Device Story

Llis and Vittra APS are radiopaque, light-curing composite resins for dental restorations. Vittra APS utilizes an Advanced Polymerization System (APS), a combination of photoinitiators that enhance curing capacity under various light-curing units and reduce shade/opacity shifts during polymerization. Vittra APS contains zirconia complex filler particles (200nm average size, 72-82% weight load) and is free of Bis-GMA and Bis-EMA. Llis uses methacrylate monomers, silanes, and fillers. Used in dental clinics by professionals for direct/indirect restorations, core build-ups, and splinting. The material is applied in increments, light-cured, and polished. Benefits include improved aesthetics, mechanical strength, and ease of polishing. The device is stored at 5-30°C.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evaluated per ISO 4049 and ISO 10993-1. Tests included depth of cure, color stability, radiopacity, flexural strength, water sorption/solubility, Knoop hardness, conversion rate, elasticity module, compressive strength, and fracture toughness. Accelerated and long-term stability studies confirmed a 3-year shelf life. Comparative studies against recognized commercial composites (Estelite Quick, Filtek Z350 XT, Tetric N-Ceram) demonstrated Vittra APS performance is statistically equal or superior in mechanical and aesthetic metrics.

Its composition was based in modern concepts so that methacrylate monomers, silanes and fillers with adequate size distribution were combined to produce a product with differentiated physical, mechanical and optical properties. Llis presents a simplified shade system, offering enamel, dentin and incisal shades. {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo and contact information for DentsCare LTDA. The logo features a stylized letter D with three horizontal lines inside. The contact information includes the company's address, which is AV. EDGAR NELSON MEISTER, 474, JOINVILLE, SANTA CATARINA 89219-501 BRAZIL, and their phone number, which is Ph: 55 - 47 - 3441-6131. ### Vittra APS Vittra APS is a highly aesthetic light-curing composite resin recommended for restorations of all classes in anterior and posterior teeth. The composite is radiopaque; its loading particles are composed by spheres of a zirconia complex with average load particle size of 200nm, with total inorganic load of 72% to 82% in weight (52% to 60% in volume). Those characteristics contribute to enhance both mechanical and aesthetic properties, especially evidenced by how easy it is to obtain proper polishing and by the long-lasting surface shining. Vittra APS' formula is free of Bis-GMA and Bis-EMA, following the present trend of products free of Bisphenol A (BPA). APS is the acronym for Advanced Polymerization System, and it consists of a combination of different photoinitiators that interact among each other amplifying the curing capacity of light emitted from light-curing units. Added to different materials, the system provides different advantages. In the case of Vittra APS, APS adds as main benefit the reduction or elimination of visual shade and opacity alteration before/after light curing, which enhances the predictability of the result. Another factor is that, although there is very little concentration of camphorquinone - that has a yellowish aspect - APS has great power of polymerization allowing greater degree of conversion. The APS system is activated by any type of lightcuring unit available on the market, even those with less power or narrow range of wavelength. ### H) Substantial Equivalence: The Llis, VITTRA APS is equivalent with the following products: | 510(k) Number | Model | Company | |---------------|---------------------------------------------------|------------| | K183476 | 3MTM ESPETM FiltekTMZ250 Universal<br>Restorative | 3M COMPANY | {5}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/5/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo and contact information for DentsCare LTDA.

