More Information

No
The summary describes a standard dental implant system with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes.
The device is intended to restore chewing function and provide support for prosthetic restorations, which involves treating a medical condition (edentulism or partial edentulism).

No

The device description indicates that Nucleoss Tpure Implant System are medical devices intended to be surgically placed in the bone to provide support for prosthetic restorations. This functionality is therapeutic, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components made of titanium, including implants, abutments, covers, and other accessories, which are hardware.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is surgically placed in bone to support prosthetic restorations and restore chewing function. This is a direct therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical components of a dental implant system (implants, abutments, covers, etc.) made of materials like titanium. This aligns with a surgical implant, not a diagnostic reagent or instrument.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting specific markers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health condition.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility, fatigue testing, MRI safety, and sterilization validation, which are relevant to the safety and efficacy of a surgical implant, not a diagnostic device.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Nucleoss Tpure Implant System consists of the Nucleoss Tpure Dental Implant, Nucleoss Dental Abutments, Covers, Gingiva Formers, Comfort Caps, and accessories.

The Nucleoss Tpure Implant is a bone level, root form implant constructed of unalloyed titanium per ISO 5832-2, with an SLA surface treatment. Nucleoss Tpure Implants have a conical form design, with a double lead thread form and two vertical anti-rotation grooves. The internal structure is designed as a conical internal hex connection with 80 degree bevel.

Nucleoss Tpure Implants are provided in the following sizes: 3.4 mm diameter with lengths of 10, 12 and 14 mm, and 3.8, 4.2, 5.0 mm diameters with lengths of 8, 10, 12, and 14 mm.

Nucleoss Dental Abutments are constructed of titanium alloy per ISO 5832-3and are intended for cement-retained and screw-retained restorations. An internal hexagon allows connection to the Nucleoss Tpure implant. Nucleoss Dental Abutments are available in Straight, Angled, Multi-unit, Ball and Equator designs. The Angled abutment is provided in angles of 10, 20 and 30 degrees. The Multi-unit abutment is available in a straight design, and angled designs of 17 and 30 degrees. Nucleoss Covers, Comfort Cap and Gingiva Formers are available for use during the healing period following surgical placement of the implant. The Nucleoss Tpure Implant System also includes metal housings combined with caps to provide a secure coupling for the denture prosthetic attachment to the Ball and Equator abutments.

All of the Nucleoss Tpure Implant System components are single-use devices. The Nucleoss Tpure Implant and related Cover is provided sterile. The Nucleoss Abutments and accessories are provided nonsterile for end-user sterilization.

V. INDICATIONS FOR USE

VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE

The technological characteristics of the Nucleoss Tpure Implant System was compared to the predicate devices to determine substantial equivalence. The Nucleoss Toure Dental Implant, Nucleoss Dental Abutments, Cover, Gingiva Former and Comfort Cap, have a similiar indication for use, material composition, surface treatment and design as the predicate devices.

The Nucleoss Tpure Dental Implant indication for use differs from the predicate Straumann Bone Level Tapered Implants (K140878) in that the Nucleoss Tpure Dental Implant is intended for delayed loading only, and is not restricted to four implants in edentulous patients. These differences do not raise new concerns because limiting the use of the dental implant to delayed loading is a more conservative surgical approach, and the use of fewer implants for a tissue-supported overdenture is a standard clinical protocol.

Similarly, differences in the Indication for Use of the Nucleoss Abutment System and the predicates [Klockner Dental Implant Abutments (K151194 and K122988), and Zimmer Zfx Titanium Abutment for Biomet 3i Certain Implant System (K141544)] do not affect substantial equivalence because each of the abutments are intended for use with specific dental implants for the purpose of providing support for prosthetic reconstructions.

The Nucleoss Tpure Dental Implant with a maximum implant diameter of 5.0mm differs from the predicate, Straumann Bone Level Tapered Implants (K140878) maximum implant diameter of 4.8 mm. This difference is compatible with the variation in anatomical sizes of the human jaw bone, and does not present a worst-case scenario for the device.

The Nucleoss Straight and Angled Abutment designs are for single or multiple cement retained restorations, whereas the predicate Klockner Dental Implant Abutments (K151194 and K122988) are only for multiple screw retained restorations.

The Nucleoss Multi-unit Abutment differs from the Klockner Dental Implant Abutments (K151194 and K122988) abutments for multiple and single restorations with respect to connection type. The Nucleoss Multi-unit Abutments have internal hex connection, while the Klockner abutmnts have internal cone connection. Performance testing of the Nucleoss Dental Implant combined with the Nucleoss Multi-unit Abutment demonstrated substantial equivalence of the connection platform design.

The Nucleoss Abutment platform diameter range (4.2mm – 6.0mm) differs from that of the predicate Zimmer Zfx Titanium Abutment for Biomet 3i Certain Implant System (K141544) which has platform diameters of 3.4 mm to 6.0mm.

6

The Nucleoss Tpure Implant System also offers an additional overdenture abutment design, the Equator Abutment. The Equator Abutment provides a different connection design for the denture but does not change the intended use of supporting a denture restoration.

The Gingiva Former and Cover differs from the predicate, Straumann Sterile Healing Solution (K161677) with respect to additional platform diameter sizes. The additional platform sizes are provided so as to accomodate the Nucleoss Dental Implant.
