute systemic toxicity
      • Subchronic systemic toxicity
      • Bacterial reverse mutation
    • Reverse engineering analysis of OEM implant body, abutment, and fixation screw (for compatibility verification)
    • TiN coating tests (F1044, F1147, F1160)
    • Non-clinical worst-case MRI review (using scientific evidence and published literature) to assess magnetic induction displacement force (ASTM F2052), magnetic induction torque (ASTM F2213), RF induction heating (ASTM F2182), and image artifact (ASTM F2119).

    These tests establish the physical, mechanical, and biological safety and compatibility of the dental abutment, rather than the diagnostic performance of an AI system.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) Clearance Letter for DESS® Dental Implants (K251280) does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a specific study proving the device meets those criteria in the context of AI/ML device performance.

    The document is a clearance letter for a dental implant system, which is a physical medical device, not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic or treatment planning software. Therefore, the questions related to AI/ML device performance (such as sample size for test/training sets, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and ground truth) are not applicable to the content provided.

    The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on:

    • Intended Use and Indications for Use
    • Technological Characteristics (design, materials, surface treatment, sterilization methods, dimensions)
    • Performance Data (non-clinical data such as MRI review, sterilization validation, bacterial endotoxin testing, shelf life, biocompatibility, and mechanical testing according to ISO 14801).

    Since the request specifically asks for AI/ML-related performance evaluation, and the provided document is not for an AI/ML device, I cannot fulfill the request as stated with the given input.

    However, I can extract the non-clinical performance data and the comparison to predicate devices, which serve as the "study" and "acceptance criteria" for this type of physical medical device in the context of a 510(k) submission.

    Non-Clinical Performance Data (Serving as "Study" for Substantial Equivalence):

    1. Worst-Case MRI Review:

      • Method: Scientific rationale and published literature (T.O. Woods, J.G. Delfino, and S. Rajan, "Assessment of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force and Torque on Metal Alloys Used in Medical Devices," Journal of Testing and Evaluation Volume 49, No. 2 (March/April 2021): 783–795).
      • Scope: Evaluated all compatible implant bodies, abutments, and fixation screws and their material composition.
      • Parameters: Magnetically induced displacement force and torque, per FDA guidance "Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment."
      • Outcome: Rationale addressed parameters; device components found suitable for the MR environment.
    2. Gamma Irradiation Sterilization Validation (for implants):

      • Method: Selecting and substantiating a 25 kGy dose using method VDmax25, according to ISO 11137-1 and ISO 11137-2.
      • Acceptance Criteria: Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of $10^{-6}$.
      • Outcome: Analysis showed the subject device implants met the SAL and did not create a new worst case compared to predicate device K212538.
    3. Bacterial Endotoxin Testing:

      • Method: Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) testing according to ANSI/AAMI ST72.

    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 Bases or Pre-milled Blanks are to be sent to a Terrats Medical validated milling center for manufacture, or to be designed and manufactured according to the digital dentistry workflow. The digital dentistry workflow integrates multiple components: scan files from intra-oral and lab (desktop) scanners, CAD software, CAM software, ceramic material, milling machine, and associated tooling and accessories.

    Device Description

    The purpose of this submission is to expand the DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutment system cleared under K221301 and K240982 to allow additional options of zirconia material, scanners, CAM software, and milling machines to the digital dentistry workflow. The subject devices are to be sent to Terrats Medical validated milling centers for manufacture, or to be designed and manufactured via a digital dentistry workflow. The digital dentistry workflow integrates multiple components: scan files from intra-oral and lab (desktop) scanners, CAD software, CAM software, titanium and ceramic material, milling machine, and associated tooling and accessories. There are no changes to the abutment design, implant compatibilities, or design parameters. All part numbers have been cleared for manufacturing via a validated milling center and digital dentistry workflows (also referred to as point of care) under K221301 and K240982.

    The subject device DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutments provide a range of prosthetic solutions for dental implant restoration. DESS abutments are offered in a variety of connection types to enable compatibility with currently marketed dental implants. All abutments are provided non-sterile, and each abutment is supplied with the appropriate abutment screw (if applicable) for attachment to the corresponding implant.

    Subject device Base Abutments are designed for fabrication of a patient-specific CAD/CAM zirconia superstructure on which a crown may be placed. They are two-piece abutments for which the second part (or top half) is the ceramic superstructure. They also may be used for support of a crown directly on the abutment.

