Indications for Use

The BELMAX CM Model X168 X-Ray System is an extraoral source dental panoramic and cephalometric X-ray System intended to produce X-rays for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of disease of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures.

Device Story

The BELMAX CM Model X168 is a digital dental X-ray system for panoramic and cephalometric imaging. It utilizes an X-ray tube (max 90 kV) and a CCD digital sensor array housed in a removable cartridge to capture radiographic data. The system replaces traditional film/screen cassettes with digital acquisition. Operated by dental professionals in clinical settings, the device produces digital images that are viewed on a computer monitor. Software allows for adjustment of contrast, brightness, and magnification to assist in the identification of skeletal and soft tissue landmarks. By providing enhanced image quality and digital manipulation tools, the device aids clinicians in the diagnosis of dental and jaw pathologies, potentially improving diagnostic accuracy compared to conventional film-based radiography.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical study conducted by Asahi University School of Dentistry with 30 patients. Five orthodontic specialists compared digital images (viewed on monitor with software adjustments) against conventional film images (viewed on view box). Results: Skeletal hard tissue structures observed in 97% of digital images vs 81% of film; soft tissue structures observed in 87% of digital images vs 43% of film; landmark identification clarity was 93.6% for digital vs 81.6% for film. Digital images were rated superior to film for overall quality and landmark identification.

Technological Characteristics

Extraoral dental X-ray system; max peak tube potential 90 kV; CCD digital acquisition sensor in removable cartridge; digital processing; standalone system; compliant with Federal X-ray performance standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for dental radiographic imaging of the dento-maxillofacial region for the examination and diagnosis of diseases of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures in patients requiring dental X-ray assessment.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An extraoral source x-ray system is an AC-powered device that produces x-rays and is intended for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of diseases of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures. The x-ray source (a tube) is located outside the mouth. This generic type of device may include patient and equipment supports and component parts.

Similar to the prior Takara Belmont ANA-BEL, ANA-BEL CM equipped with the Takara Belmont ADR Plus SSXI, the BELMAX CM Model X168 X-Ray System offers digital imaging with panoramic and cephalometric imaging programs with the same exposure levels (KV/mA). Modifications resulting in the device include a new sized CCD sensor including three rather than two of the same sensor array grids mounted in a removable cartridge rather than bolted in place. #### Device Intended Use #### The BELMAX CM Model X168 X-Ray System is an extraoral source dental panoramic and cephalometric X-ray System intended to produce X-rays for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of disease of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures. #### Device Technological Characteristics 807.92(a)(6) BELMAX CM, Takara ANA-BEL and ANA-BEL CM with Takara ADR Plus SSXI Imaging Device all employ X-ray tube with maximum rated peak tube potential of 90 kV, and a CCD digital acquisition sensor in a replacement film cassette. Digital processing is used. | Nonclinical and Clinical Tests | 807.92(b) | |--------------------------------|-----------| |--------------------------------|-----------| #### 807.92(b)(1) Nonclinical Tests Discussion The nonclinical tests included - physical characteristics unique to the BELMAX CM, such as tolerance . limits and effects of power noise on the operation of the device - operational function tests such as procedure for taking an exposure . - functional characteristics such as plotting of the latent image decay . characteristic as a function of time and temperature, recovery time for radiographic device to be able to accept the next exposure - exposure characteristics such as quantitative measurements of the input . dose required to generate an image equivalent to that provided by a predicate device - safety features such as a ready signal provided to indicate the SSXI is . prepared to accept and process an X-ray input # 807.92(a)(4) 807.92(a)(5) {2}------------------------------------------------ ### Clinical Tests Discussion # 807.92(b)(2) A clinical trial was sponsored and conducted by the Department of Oral Radiology, Asahi University School of Dentistry and included 30 patients receiving a dental examination. Readings were performed by five specialists in orthodontic dentistry. Digital images were observed on a computer monitor using the contrast, brightness, and magnification adjustment function of the ANA-BEL CM software, while X-ray films were observed on a conventional view box. On BELMAX CM digital images, skeletal hard tissue structures were clearly observed in 97% of the subjects, whereas this fell to 81% for film images. For the depiction of soft tissue structures, 87% of BELMAX CM digital images were rated as sufficient whereas only 43% for film images. The BELMAX CM digital images were rated better than the film images on overall image quality. For landmark identification, the average percentage of sufficient clarity on BELMAX CM digital images was 93.6% and on X-ray film images it was 81.6%. The BELMAX CM digital images were rated better than the film images for landmark identification. #### Statement of Compliance with Federal X-ray Performance Standards The BELMAX CM Model X168 X-Ray System is in compliance with the Federal X-ray performance standards. #### Conclusion #### 807.92(b)(3) The modified device has the same intended use and principle of operation as the prior Takara Belmont devices, as well as substantially equivalent technical specifications. The modifications were implemented to improve the ease of use. maintenance, and image quality, and do not change the intended use or fundamental scientific technology of the device. A hazard analysis, validation testing and clinical study against the generic X-ray film/screen predicate similar to those submitted for the prior Takara Belmont devices were presented to support the substantial equivalence of the modified Takara Belmont system. The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical and clinical tests demonstrate that the BELMAX CM Model X168 X-Ray System is as safe, as effective and performs as well as or better than the Takara ANA-BEL and ANA-BEL CM Panoramic X-ray system with Takara ADR Plus SSXI Imaging Device and than the Generic X-Ray film. {3}------------------------------------------------ The BELMAX CM, Takara ANA-BEL and ANA-BEL CM Panoramic X-ray system with Takara ADR Plus SSXI Imaging Device and with the Generic X-Ray film are substantially equivalent. > Page 4 of 4 SUBMITTED BY SCHIFF & COMPANY, WEST CALDWELL, NJ JC C:\Documents and Settings\sak\Local Settings\Temporary \nternet Files\OLKC5\Belmax CM 510k Summary.doc {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