Thus, there is no<br>difference between the samples. | All results are within the range<br>specified by ISO 4049. | ATTACHMENT 09 –<br>SENSITIVITY TO<br>ENVIRONMENT<br>LIGHTING | | Depth of Cure - ISO<br>4049 | According to ISO 4049, the<br>specification for this material is that its<br>curing depth is: > 1.0 mm for opaque<br>materials and > 1.5 mm for non-<br>opaque materials. | All results are greater than the<br>specified threshold, therefore<br>the material is considered to<br>be in conformity. | ATTACHMENT 10 –<br>DEPTH OF CURE | | Colour tone stability<br>after radiation and<br>water absorption -<br>ISO 4049 | The acceptance must be performed<br>provided that there is no more than a<br>small change in color, it must be<br>proven as follows:<br><br>a) comparisons should be made<br>by visual inspection and analysed by<br>three observers with normal vision,<br>who do not identify any differences in<br>color, this comparison must be carried<br>at a distance of 200 to 300 mm for a<br>period of no more than 2 seconds;<br><br>b) perform the comparison cited<br>in a) in a light chamber at Day Light -<br>D65 mode;<br><br>c) perform the comparison in<br>paragraph a), by placing the specimen<br>on a diffuse white background of 90%<br>approximate reflectance, and it should<br>have as a limiting size the size of the<br>specimen, which must be surrounded<br>by a grey background with a diffuse<br>reflectance of 30 ± 5%. | All comparisons were carried<br>out by three observers with<br>normal eyesight (Tiago<br>Vicente, Josley<br>Habinzeureuter and Simone<br>Brasil Carvalho), certified by a<br>competent physician. They<br>did not attest to any color<br>difference in the samples<br>analyzed.<br><br>The results demonstrate that<br>the product meets ISO 4049. | ATTACHMENT 11 -<br>COLOUR TONE<br>STABILITY AFTER<br>RADIATION AND<br>WATER<br>ABSORPTION. | | Radiopacity - ISO<br>4049 | Compare the individual optical drives<br>of each aluminium scale against the<br>density of each scale (this check must<br>be performed using ISO 4049 as<br>reference). Get the value of the optical<br>density/grey value for the δs thickness<br>of the specimen and determine the<br>corresponding value of aluminium, δa. | The values found in the<br>specimens are between the<br>second and third scale of the<br>aluminum part, proving that<br>the material is radiolucent<br>according to the requirements<br>of ISO 4049 | ATTACHMENT 12 -<br>RADIOPACITY | | Flexing Resistance -<br>ISO 4049 | According to the EN ISO 4049<br>standard the specification for flexural<br>strength is ≥80MPa. | All results are greater than the<br>specified threshold, therefore<br>the material is considered as<br>conformant. | ATTACHMENT 13 -<br>FLEXING<br>RESISTANCE | | Water sorption and<br>solubility.<br>- ISO 4049 | Sorption: Maximum of 40 µm/mm³.<br><br>Solubility: maximum of 7.5 µm/mm³. | The results demonstrate that the<br>product complies the<br>specification in the EN ISO<br>4049 Standard. | ATTACHMENT 14 -<br>WATER SORPTION<br>AND SOLUBILITY. | | Accelerated Stability<br>Studies | Study created to accelerate the<br>possible chemical degradation and/or<br>physical changes of the product in<br>forced conditions of storage. | Considering the results<br>observed at the end of the<br>274 days test period, the<br>shelf-life of 3 years in the<br>storage condition of 30 °C for<br>the product can be confirmed. | ATTACHMENT 15 -<br>ACCELERATED<br>STABILITY STUDIES | | Evaluation Report Of<br>Long-Term Stability | Study designed to verify the physical<br>and chemical characteristics of the | Considering the results<br>observed at the end of the 36 | ATTACHMENT 16 -<br>EVALUATION | | (Shelf) | product during the expected shelf life.<br>The results are used to confirm the<br>expiration date and storage conditions. | months of the long-term test<br>(shelf), the shelf life of 3 years<br>in the storage condition of<br>30°C for the product can be<br>confirmed. | REPORT OF LONG-<br>TERM STABILITY<br>(SHELF) | | Color change during<br>polymerization -<br>Study carried out at<br>Universidade<br>Estadual de Ponta<br>Grossa (UEPG) and<br>Universidade Federal<br>do Maranhão | A comparative analysis will be carried<br>out between commercial composites<br>of internationally recognised quality<br>and the composite under analysis. It is<br>defined that the acceptance criterion<br>for this test is if the composite under<br>study has a value statistically ≤ than<br>the competing composites analysed. | Vittra APS showed the least<br>change in color, being similar<br>to the resins Estelite Quick<br>(Tokuyama) and Filtek Z350<br>XT (3M ESPE). | ATTACHMENT 17<br>- COLOR CHANGE<br>DURING<br>POLYMERIZATION | | Knoop hardness<br>Study carried out at<br>Universidade<br>Estadual de Ponta<br>Grossa (UEPG) and<br>Universidade Federal<br>do Maranhão | A comparative analysis will be carried<br>out between commercial composites<br>of internationally recognised quality<br>and the composite under analysis.