    All patient-specific custom abutment fabrication for Base Abutments and Pre-milled (Blank) Abutments is by prescription on the order of the clinician. The subject device Pre-milled (Blank) Abutments and all zirconia superstructures for use with the subject device Ti Base Interface, DESS Aurum Base, ELLIPTIBase, and DESS C-Base will be manufactured using a validated milling center or a digital dentistry workflow. A validated milling center will be under FDA quality system regulations. The digital dentistry workflow scans files from intra-oral and lab (desktop) scanners, CAD software, CAM software, titanium and ceramic material, milling machine and associated tooling and accessories.

    The digital dentistry workflow uses scan files from intra-oral and lab (desktop) scanners, CAD software, CAM software, ceramic material, milling machine and associated tooling and accessories.

    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 is a 510(k) Summary for the ALLONUS Tech Prosthetic, which is an endosseous dental implant abutment. It details the device's technical characteristics and compares it to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence, rather than describing a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria for a new and novel performance claim.

    Therefore, many of the requested categories for acceptance criteria and study details are not directly applicable or available in this type of submission. The information provided primarily focuses on demonstrating equivalence through comparison to existing legally marketed devices, material properties, and standard performance tests for similar devices.

    However, I can extract the relevant information that is available from the document for each type of device within the ALLONUS Tech Prosthetic family: Pre-Milled Blank, Ti Base, Multi-Unit Abutment, Multi-Unit Healing Cap, Multi-Unit Temporary Cylinder, and Multi-Unit Ti-Cylinder.


    General Information on Acceptance Criteria and Studies for ALLONUS Tech Prosthetic (as inferred from the 510(k) Summary):

    The ALLONUS Tech Prosthetic is claiming substantial equivalence to predicate devices, meaning it does not need to establish new performance criteria but rather demonstrate that it is as safe and effective as existing legally marketed devices. The "acceptance criteria" here are largely implied by the performance of the predicate devices and the relevant ISO standards for dental implant abutments. The studies performed are non-clinical bench tests.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Comparison) and Reported Device Performance:

    The document presents comparisons to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence rather than explicit acceptance criteria and corresponding performance metrics for novel claims. However, the design limits of the subject devices are compared to the design limits of the predicate devices, which act as de facto acceptance criteria in the context of substantial equivalence. The device's performance is demonstrated by meeting the standards in non-clinical testing.

    Here's a generalized table summarizing this approach:

Reverse engineering included assessment of maximum and minimum dimensions of critical design aspects and tolerances of OEM implant body, OEM abutment, OEM abutment screw, along with cross-sectional images of the subject device and compatible implant body. (Page 24)
    MR Safety (FDA Guidance "Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment")Demonstrated substantial equivalence to predicate devices using scientific rationale and published literature for magnetically induced displacement force and torque.Non-clinical worst-case MRI review performed; rationale addressed parameters per FDA guidance. Results demonstrated substantial equivalence to predicate devices. (Page 24)
    Design Limits (examples)Pre-Milled Blank: Post Angle: 0-30°, Diameter: 3.0-7.0 mm (Predicate) Ti Base: Post Angle: 0-30°, Diameter: 3.0-7.0 mm (Predicate) Multi-Unit Abutment: Diameter: 4.8 mm, Gingival Height: 1.5-4.5 mm, Angle: 0, 17, 30° (Reference Device)Pre-Milled Blank: Design limits are "slightly different" but within diameter and angle range of predicate. (Page 11) Specific limits are provided in a table on page 7 for various compatible systems (e.g., Min Gingival Height: 0.5 mm, Max Gingival Height: 5.0-6.0 mm, Min Wall Thickness: 0.3-0.6 mm, Min Post Height: 4.0-4.3 mm). Ti Base: Post Angle: 0-15°, Gingival Height: 0.5-5.0 mm, Post Height: 4.0-6.0 mm, Diameter: 5.0-8.0 mm, Thickness: 0.4 mm. These are "slightly different" but within diameter and angle range of predicate. (Page 17) Multi-Unit Abutment: Diameter: 4.8 mm, Gingival Height: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 mm, Angle: 0, 17, 29°. Diameter is "slightly big," gingival height "slightly different," angles "within the predicate device's range." (Page 18)

    Indications for Use / Intended UseSimilar to predicate devicesALLONUS Tech Prosthetic is intended for use with dental implants as a support for single or multiple-unit prosthetic restorations in the maxilla or mandible of partially or fully edentulous patients, including cemented-retained, screw-retained, or overdenture restorations. Compatible with various specific implant systems. (Pages 3, 9, 10, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):

    • Test Set Sample Size:
      • The document does not specify the exact sample sizes used for the non-clinical bench tests (fatigue, sterilization, biocompatibility, or dimensional analysis). It only states that tests were performed "for the subject device" and "of the worst-case scenario through fatigue testing."
    • Data Provenance:
      • The 510(k) submission is from ALLONUS Tech Co., LTD. in the REPUBLIC OF KOREA. This implies the testing was likely conducted in or overseen by this entity.
      • The studies were non-clinical bench tests, not clinical studies involving human patients. Therefore, terms like "retrospective" or "prospective" clinical dataProvenance are not applicable here.

