Intended Use
EtchPro® Etching Gel is intended to be used by dental professionals to etch the dentin and enamel before tooth restoration treatments.
Device Story
EtchPro® Etching Gel is a 38% phosphoric acid gel used by dental professionals in clinical settings. It is applied to dentin and enamel to prepare tooth surfaces for restoration. The gel contains phosphoric acid, silica, glycerin, and colorant. It is supplied in pre-filled syringes with applicators. The clinician applies the gel to the target area; the acidic properties etch the tooth structure to facilitate bonding. The gel is water-soluble and rinses away completely. The dark blue color provides contrast for visualization during application. The device is non-sterile and intended for prescription use.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing comparing phosphoric acid concentration, pH, viscosity, and biocompatibility against the predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
38% phosphoric acid gel; contains silica, glycerin, and colorant. Non-sterile. Supplied in pre-filled syringes (1.2 ml and 30 ml). Water-soluble (100%). Shelf life: 2 years. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for dental professionals to etch dentin and enamel prior to tooth restoration treatments.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A resin tooth bonding agent is a device material, such as methylmethacrylate, intended to be painted on the interior of a prepared cavity of a tooth to improve retention of a restoration, such as a filling.

Dear Daisy Ni:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for
{1}------------------------------------------------
devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

The intended use of the EtchPro® Etching Gel is same to that of the predicate device Pulpdent Etch-Rite Etching Gel as they are both indicated to Etch dentin and enamel. EtchPro® Etching, predicate device and reference device share the same ingredients, except EtchPro® Etching
{6}------------------------------------------------
Gel includes glycerin while Acid Etch Gel (Etch-Rite) does not. Glycerin is a humectant, a FDA recognized generally recognized as safe (GRAS) inactive ingredient.
#### Non-Clinical performance Data
The side-by-side performance tests with EtchPro® Etching Gel and Acid Etch-Rite) were conducted. The following items were tested: phosphoric acid concentration, pH, and viscosity. The biocompatibility tests were performed and the data showed that EtchPro® Etching Gel is substantial equivalent to Acid Etch Gel (Etch-Rite).
### Clinical performance Data
Clinical data was not included in this submission.
### Conclusion
Based on the similarities in indications for use and technological characteristics together with results of non-clinical performance testing, we believe that EtchPro® Etching Gel is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
