The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and physical performance of a dental composite, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
The device is a flowable composite material used for dental restorations, which is a structural repair rather than a therapeutic treatment for disease or injury.
No
The device is a restorative dental material (flowable composite) used for filling cavities and repairing defects, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Its intended use and the description focus on
physical and mechanical properties after polymerization, not diagnostic capabilities.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical material (flowable composite) packaged in capsules and syringes, which is a hardware component, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all related to the direct restoration and repair of tooth structure. These are procedures performed directly on the patient's tooth, not on a sample of bodily fluid or tissue in vitro (outside the body) for diagnostic purposes.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "flowable composite" that sets with light. This is a material used for filling cavities and repairing teeth, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "Tooth structure," which is consistent with a dental restorative material.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical and mechanical properties of the material (depth of cure, strength, shrinkage, etc.), which are relevant to its function as a dental restorative, not its ability to diagnose a condition.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

Device Description
The new Bulk Fill Flowable Composite manufactured by Septodont Louisville is a low viscosity, radiopaque flowable composite which sets upon exposure to a high-intensity blue light source. After polymerization, it exhibits low stress on the bond with the tooth, and it has a high polymerization conversion. This high degree of polymerization is achieved with short curing times and creates improved physical and mechanical properties. The new Bulk Fill Flowable Composite is packaged in single dose capsules and syringes. The shades offered with Bulk Fill Flowable Composite are: A1, A2, A3, A3.5.

Technological Characteristics
The new Bulk Fill Flowable Composite resin system consists of 3 major components. The resin system was designed using our crosslinkable proprietary monomer DDCDMA (Dimer Dicarbamate Dimethacrylate). A system has been designed using DDCDMA where EBPADMA (Ethoxylated Bisphenol "A" Dimethacrylate) is the base resin and UDMA (Urethacrylate) is added as a minor component. This is similar to the resin system used in N'Durance, a Septodont Universal composite cleared by the FDA K072150.
This 3-component resin polymerizes using a modified initiating system The chemistry of this resin system results in low stress on the bond with the tooth and high conversion of monomers into polymers. Additionally, these resins impart a greater hydrophobicity and are less sensitive to changes in atmospheric moisture.
The filler system in the new Bulk Fill Flowable Composite contains Ytterbium Fluoride mono dispersed nano sized particles for dental application. Silica, as well as an acid resistant silanated Barium glass.
When irradiated by light, the methacrylate functionalities of the resins and fillers undergo, in conjunction with the photoinitiator system, a light-induced polymerization to form a hard composite that is bonded to the tooth structure with a permanent dental adhesive.
Substantial Equivalence:
Biocompatibility:
Bulk-Fill Flowable composite was tested following ISO 10993-1:2009 and ISO 7405:2008. The conclusion of the assessment is that the product is biocompatible and safe for its intended use.

Summary of Physical Tests
This 510(k) submission includes data from bench testing to evaluate the performance of Bulk Fill Flowable Composite in comparison with its predicates. The standard utilized was ISO 4049:2009. The properties that were tested include Depth of Cure, Conversion, Compressive Strength, Diametral Tensile Strength, Microhardness, Volume Shrinkage Stress, Water Absorption and Solubility.
Indications
Bulk Fill Flowable Composite has very similar indications as the claimed predicate devices Venus Diamond Flowable Composite (K091635), Filtek Bulk Fill (K120453) and X-Tra Base VOCO (K123773). Specifically, Bulk Fill Flowable Composite and Filtek Bulk Fill (K120453) are very similar in their indications, with the main difference being that Filtek Bulk Fill also includes Pit and Fissure and Core build-up indications.
Technology
The delivery and curing methods for the predicate devices are similar to that of Bulk Fill Flowable composite as well. They are all flowable composites which are applied directly to the site from a syringe or single unit dose tips. Additionally, all of these devices polymerize when irradiated by light to form a hard composite that is bonded to the tooth structure with a permanent dental adhesive.
Conclusion:
Information provided in this 510(k) submission shows that Bulk Fill Flowable Composite is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate devices in terms of intended use, indications for use, physical properties and technological characteristics. In addition to being substantially equivalent, the Bulk Fill Flowable Composite has also been determined to be biocompatible and safe for its intended use.