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

    • This information is not provided in the 510(k) Summary. For non-clinical bench testing, "ground truth" is typically established by recognized international standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM) and engineering principles, rather than expert consensus on clinical cases.
    • The document mentions "Dimensional analysis and reverse engineering... were performed" and "assessment of maximum and minimum dimensions... along with cross-sectional images." This suggests engineering expertise, but specific numbers or qualifications of experts are not stated.

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

    • This is not applicable as the studies were non-clinical bench tests. Adjudication methods like 2+1 (two readers plus one adjudicator) are used in clinical studies, particularly for diagnostic imaging, to resolve discrepancies in expert interpretations of patient data.

    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 was not done. This type of study (MRMC) is relevant for diagnostic AI devices that assist human interpretation of medical images or data. The ALLONUS Tech Prosthetic is a physical medical device (dental implant abutment), not an AI diagnostic tool.

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

    • No, a standalone (algorithm-only) performance study was not done. This question is also typically relevant for AI/software as a medical device (SaMD). The ALLONUS Tech Prosthetic is a physical device that integrates with human dental procedures.

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

    • For the non-clinical tests (fatigue, sterilization, biocompatibility), the "ground truth" is adherence to recognized international standards (ISO, ASTM) and established engineering specifications.
    • For implant-to-abutment compatibility, the "ground truth" was based on dimensional analysis and reverse engineering of OEM implant bodies, abutments, and screws, comparing the subject device's design to established OEM specifications.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • This is not applicable. "Training set" refers to data used to train machine learning algorithms. The ALLONUS Tech Prosthetic is a physical medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm.

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

    • This is not applicable as there is no training set for a physical medical device.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from ARUM DENTISTRY Co., Ltd. for a dental device called "Customized Abutment." This notification aims to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of their device to legally marketed predicate devices, as required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

    Based on the provided information, the 510(k) summary (pages 4-12) details the device, its intended use, materials, and substantial equivalence comparison to a predicate device. The information is focused on a medical device clearance and does not describe an AI/ML-driven medical device, nor does it contain information typically associated with studies proving device performance against acceptance criteria in the context of AI/ML.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information about acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, expert ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or training set details, because the provided document does not pertain to an AI/ML device.

    The document describes a physical medical device (Customized Abutment for dental implants) and its non-clinical testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence, primarily through:

    • Reverse engineering of OEM implant bodies, OEM abutments, and OEM abutment screws to confirm compatibility.
    • Static and fatigue testing according to ISO 14801.

    The closest information provided to "acceptance criteria" relates to the design parameters of the abutment, such as post height, angle, wall thickness, diameter, and gingival height, which are likely evaluated against engineering specifications and performance standards like ISO 14801.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the TruAbutment DS and TruBase devices. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (TruAbutment DS, K203649) and does not detail an acceptance criteria table with reported device performance in the manner of a clinical study. The text describes non-clinical testing performed, but not a study designed to prove the device meets acceptance criteria related to a specific clinical outcome or diagnostic accuracy.

    Therefore, many of the requested items (acceptance criteria table, sample size for test/training sets, data provenance, expert ground truth, adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone performance, type of ground truth) are not applicable based on the content of this 510(k) summary, which is a premarket notification for a medical device primarily based on demonstrating substantial equivalence through engineering and mechanical testing, not clinical performance or AI algorithm validation studies.

    However, I can extract the information provided regarding non-clinical testing for the devices.


    Acceptance Criteria and Study for TruAbutment DS & TruBase

    Based on the provided 510(k) summary, the "acceptance criteria" and "study" described are focused on non-clinical mechanical performance testing and demonstration of substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than a clinical study proving performance against specific clinical or diagnostic accuracy metrics with human or AI components.

    Here's the relevant information extracted and presented based on the document:

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

    The document does not provide a table with specific quantitative acceptance criteria alongside actual reported numerical performance results for the new devices in the context of a comparative study proving their performance against such criteria. Instead, it states that "The results of the above tests have met the criteria of the standard and demonstrated substantial equivalence with the reference devices." This implies a qualitative "met standard" outcome rather than specific numerical performance data.

