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 Category | Reported 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.

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:
| Feature/Test | Acceptance Criteria (Based on Predicate/Standards) | Reported Device Performance (Subject Device) |
|---|---|---|
| Materials | Ti-6Al-4V ELI (ASTM F136) for metallic components, Zirconia Oxide for Ti-Base superstructure | Ti-6Al-4V ELI (ASTM F136) for Pre-Milled Blank, Multi-Unit Abutment, Healing Cap, Temporary Cylinder, Ti-Cylinder. Ti-6Al-4V ELI (ASTM F136) and Zirconia Oxide (InCoris Zi) for Ti Base. |
| Fatigue Test (ISO 14801:2016) | Met criteria of the standard. | Met criteria of the standard. (Page 23) |
| End-User Steam Sterilization (ISO 17665-1:2006, 17665-2:2009, ANSI/AAMI ST79:2010) | Met criteria of the standard. | Met criteria of the standard. (Page 23) |
| Biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1:2009, -5:2009, -10:2010) | Met criteria of the standard. | Met criteria of the standard. (Page 23) |
| Implant-to-Abutment Compatibility | Demonstrated by reverse engineering and assessment of OEM components. | Demonstrated compatibility with various OEM implant systems (listed in Indications for Use). 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) |
| Sterility | Non-sterile (Predicate) | Non-sterile (All subject devices) |
| Indications for Use / Intended Use | Similar to predicate devices | ALLONUS 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.

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:
- Sterilization validation: According to ISO 17665-1, ISO 17665-2, and ISO 14937.
- Biocompatibility testing: According to ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-12.
- 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.
- MR Conditional labeling.
- 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.
- 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.

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 for specific tests. For mechanical fatigue testing (ISO 14801), it mentions "worst-case constructs" were subjected to testing, implying a representative selection rather than a large clinical sample. Industry standards typically specify minimum sample sizes for such tests (e.g., 5-10 samples per test group for fatigue).
- Data Provenance: Not specified, but likely from laboratory testing conducted by the manufacturer or a contracted third-party lab. It's a non-clinical, bench-top study.
- Retrospective or Prospective: Non-clinical laboratory testing is neither retrospective nor prospective in the clinical sense. It's a controlled experimental study.
-
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 a non-clinical, bench-top engineering and materials performance study, not a diagnostic or clinical efficacy study requiring expert human interpretation of data for ground truth. Compliance with engineering standards and material specifications forms the basis of "ground truth."

SIMDA Abutments are intended for use with dental implants as a support for single or multiple tooth prostheses in the maxilla or mandible of a partially or fully edentulous patient.
SIMDA Abutment is made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI, ASTM F136) intended for use as an aid in prosthetic restoration. It consists of Pre-Milled Blank and Ti-Base abutment. It has a premanufactured connection interface that fits directly to an endosseous dental implant.
This FDA 510(k) summary describes a dental device, the SIMDA Abutment. However, it does not include information that directly addresses the specific questions you've asked about acceptance criteria and a study proving a device meets them, particularly for an AI/ML powered device.
Here's why and what information is provided:
The document is a premarket notification for a Class II medical device, specifically dental implant abutments. These are physical components used in dental restorations, not an AI/ML powered diagnostic or therapeutic device. Therefore, the concepts of "acceptance criteria for an AI model," "test set," "ground truth," "MRMC studies," "effect size of human readers with AI assistance," or "standalone algorithm performance" are not applicable to this submission.
The "studies" mentioned are non-clinical (mechanical, biological) tests demonstrating the physical safety and performance of the abutments and their compatibility with existing dental implant systems.
Here's a breakdown of the relevant information provided, framed as closely as possible to your request, but acknowledging the device type:
Device: SIMDA Abutments (K232271)
Device Type: Endosseous Dental Implant Abutment (physical medical device, not AI/ML powered)

| - MRI Safety: Must address magnetically induced displacement force and torque (per FDA guidance "Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment"). | "Non-clinical worst-case MRI review was performed... using scientific rationale and published literature... Rationale addressed parameters per the FDA guidance... including magnetically induced displacement force and torque." - Implies the device is deemed safe in the MR environment based on this review. |
| - Compatibility with OEM Implant Systems: Precision implant/abutment interface. | Dimensional analysis and reverse engineering of critical features... Cross sectional images were provided to demonstrate substantially equivalent compatibility. The testing aided implant to abutment compatibility and has established substantial equivalency of the proposed device with the predicate device. |
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- This information is not provided. For physical tests (fatigue, biocompatibility, sterilization), sample sizes would typically be determined by the relevant ISO standards.
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. "Ground truth" in the context of AI/ML is not relevant here. The "truth" is established by physical measurement, adherence to material standards, and documented mechanical performance.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable. Adjudication methods are typically for subjective assessments, whereas these are objective physical tests.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
- Not applicable. This is a physical dental device, 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 a physical dental device.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- For physical tests, the "ground truth" is defined by the ISO standards and FDA guidance documents to which the device is tested. This includes established methods for fatigue testing, biocompatibility evaluation, and sterilization efficacy. For compatibility, it's about precise dimensional matching and mechanical fit to existing OEM implant systems.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. This is a physical dental device, not an AI/ML powered device that requires a "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable. See point 8.
In summary, this document is for a traditional medical device (dental abutments), and thus the questions formulated for an AI/ML device do not directly apply. The acceptance criteria are based on established engineering and materials standards, and performance is demonstrated through non-clinical laboratory testing rather than clinical or observational studies on diagnostic performance.

