The composite has approximately 79% of load filler (in mass). APS is the acronym for Advanced Polymerization System, and it consists of a combination of different photo initiators that interact among each other amplifying the curing capacity of light emitted from light-curing units. #### Opus Bulk Fill Flow APS Opus Bulk Fill Flow is a bulk-fill flowable light-curing composite (fluid) recommended to be used as base and lining of restorations on posterior teeth. That feature associated to its cure depth – due to the composite's translucency – allows Opus Bulk Fill Flow to be applied in increments of up to 4mm, reducing the time for restoring large cavities. ## H) Substantial Equivalence: The Opus Bulk Fill APS and Opus Bulk Fill Flow APS is equivalent with the following products: | Equivalence | 510(k) Number | Model | Company | |-------------|---------------|------------------------------|------------------------| | Predicate | K111958 | TETRIC EVOCERAM<br>BULK FILL | IVOCLAR<br>VIVADENT AG | | Reference | K150393 | TETRIC EVOFLOW<br>BULK FILL | IVOCLAR<br>VIVADENT AG | {5}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/5/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for DentsCare.