    The tables provided describe the design limits of the devices and compare them to the predicate device, not performance data from a test:

    Minimum and Maximum length of abutment post (length above the abutment collar / gingival height) (mm)4.0 ~ 6.04.0 ~ 6.0Met specified range

    For mechanical performance, the document states:
    "Mechanical performance testing was performed according to ISO 14801. For compatible OEM implant line, worst-case constructs were subjected to static compression and compression fatigue testing. The fatigue limit data for all other implant lines demonstrated the construct strengths to be sufficient for their intended use."

    This confirms that the acceptance criteria for mechanical performance were "sufficient for their intended use" as defined by ISO 14801 and worst-case testing, but quantitative results are not provided.

    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 for Test Set: The document mentions "worst-case constructs" were tested for mechanical performance, and "the entire system including all variations (all compatible implant bodies, dental abutments, and fixation screws)" was evaluated for MRI environment conditions. However, specific numerical sample sizes for these tests are not provided.
    • Data Provenance: The data comes from non-clinical laboratory testing following international standards (ISO 14801, ISO 17665-1/2, ISO 10993 series). The country of origin and retrospective/prospective nature are not applicable as it's not a clinical data study.

    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. The "ground truth" for this type of device (dental abutments) is established through adherence to engineering design specifications, material standards (ASTM F136), and performance under mechanical stress tests (ISO 14801), as well as compliance with sterilization and biocompatibility standards. It does not involve expert interpretation of images or clinical outcomes in the same way an AI diagnostic device would.

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

    • This is not applicable as there is no human interpretation or subjective assessment of data requiring adjudication. Testing is based on objective measurements against engineering standards.

    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. The device is an endosseous dental implant abutment, not an AI diagnostic tool.

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

    • This is not applicable. The device is a physical dental component, not an algorithm.

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

    • The "ground truth" for validating these devices is adherence to engineering specifications, material properties, and performance standards (e.g., passing specific load-bearing and fatigue tests per ISO 14801, meeting biocompatibility requirements, maintaining dimensional accuracy). "Dimensional analysis and reverse engineering" were used to confirm compatibility.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • This is not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is a physical medical device, not an AI/machine learning algorithm.

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

    • This is not applicable for the reason above.

    Summary of the Study Proving Device Meets Criteria (Based on Provided Text):

    The "study" conducted was primarily non-clinical laboratory testing to demonstrate the mechanical performance, sterilization efficacy, and biocompatibility of the TruAbutment DS and TruBase devices. The objective was to show substantial equivalence to an existing legally marketed device (TruAbutment DS, K203649) by proving that the new devices meet established design limits and performance standards relevant to dental implant abutments.

    • Mechanical Testing: Performed on "worst-case constructs" according to ISO 14801 for static compression and compression fatigue. The outcome was that "construct strengths [were] sufficient for their intended use."
    • Sterilization Testing: Performed per ISO 17665-1:2006, 17665-2:2009 and ANSI/AAMI ST79:2010.
    • Biocompatibility Testing: Performed per ISO 10993-1:2009, ISO 10993-5:2009, and ISO 10993-10:2010.
    • MRI Environment Evaluation: A non-clinical worst-case MRI review was done using scientific rationale and published literature to assess magnetically induced displacement force and torque.
    • Dimensional Analysis and Reverse Engineering: Conducted on the implant-to-abutment connection platform to assess critical design aspects and tolerances, confirming compatibility.

    The overall conclusion was that the devices "met the criteria of the standard and demonstrated substantial equivalence with the reference devices," thus indicating they met their implied acceptance criteria for safety and performance as medical devices. Clinical testing was explicitly stated as "not necessary."

    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.

    Device Description

    The purpose of this submission is to expand the DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutment system cleared under K221301 to add the ability for the subject device Base Abutments and Pre-milled (Blank) Abutments to be designed using AbutmentCAD software in the digital dentistry workflow, as well as add angulation to some of the Pre-Milled (Blank) Abutments. The subject devices are to Terrats Medical validated milling centers for manufacture, or to be designed and manufactured via a digital dentistry workflow. The digital dentistry workflow integrates multiple components: scan files from intra-oral and lab (desktop) scanners, CAD software, CAM software, titanium and ceramic material, milling machine, and associated tooling and accessories. The proposed change is to allow the subject devices to be designed using AbutmentCAD by exocad GmbH, the current workflow allows only the use of 3Shape by 3Shape A/S for the design software. Another purpose of this submission is to expand the design parameters to allow angulation (up to 30°) on Pre-milled (Blank) Abutments that are compatible with Neodent Grand Morse, Nobel Active/Nobel Parallel Conical 3.0 mm, and Straumann BLX implants. There are no changes to the abutment design or implant compatibilities. All part numbers have been cleared for manufacturing via a validated milling center and digital dentistry workflows in under K221301.

