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.
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.
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.

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.

The required cement for bonding the zirconia superstructure to the Dynamic TiBases to create the final two-piece abutment is Nova Resin Cement cleared in K213609.
Also, the subject of this submission are seven (7) abutment screws for use with the subject abutments.
This FDA 510(k) clearance letter pertains to a dental implant abutment — the Dynamic TiBase — not an AI-powered diagnostic device or software. Therefore, the information typically requested about acceptance criteria and study designs for validating AI/ML-based medical devices (such as sample size, expert ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and training set details) is not applicable to this document.
The "performance data" section in this 510(k) summary refers to traditional engineering and biocompatibility testing for a physical medical device, not performance metrics for an algorithm.
Here's how to interpret the provided document in the context of "acceptance criteria" and "proof":
Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (as inferred for a physical device):
For a physical device like the Dynamic TiBase, the "acceptance criteria" are generally met through demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device. This involves validating material properties, manufacturing processes, functional performance (e.g., mechanical strength, compatibility), and biocompatibility.
The "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" refers to the non-clinical testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
Acceptance Criterion (Inferred for a Dental Abutment) | Reported Device Performance / Proof |
---|---|
Biocompatibility (Device materials are safe for biological contact) | Referenced from K232151 (provided in K212108): Biocompatibility testing according to ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity) for abutment materials ASTM F136 (titanium alloy) and ISO 13356 (zirconia). This indicates the materials did not show cytotoxic effects when tested according to the standard. |
Mechanical Performance/Strength (Abutment can withstand oral forces without failure) | Provided in this submission: Mechanical testing conducted according to ISO 14801 to support the performance of the subject device abutments in conjunction with the compatible OEM implants. This standard specifically evaluates the fatigue strength of endosseous dental implants. The successful completion of this testing, validated against the predicate device, implies the device meets required load-bearing capacities. |
MRI Safety (Device does not pose undue risk in MRI environment) | Provided in this submission: Non-clinical worst-case MRI review to evaluate subject device components in the MR environment using scientific rationale and published literature. This included addressing magnetically induced displacement force and torque parameters as per FDA guidance. The review concluded that the device is safe for MRI under specified conditions. |
Sterilization Efficacy (Device supplied non-sterile can be effectively sterilized by user) | Referenced from K232151 (provided in K212108): Moist heat sterilization validated to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6 by the overkill method according to ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1 and ANSI/AAMI/ISO TIR 17665-2. This demonstrates that the specified sterilization method for end-users achieves the required sterility. |
Dimensional Compatibility & Fit (Device correctly interfaces with specified implants) | Provided in this submission: Reverse engineering dimensional analysis (of OEM implant bodies, OEM abutments, and OEM abutment screws) to demonstrate that the subject device abutments are compatible with listed OEM Implant Systems (Osstem® TS/ Hiossen® ET, Neodent GM, NobelActive, Straumann Bone Level, and Straumann BLX Implant Systems). This confirms the physical design correctly matches the intended implant systems. |
Material Conformance (Materials meet specified standards) | Materials confirmed to conform to: Ti-6Al-4V (ASTM F136, ISO 5832-3) for titanium components; Zirconia (ISO 13356) for superstructure; Nova Resin Cement (cleared in K213609) for bonding. This demonstrates the use of medical-grade, standard-compliant materials. |
Manufacturing Quality (Device is produced under controlled conditions) | Stated that zirconia superstructures will be made at a Talladium España, SL validated milling center under FDA quality system regulations. This implies adherence to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). |
Regarding the specific questions about an AI/ML context:
- A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: Provided above, adapted for a physical medical device.
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. The "test set" for this physical device refers to the number of physical abutment samples or material samples subjected to mechanical, biocompatibility, and MRI testing. The document does not specify exact sample numbers for these engineering tests, only the standards used (e.g., ISO 14801 typically specifies minimum sample sizes). Data provenance is "non-clinical data" generated from laboratory testing.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth for a dental abutment's performance is established by engineering standards, material specifications, and physical testing, not by expert human interpretation of images or clinical outcomes in the same way as an AI diagnostic.
- Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable. This is a concept used in evaluating human reader performance in AI studies.
- 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 for AI-assisted diagnostic devices.
- If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This refers to an AI algorithm's performance.
- The type of ground truth used: For a physical device, "ground truth" is defined by adherence to established engineering standards (e.g., ISO 14801 for mechanical strength), material properties, and biocompatibility standards. "Reverse engineering dimensional analysis" served as a form of "ground truth" for compatibility. No pathology or outcomes data was used for this premarket notification.
- The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is not an AI/ML device.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
In summary, this 510(k) clearance is for a physical medical device (dental abutment), and the "performance data" section details the engineering and material testing conducted to demonstrate its safety and effectiveness, primarily through substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices. It does not involve AI/ML validation methodologies.

