Intended Use
GlassLok is intended for use as a dual cure glass ionomer band cement for use in an orthodontic or dental office.
Device Story
GlassLok is a dual-cure resin-modified glass ionomer cement used by orthodontists or dentists to bond molar bands to enamel or metal substrates. The device is supplied as a two-part system (powder and liquid) mixed at a 2:1 ratio on a mixing pad. The material is hydrophilic, allowing for use in wet or dry fields. Once applied to the band and tooth, it sets chemically within 5 minutes or can be light-cured for 20 seconds. Available in natural or blue shades for visibility during removal. The device provides a mechanical bond to tooth and metal surfaces; it is intended for professional use in clinical settings.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated via shear bond strength testing against predicate GC Fuji Ortho LC on enamel and metal substrates. Additional testing conducted per ISO 9917-2:2017. Biocompatibility assessed per ISO 10993 and ISO 7405:2018, including cytotoxicity and oral toxicity testing, confirming no adverse local or systemic effects.
Technological Characteristics
Resin-modified glass ionomer cement; powder/liquid formulation. Methacrylate-based liquid. Dual-cure (chemical and light-cure). Hydrophilic properties. Biocompatible. Tested per ISO 9917-2:2017, ISO 10993, and ISO 7405:2018. Shelf life: 2 years at room temperature.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a dual cure glass ionomer band cement for bonding molar bands to enamel or metal substrates in orthodontic or dental office settings.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A bracket adhesive resin and tooth conditioner is a device composed of an adhesive compound, such as polymethylmethacrylate, intended to cement an orthodontic bracket to a tooth surface.

Dear Paula Wendland:
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
{1}------------------------------------------------
801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for 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).

### 5.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICANTS DEVICE:
GlassLok is intended for use as a dual cure glass ionomer band cement for use in an orthodontic or dental office. GlassLok can be used to bond molar bands to an enamel or metal substrate in a wet or dry field due to its hydrophilic properties. GlassLok is available in natural or blue shade (for easy disclosure at removal).
GlassLok is dispensed in a 2 part (powder and liquid) format with bottle dispensing. A 15cc and 25 cc liquid (in blue or natural shade) along with a 15gm or 100gm powder component will be available as separate components. A convenience kit will also be available in Blue or Natural shade in a starter or economy volume.
GlassLok powder is dispensed to a mixing pad using a measuring scoop and mixed with GlassLok liquid in a ratio of 2:1. The mixed GlassLok composite is then applied to the inside of an orthodontic band and applied to a properly prepared tooth structure. Working Time is 2 minutes and setting time is 5 minutes once the working time has expired. GlassLok can also be cured with a curing light for 20 seconds, if required for polymerization.
Associated accessories include a measuring scoop. Spatula and mixing pad.

performance of GlassLok when compared to GC Fuji Ortho LC for shear bond strength to enamel and metal.
In addition, testing per ISO 9917-2:2017 was conducted on both GlassLok and GC Fuji Ortho LC resulting in similar results between the two products.
A biocompatibility evaluation was also conducted in accordance with ISO 10993 and ISO 7405:2018 for the composition of the GlassLok device and determined that the device did not directly or through the release of material constituents produce adverse local or systemic effects; it is not carcinogenic or mutagenic, and will not produce adverse reproductive or developmental effects. As a supplement to the biocompatibility evaluation, both cytotoxicity and oral toxicity testing was conducted on GlassLok.
## 5.6 CONCLUSION:
Based on nonclinical testing conducted for shear bond strength and testing conducted per ISO 9917-2:2017 resulting in similar performance, substantial equivalence was demonstrated between the GlassLok and the GC Fuji Ortho LC devices. In conjunction with biocompatibility demonstrated via ISO 7405:2018 and ISO 10993 evaluations, evidence has been submitted to demonstrate GlassLok is safe and equivalent to or better than the GC Fuji Ortho LC device in terms of performance as a band cement.
