Safety is supported by fluoride release data.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. The device meets DIN, ISO, and ADA standards for dental cements. Fluoride release data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Composite luting cement composed of powder and liquid. Ingredients include strontium aluminum lanthanum fluoro silicate glass, pigment white 6, and phosphine oxide. Meets DIN, ISO, and ADA standards for dental cements.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adhesive cementation of all-porcelain, composite, and metal inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges, passive and threaded posts, and veneers in dental patients.

ESPE is submitting a 510(k) premarket notification for its composite luting cement, tradenamed **Composite® Aplicap® Composite® Aplicap®** is indicated for the adhesive cementation of (all-porcelain-, composite-, and metal-) inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges, passive and threaded posts, and veneers. The product is composed of powder and liquid portions.
For composition, ESPE is claiming substantial equivalence to its previously cleared dental cement **Sono®-Cem (K913966)** and tooth shade resin material **Pertac® II (K962440)**. The ingredients in ESPE’s **Composite® Aplicap®** are contained in **Sono®-Cem and/or Pertac® II**, with the exception of: (1) strontium aluminum lanthanum fluoro silicate glass, which is contained in ESPE’s **Ketac-Fil Aplicap Plus (K973262)**; and (2) pigment white 6 and phosphine oxide, which are contained in ESPE’s **Protemp® Garant temporary crown and bridge resin material (K950203)**. For indications, ESPE is claiming substantial equivalence to its **Sono®-Cem product**, **Kuraray Co. Ltd.’s Panavia® 21**, **Vivadent’s Variolink II**, **3M’s Scotchbond Resin Cement**, and **Kerr’s Nexus dental cements**, all of which have substantially similar intended uses.
To support substantial equivalence to predicate products, the physical and technical characteristics of **Composite® Aplicap®** have been compared to the listed predicates. **Composite® Aplicap®** meets the requirements of DIN, ISO and ADA standards for dental cements.

Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
