Intended Use
Treatment of hypersensitive teeth. Use on exposed dentin and root sensitivity. Under temporary restoratives and cements where post-operative sensitivity is of concern.
Device Story
PCXX Varnish is a 5% sodium fluoride varnish designed to reduce tooth sensitivity. It functions by forming a protective film when topically applied to enamel and dentin surfaces. The device consists of a rosin-based mixture in an ethanol solution, supplied in a single-unit dose package with an applicator brush. It is intended for professional use by dental clinicians in a clinical setting. By creating a physical barrier on the tooth surface, the varnish mitigates sensitivity, providing relief to patients experiencing dentin or root hypersensitivity and protecting against post-operative sensitivity under temporary restorations.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on the use of identical chemical components (rosin/colophony derivatives) and formulation (ethanol solution) as legally marketed predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
5% Sodium Fluoride varnish; rosin (colophony) or rosin derivative (CAS# 65997-06-0) in ethanol solution; single-unit dose packaging with applicator brush; topical application; non-electronic; no software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring treatment of hypersensitive teeth, including exposed dentin and root sensitivity, or under temporary restoratives and cements to address post-operative sensitivity.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Cavity varnish is a device that consists of a compound intended to coat a prepared cavity of a tooth before insertion of restorative materials. The device is intended to prevent penetration of restorative materials, such as amalgam, into the dentinal tissue.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an external cleaning solution, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 872.9.

# 4.&5. Description and Intended Use
PCxx Varnish is 5% Sodium Fluoride Varnish that reduces tooth sensitivity by forming a film when topically applied to enamel and dentin surfaces.
The properties, intended use and composition are equivalent to the predicated devices and other current varnishes which are rosin based insoluble mixtures that form a film when applied to tooth surfaces.
{1}------------------------------------------------
### Technological Characteristics 6.
PCxx Varnish used the same rosin (colophony) and rosin derivatives that are used PCXX Vanush ascu the same room (0010) - 100 persons include but are not limited to Duraflor, Duraphat and Fluorilaq.
The product comes in a single unit dose package containing the varnish and separate applicator brush.
## Performance and Comparison Data 7.
The sealant used in predicate devises is the same material used in the submitted I he sealant used in predicate devises to the rosin derivative of CAS# 65997-06-0
devices. The sealant used is a colophony, rosin or rosin derivative for this readuct devices. The sealant used is a colophority, room or randards established for this product
in an ethanol solution. There are no performance standards established to this produ in an ethanol solution. There are no perfections of essess thows it to be substantially equivalent, performance will be the same.