    The subject device DESS Dental Solutions abutments provide a range of prosthetic solutions for dental implant restoration. DESS abutments are offered in a variety of connection types to enable compatibility with currently marketed dental implants.

    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

    IPD Dental Implant Abutments are intended to be used in conjunction with endosseous dental implants in the maxillary or mandibular arch to provide support for single or multiple dental prosthetic restorations.

    Device Description

    IPD Dental Implant Abutments is a dental implant abutment system composed of dental abutments and screws intended to be placed into dental implants to provide support for dental prosthetic restorations. Abutments provide basis for single or multiple tooth prosthetic restorations. They are available in a variety of connection types to enable compatibility with commercially available dental implants systems. IPD Dental Implant Abutments includes the following categories of dental abutment designs: Healing abutments; Temporary abutments; Cementing titanium abutments; Titanium base (interface) abutments; The system also includes the corresponding Titanium Screws intended to attach the prosthesis to the dental implant.

    AI/ML Overview

    This is a Premarket Notification (510(k)) summary for the IPD Dental Implant Abutments. This document does not describe a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria as would be found in a clinical trial for a novel AI device with specific performance metrics. Instead, it demonstrates substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on bench testing and engineering analysis.

    Here's an breakdown of the information provided, tailored to your request, but emphasizing that this is not a typical AI/ML performance study:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Since this is a 510(k) for dental abutments, the "acceptance criteria" are not reported as specific performance metrics (like sensitivity/specificity for an AI model), but rather as compliance with recognized standards and demonstration of substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The "reported device performance" refers to successful completion of various non-clinical tests.

    Acceptance Criteria (Demonstrated Equivalence/Compliance)Reported Device Performance (Test Results)
    Same intended use as predicate deviceIntended use is identical
    Same operating principle as predicate deviceOperating principle is identical
    Similar design and same device categoriesVery similar design, same categories
    Same materials and surface coatingsIdentical materials and surface coatings
    Same sterilization processesIdentical sterilization processes
    Sterilization validation (SAL of 1 x 10^-6)Met ISO 17665-1 requirements
    Biocompatibility: CytotoxicityNon-cytotoxic (ISO 10993-5 met)
    Biocompatibility: Sensitization (TiN coated)Met ISO 10993-10 requirements
    Biocompatibility: Irritation (TiN coated)Met ISO 10993-23 requirements
    Mechanical compatibility (with OEM implants)Confirmed by reverse engineering/dimensional analysis
    Validation of digital workflow and software systemEnsured design/manufacturing within parameters
    Static and dynamic fatigue testingMet ISO 14801 requirements (worst-case configurations)
    MRI safety (magnetically induced displacement force/torque)Reviewed using scientific rationale and published literature, parameters addressed per FDA Guidance

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

    • Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable in the context of human data or AI model test sets. The "test set" here refers to the physical samples of the IPD Dental Implant Abutments (and their components, potentially in various configurations) that were subjected to the specified bench and biocompatibility tests. The exact number of physical abutments, screws, or zirconia superstructures tested for each specific criterion is not detailed in this summary but would be found in the full test reports.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of country of origin for patient data. The tests were performed on the manufactured device components. The materials are specified (e.g., Titanium alloy conforming to ISO 5832-3).

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

    Not applicable. "Ground truth" in this context would generally refer to expert-derived labels for clinical data, which is not part of this 510(k) submission. The "truth" for the performance tests is established by adherence to recognized international standards (e.g., ISO, FDA Guidance) and objective measurements from engineering or biological tests.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods (like 2+1 or 3+1) are used for resolving disagreements among human readers or expert labelers of clinical data, which is not relevant here. The evaluation criteria for the bench tests are objective and defined by established standards.

    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. This device is a dental implant abutment, not an AI software. Therefore, MRMC studies and AI assistance effect sizes are not relevant to this submission.

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

    No. This is a physical medical device (dental abutments), not a standalone algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by:

    • Compliance with international standards (e.g., ISO 14801 for fatigue testing, ISO 10993 series for biocompatibility, ISO 17665-1 for sterilization).
    • Engineering specifications and dimensional analysis to ensure compatibility with other specified dental implant systems.
    • Validated digital dentistry workflow parameters (e.g., minimum gingival height, wall thickness, post height, angulation for zirconia superstructures), which are based on established dental prosthetic principles.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

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

    Not applicable. No training set is used for this physical device.