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.
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.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
This information is not applicable and not provided. "Adjudication" typically refers to resolving discrepancies in expert labeling or diagnoses for AI/ML ground truth, which is not relevant here.
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. No MRMC study was conducted as the device is a physical dental abutment, not an AI-assisted 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 product, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
For the non-clinical tests, the "ground truth" is defined by the standards and specifications used (e.g., ASTM F136 for material, ISO 14801 for mechanical testing, ISO 17655-1 for sterilization, FDA guidance for MRI safety). The device's performance is compared against the requirements of these established standards.
8. The sample size for the training set:
This is not applicable. The device is a physical product, not an AI/ML model that requires a training set. The device design parameters are "trained" through engineering design principles and verified through physical testing.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
This is not applicable. There is no training set as it's not an AI/ML algorithm. The design of the abutment relies on established engineering principles, material science, and compatibility specifications with existing implant systems.

DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutments are intended to be used in conjunction with endosseous dental implants in the maxillary or mandibular arch to provide support for prosthetic restorations.
All digitally designed custom abutments for use with DESS Ti Base abutments or Pre-Milled Blank abutments are to be sent to a Terrats Medical validated milling center for manufacture.
The purpose of this submission is to add components to the DESS Dental Smart Solutions system, which includes dental implants, abutments, and prosthetic components cleared previously in various submissions. The previously cleared abutments and prosthetic components are compatible with a variety of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) dental implants as well as DESS Dental Smart Solutions dental implants.
This submission adds various abutments to the DESS and OEM implant lines as summarized on the following pages in Table 1 Summary of Subject Device Abutment Designs, and Table 2 Summary of Subject Device Abutment Sizes.
The subject device abutment designs include Cover Screws, Healing Abutments, Temporary Abutments, Ti Base Abutments, AURUM Base Abutments (Ti Base abutments with a screw channel design that allows easier instrument access to the abutment screw), CoCr Base Abutments, Pre-Milled Blank Abutments, Multi-Unit Abutments (straight and angled), DESSLoc Abutments (Locator-type abutments), and abutment screws.
This document is a 510(k) summary for the DESS Dental Smart Solutions, a line of endosseous dental implant abutments. It details the device's characteristics, intended use, and a comparison to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence.
Based on the provided text, the device itself is a physical medical device (dental implant abutments and associated components), not a software or AI-driven system. Therefore, the questions related to AI acceptance criteria, training/test sets, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, and ground truth establishment for AI would not be directly applicable to this product as described.
The document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices through:
- Identical Intended Use: The device is intended for "functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous mandible or maxilla" by providing support for prosthetic restorations, which is the same as the predicate devices.
- Similar Technological Characteristics: The device utilizes similar designs, materials (Ti-6Al-4V, Co-Cr-Mo alloy), manufacturing processes, and sterilization methods as its predicates.
- Performance Data: Non-clinical testing (mechanical testing per ISO 14801, MR environment assessment) and comparison to existing data from predicate devices are used to demonstrate safety and effectiveness.
Therefore, many of the requested elements for describing AI acceptance criteria and studies are not present or applicable in this document.
However, I can extract information relevant to the device's performance assessment and criteria for its type of submission.
Here's an attempt to answer the questions based solely on the provided text, acknowledging that the nature of the device (a physical implant component) means many AI-specific questions will be answered as "Not Applicable" (N/A):
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly state quantifiable "acceptance criteria" in a table format with corresponding "reported device performance" metrics for this specific 510(k) submission. Instead, it relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices.
The underlying "acceptance criteria" for demonstrating substantial equivalence for this device type are primarily through:
- Mechanical Testing (ISO 14801): This is a critical performance standard for dental implants and abutments. The document states that mechanical testing was "conducted according to ISO 14801 to support the performance." The acceptance criteria would be successful completion of these tests, demonstrating the device's mechanical strength and fatigue resistance are comparable to or better than predicate devices. The reported performance is simply that the tests supported the performance.
- Material Conformance: Materials must conform to specific ASTM standards (e.g., ASTM F136 for Ti-6Al-4V, ASTM F1537 for Co-Cr-Mo). The reported performance is that the materials conform to these standards.
- Biocompatibility: While not detailed in this excerpt, the mention of "biocompatibility" in relation to predicates implies conformance to relevant biocompatibility standards (e.g., ISO 10993 series). The reported performance is that it is compatible.
- Sterilization Validation: Demonstrated sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶ via validated methods (moist heat or gamma irradiation). The reported performance is that validation was performed and met this SAL.
- Dimensional Compatibility: The abutments must fit the corresponding OEM implants correctly. The reported performance is that reverse engineering dimensional analysis confirmed compatibility.
Due to the nature of the document being a 510(k) summary focusing on substantial equivalence rather than a full study report, specific numerical performance results for the device tests are not provided in this text.
2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance
- Sample Size for Mechanical Testing: The document states "mechanical testing conducted according to ISO 14801." For such tests, ISO 14801 typically specifies minimum sample sizes (e.g., 10-11 samples for static strength, typically more for fatigue). The exact number of samples used for this specific submission is not explicitly stated, but it would have followed the standard's requirements.
- Data Provenance: The mechanical testing and material analyses are assumed to be "non-clinical data submitted or referenced" by the manufacturer, Terrats Medical SL, based in Barcelona, Spain. The "reverse engineering dimensional analysis" was done by Terrats Medical SL or through contractual agreement. This is prospective testing performed to support the 510(k). The document itself does not specify the country of origin for the underlying OEM implant data used for reverse engineering, although the OEM companies are listed (e.g., Astra Tech AB, BioHorizons).
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
N/A. This is a physical device. Ground truth, in the context of AI, refers to validated labels for data used to train and test an algorithm. For a physical device, performance is evaluated through engineering and biocompatibility testing against defined standards. There are no "experts" establishing ground truth in the AI sense. Testing would be performed by qualified engineers and technicians.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
N/A. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies involving interpretation (e.g., by radiologists) to resolve discrepancies. This document describes non-clinical performance testing of a physical device.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
N/A. This product is a dental implant abutment, not an AI software intended to assist human readers.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
N/A. This is a physical device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
N/A. For engineering tests of physical devices, the "ground truth" is typically derived from established engineering principles, international standards (e.g., ISO 14801 for mechanical properties, ASTM for materials), and the physical properties of the materials and designs themselves. There isn't "expert consensus" or "pathology" in the AI or clinical trials sense.
8. The sample size for the training set
N/A. This is a physical device; there's no "training set" in the machine learning sense. The device is manufactured based on established engineering designs and material specifications.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
N/A. No training set for AI. For device manufacturing, the "ground truth" for design and production parameters comes from established engineering best practices, prior successful device designs (predicate devices), and adherence to quality systems regulations (21 CFR Part 820).

