K914724 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ADA SHANK EXTENSION. Classified as Drill, Dental, Intraoral (product code DZA), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Implant Corp. of America (St. Petersburg, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 27, 1993 after a review of 648 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Dental FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 872.4130 - the FDA dental device regulatory framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind Dental submissions.
