Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-clinical testing of the Nucleoss T6 Implant System was performed following the FDA guidance: Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments, and applicable ISO and ASTM standards.
Bench Testing: The Pull-out test was performed to compare the Nucleoss T6 Implant and reference device in accordance with ASTM F543-17 Standard Specification and Test Methods for Metallic Medical Bone Screws with acceptable test results. A comparative surface area analysis was conducted on the Nucleoss T6 Implant and reference device with the original length and 3mm bone loss.
Fatigue Testing: Fatigue testing conducted in accordance with ISO 14801:2016 Dentistry- Implants-Dynamic Fatigue Test for Endosseous Dental Implants found the durability of the Nucleoss T6 Implant and Abutment combinations was acceptable. Testing was conducted on the worst-case implant abutment combinations.
Sterilization Validation: Nucleoss T6 Implants are sterilized using a gamma ray sterilization process that has been validated in accordance with ISO 11137-2 Sterilization of healthcare products-Radiation-Part 2 establishing the sterilization dose to ensure a SAL of 10-6. Nucleoss Dental Abutments are provided non-sterile for end-user steam sterilization using a traditional cycle process. Since the raw material, production process, parameters and process materials of both Tpure and the predicate device are exactly same, the same steam sterilization parameters apply to the T6 Dental abutments as was used in the predicate device.
Accelerated Aging Test and Packaging Validation Test: Nucleoss T6 implants will be packaged and labeled based on new testing that was conducted to support a shelf life of 5 years on the predicate device. Package Validation and Simulated transportation testing on the predicate device that was accelerated aged to an equivalent 5 years found that the sterility of the dental implants was maintained. Accelerated aging and packaging validation testing was not repeated for the T6 Dental Implants since the raw material, production process, parameters, process materials and all packaging materials/type of the T6 Dental Implants are exactly same as those of the predicate device.
Biocompatibility: All the materials used the T6 Dental Implant and the manufacturing processes were identical to those used in the predicate device. Biocompatibility testing was not repeated for the T6 Dental Implants since the raw material, production process, parameters and process materials of the T6 Dental Implants and abutments and the predicate device are exactly the same.

NON-CLINICAL TESTING / PERFORMANCE DATA
Non-clinical testing of the Nucleoss T6 Implant System was performed following the FDA guidance: Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Root-form Endosseous Dental Implants and Endosseous Dental Abutments, and applicable ISO and ASTM standards.
Bench Testing
The Pull-out test was performed to compare the Nucleoss T6 Implant and reference device in accordance with ASTM F543-17 Standard Specification and Test Methods for Metallic Medical Bone Screws with acceptable test results. A comparative surface area analysis was conducted on the Nucleoss T6 Implant and reference device with the original length and 3mm bone loss.
Fatigue Testing
Fatigue testing conducted in accordance with ISO 14801:2016 Dentistry- Implants-Dynamic Fatigue Test for Endosseous Dental Implants found the durability of the Nucleoss T6 Implant and Abutment combinations was acceptable. Testing was conducted on the worst-case implant abutment combinations.
Sterilization Validation
Nucleoss T6 Implants are sterilized using a gamma ray sterilization process that has been validated in accordance with ISO 11137-2 Sterilization of healthcare products-Radiation-Part 2 establishing the sterilization dose to ensure a SAL of 10-6.
Nucleoss Dental Abutments are provided non-sterile for end-user steam sterilization using a traditional cycle process. Since the raw material, production process, parameters and process materials of both Tpure and the predicate device are exactly same, the same steam sterilization parameters apply to the T6 Dental abutments as was used in the predicate device.
Accelerated Aging Test and Packaging Validation Test
Nucleoss T6 implants will be packaged and labeled based on new testing that was conducted to support a shelf life of 5 years on the predicate device. Package Validation and Simulated transportation testing on the predicate device that was accelerated aged to an equivalent 5 years found that the sterility of the dental implants was maintained.
Accelerated aging and packaging validation testing was not repeated for the T6 Dental Implants since the raw material, production process, parameters, process materials and all packaging materials/type of the T6 Dental Implants are exactly same as those of the predicate device.
Biocompatibility
All the materials used the T6 Dental Implant and the manufacturing processes were identical to those used in the predicate device.
Biocompatibility testing was not repeated for the T6 Dental Implants since the raw material, production process, parameters and process materials of the T6 Dental Implants and abutments and the predicate device are exactly the same.

CONCLUSION
Data presented in this 510(k) Submission support the substantial equivalence of the T6 Dental Implant to the predicate devices. The Nucleoss T6 Dental Implant System have the similar indication for use, material composition, design, and surface treatment to the primary predicate device and reference predicate devices. Based on the comparative assessment including minor differences with the predicate devices, and based on performance test data, the Nucleoss T6 Dental Implant System is determined to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