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.
The purpose of this submission is to expand the DESS Dental Smart Solutions abutment system by a change in sterilization status to provide products sterile to the end user that were previously cleared to be provided non-sterile. The subject device abutments and abutment screws were cleared previously to be provided non-sterile to the end user in K170588, K191986, K212628, and K22288. All subject device components will now be provided sterile.
The subject device components include Healing Abutments, Multi-Unit Abutments (0, 17°, and 30°), and abutment screws.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the DESS Dental Smart Solutions, an endosseous dental implant abutment. It details the device, its intended use, and its substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate and reference devices. However, this document does not contain the acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria in the context of an AI/ML medical device.
The 510(k) submission for this dental abutment focuses on establishing substantial equivalence based on:
- Design and Material: The subject device components are identical in design, material (Ti-6Al-4V alloy, DLC coating), and technological characteristics to previously cleared devices.
- Manufacturing: The manufacturing process is consistent with previously cleared devices.
- Biocompatibility: Referenced from previous K-clearances.
- Sterilization: The main change in this submission is expanding the system to provide products sterile to the end-user via gamma irradiation, which was validated by referencing a previous K-clearance (K212538).
- MR Environment Testing: Non-clinical analysis was performed to evaluate the subject devices in the MR environment, referencing published literature and FDA guidance.
- Shelf Life Testing: Referenced from a previous K-clearance (K212538) for samples after accelerated aging.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request to describe the acceptance criteria and a study proving an AI/ML device meets them based on the provided text, as this document is not about an AI/ML medical device. It's about dental implant abutments and establishes substantial equivalence through non-clinical performance data and comparison to predicate devices, not through AI/ML performance metrics.
To provide the information you requested, I would need a document detailing the validation of an AI/ML medical device, which would include definitions of acceptance criteria (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity), details of training and test datasets, ground truth establishment, and potentially clinical effectiveness studies if applicable.
