Intended Use
Overjet Periapical Radiolucency (PARL) Assist is a radiological, automated, concurrent read computer-assisted detection software intended to aid in the detection of periapical radiolucencies on permanent teeth captured on periapical radiographs. The device provides additional aid for the dentist to use in their identification of periapical radiolucency. The device is not intended as a replacement for a complete dentist's review or their clinical judgment that considers other relevant information from the image or patient history. The system is to be used by professionally trained and licensed dentists.
Device Story
Overjet PARL Assist is a software-only medical image analyzer used by licensed dentists in dental clinics. It processes periapical radiographs to automatically detect periapical radiolucencies (PARL). The system operates via three layers: a Network Layer for image ingestion, a Decision Layer containing a machine learning model that generates predictions, and a Presentation Layer that displays results on a dashboard. The device outputs a segmented polygon identifying potential PARL regions. It serves as a concurrent read tool to assist clinicians in their diagnostic process; it does not replace clinical judgment or comprehensive patient evaluation. By highlighting potential radiolucencies, the device aims to improve the accuracy of PARL detection, supporting more informed clinical decision-making and potentially improving patient outcomes through earlier or more accurate identification of dental pathology.
Clinical Evidence
MRMC reader study with 19 US licensed dentists evaluating 379 periapical radiographs (12+ years old). Primary endpoint: AUC of ROC. Results: 4.8% improvement in AUC (p<0.001) for assisted vs. unassisted readers. Image-level sensitivity increased by 13.6%; specificity decreased by 7.1%. Instance-level sensitivity improved by 16.2%. Standalone performance (763 images + 384 study images) showed 88% image-level sensitivity and 82.8% specificity.
Technological Characteristics
Software-only device; operates via network, decision, and presentation layers. Uses machine learning for image analysis. Outputs segmented polygons on periapical radiographs. Compatible with various dental sensors (Dexis, e2v, Gendex, Schick).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients 12 years of age or older to aid in the detection of periapical radiolucencies on permanent teeth using periapical radiographs.

Overjet Periapical Radiolucency "PARL" Assist is a module within the Overjet Platform. The Overjet PARL Assist (OPA) software automatically detects periapical radiolucency on periapical radiographs. It is intended to aid dentists in the detection of periapical radiolucency. It should not be used in lieu of full patient evaluation or solely relied upon to make or confirm a diagnosis. The system is to be used by professionally trained and licensed dentists. Overjet PARL Assist is a software-only device which operates in three layers: a Network Layer, aPresentation Layer, and a Decision Layer. Images are pulled in from a clinic/dental office, and the Machine Learning model creates predictions in the Decision Layer and results are pushed to the dashboard, which are in the Presentation Layer.

# Indications for Use Comparison
The minor differences between the Overjet PARL Assist subject device and the Primary Predicate Device DTX Studio Clinic 3.0 (K221921) and secondary predicate device Pearl Second opinion (K210365) do not constitute a new intended use. The Overjet PARL Assist device shares the same intended use as the primary and secondary predicates, and the device is intended to aid in the detection of PARL on 2D periapical radiographs. The primary predicate device is intended to be used for ages 15+ and the secondary predicate device is intended for ages 12+, same as the Overjet PARL Assist Device. The Overjet PARL Assist Device is a concurrent read device same as the primary predicate device. The primary predicate device outputs a toggleable bounding box whereas the Overjet a segmented polygon of PARL. Both devices are intended to be diagnostic aids, and provide information for clinicians to use as additional information in their clinical examinations. The performance testing for the Overjet PARL Assist device demonstrates that aided readers improve in detection of PARL over unaided readers. In summary, the Overjet PARL Assist Device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
# Technological Comparison
# 21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)
The primary predicate device outputs a toggleable bounding box whereas the Overjet device outputs a segmented polygon of PARL. The minor difference in technological characteristics do not raise a concern of substantial equivalence as demonstrated by the performance testing of the Overjet device.
#### Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions 21 CFR 807.92(b)
### MRMC Reader Study
Overjet evaluated the Overjet PARL Assist (OPA) in a multi case (MRMC) fully crossed reader improvement study. 19 US licensed dentists were asked to evaluate 379 periapical radiographs (190 images with at least 1 PARL and 189 images with no PARL), lmaqes were obtained from male and female patients aged 12 years and older. The consensus reference standard established by 3 endodontists.
Half of the data set contained unassisted images not run on the OPA device), and the second half contained radiographs that had been "assisted" or processed through the OPA device. The radiographs were presented to the readers in alternating groups. A 4 week washout period was utilized to limit recollection bias. Following the washout, the readers were presented the same data set but with alternate grouping. This means that if a reader saw a radiograph in the unassisted state in Session 1, the Overjet PARL Assist predictions in Session 2.
The results were compared against a consensus ground truth, and the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was evaluated as a primary endpoint to characterize the readers assisted and unassisted by the Overjet PARL Assist device.
The AUC of the ROC at the image level avers all readers showed a 4.8 % (95% Cl's 0.030, 0.066) improvement in assisted readers compared to unassisted readers. The p-value was highly statistically significant at <0.001.
Average Image level sensitivity across all readers increased by 13.6% (0.110, 0.165) when compared to unassisted readers. The average specificity at the image level decreased slightly from 83.2% to 76.1% (-0.071 difference, Cls (-0.099, -0.042)). Reader improvement for assisted readers at the instance (polygon) level sensitivity averaged across all readers was 16.2% (0.125, 0.194),
#### Standalone Performance Testing
Standalone performance of the Overjet PARL Assist device was evaluated for 763 periapical images + 384 additional standalone study images). The dataset was split with 326 images with no PARL. Images were obtained from male and female patients aged 12 years and older from various clinical sites across the U.S.. The results were compared to the consensus reference standard established by 3 endodontists.
Image level standalone sensitivity was 88%, 95% Cl's (0.847, 0.914). Image Level standalone specificity was 8.2%, 95% Cl's (0.810, 0.847). Polygon (instance) level standalone sensitivity was 66.4%, 95% Cl's (0.615, 0.711).
lmage Level Standalone Sensitivity and Specificity by sensor category is as follows: Dexis - Sensitivity: 0.867 (0.800, 0.933) Specificity: 0.885 (0.827, 0.942) e2v - Sensitivity: 0.861 (0.785, 0.937) Specificity: 0.804 (0.728, 0.875) Gendex - Sensitivity: 0.889 (0.815, 0.951) Specificity: 0.793 (0.712, 0.865) Schick - Sensitivity: 0.908 (0.836, 0.961) Specificity: 0.891 (0.827, 0.945)