| Sterilization Efficacy: | Demonstrated through and leveraged from predicate device testing according to ISO 17665-1 and ISO 14937. (Implies the Preat Abutments, and the recommended end-user sterilization method, meet these standards). |
| Magnetic Resonance (MR) Safety: | Non-clinical worst-case MRI review performed based on scientific rationale and published literature (e.g., Woods et al., 2019) and FDA guidance "Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment." Rationale addressed parameters including magnetically induced displacement force and torque. (Implies the device is deemed safe for the MR environment based on this review). |
| Material Conformance: | Abutments and screws manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy conforming to ASTM F136. Zirconia superstructures manufactured from Zirconia conforming to ISO 13356. (Implies materials meet specified standards). |

| "Substantially Equivalent" (Overall): | The subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K183518) in indications, intended use, design principles, materials (Ti-6Al-4V alloy), and mode of operation. Differences are related to compatible implant systems and additional abutment designs, supported by reference devices and mitigated by mechanical performance testing. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
The document does not detail specific sample sizes for the mechanical testing ("worst-case constructs"). The data provenance is not explicitly stated in terms of country of origin, nor is it described as retrospective or prospective in the context of test sets. The studies are non-clinical (laboratory testing).
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 information is not applicable. The studies described are non-clinical performance and material conformance tests, not diagnostic studies or those requiring expert interpretation of results to establish ground truth in the way medical imaging algorithms might.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
This information is not applicable. Adjudication methods typically apply to human interpretation of data, often in clinical studies or when establishing ground truth for AI algorithms, which is not the nature of the studies described.
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 information is not applicable. An MRMC comparative effectiveness study is used for diagnostic AI devices involving human readers. This document describes non-clinical performance testing for dental abutments, which is a physical device, not an AI algorithm.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
This information is not applicable. The device is a physical dental abutment, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
The concept of "ground truth" as typically used in the context of evaluating diagnostic algorithms (e.g., expert consensus, pathology) is not applicable here. For the non-clinical tests, the "ground truth" or reference for performance is the compliance with specified ISO and ASTM standards and the performance of the predicate/reference devices through comparative testing. For example:
- Mechanical Testing: The "ground truth" would be the passing criteria defined by ISO 14801.
- Material Conformance: The "ground truth" would be the specifications in ASTM F136 and ISO 13356.
- Biocompatibility & Sterilization: The "ground truth" would be the specifications in ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-5, ISO 17665-1, and ISO 14937.
8. The sample size for the training set:
This information is not applicable. There is no AI algorithm being described, and therefore no training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
This information is not applicable for the same reason as above.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not explicitly state a test set sample size for each specific non-clinical test in terms of a number of devices. It refers to general testing.
- For the bone changes evaluation (part of biocompatibility/osseointegration): "A total of 174 surfaces were graded (87 implants)."
- Data provenance: The bone changes evaluation references "published literature" on patients, suggesting retrospective (or possibly prospective clinical studies mentioned in the literature). "Internal routine monitoring data" and "post-market surveillance data" are mentioned, indicating real-world data collection, likely retrospective for surveillance and ongoing for monitoring. The manufacturer is Paltop Advanced Dental Solutions, Ltd, Hashita 5, Industrial Park, Caesarea 3088900, Israel.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications
The document doesn't specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish "ground truth" for the test set.

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification decision letter from the FDA to Nobel Biocare AG regarding their Dental Implant Systems Portfolio - MR Conditional. It explicitly states that the letter covers indications for use and general controls, but does not contain information about acceptance criteria or performance studies for the device itself.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information for the following reasons:
- Acceptance Criteria and Performance Data: The document is a regulatory clearance letter, not a clinical study report. It does not contain acceptance criteria for device performance, nor does it present any data from studies proving the device meets particular criteria. The letter confirms substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, which means the FDA has determined the device is as safe and effective as a previously cleared device, not that specific performance metrics were tested and met in a new study.
- Study Details (Sample size, data provenance, experts, adjudication, MRMC, Standalone, Ground Truth, Training Set): Since no performance study data is included in this FDA 510(k) clearance letter, none of these details can be extracted. The document refers to various previously cleared predicate devices (e.g., K202452, K202344, K181869), but it doesn't describe the studies that led to their clearance.
In summary, the provided text does not contain the information necessary to describe acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria.

As the materials are the same (Ti-6Al-4V ELI and InCoris Zi), the biocompatibility is assumed to be equivalent. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document does not specify a distinct "test set" in the context of an AI-driven device or clinical study. The testing performed was non-clinical mechanical performance testing on physical devices and based on technical specifications and design parameters.
- Sample Size: For the fatigue testing, the document mentions "worst-case constructs" were subjected to testing, and "the fatigue limit data for all other implant lines demonstrated the construct strengths to be sufficient." However, specific numerical sample sizes for these tests are not provided.
- Data Provenance: The data originates from internal non-clinical testing conducted by the manufacturer or accredited labs for mechanical and material properties. No country of origin is specified for these tests. The nature of these tests is prospective in the sense that they are conducted specifically for the submission, but they are not clinical studies.
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 information is not applicable. The device is a physical dental implant abutment, not an AI device that requires expert ground truth labeling for image analysis or diagnostic purposes. The "ground truth" for its performance is established through adherence to engineering standards (ISO 14801) and material specifications (ASTM F 136).
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
