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.

Description of Device: GC Fuji Triage EP is a bioactive glass ionomer for temporary restorative material. The device consists of powder and liquid filled in a capsule and is mixed with a capsule mixer. Then, the mixture is applied directly to a cavity with a capsule applier. As an additional improvement, a proprietary elongation tip can be attached to the capsule nozzle which enables access to small or deep cavities. GC Fuji Triage EP contains CPP-ACP (casein phosphopeptide - amorphous calcium phosphate) in the formulation. CPP-ACP was added to moderate the strength of cement for its use and provide a source of Ca+ and HP04-2. CPP-ACP was chosen as the additive for regulating the strength because it does not interfere with the setting reaction of the material. GC Fuji Triage EP Package: Capsule (Powder 0.30g/Liquid 0.15g) - QTY: 50 Shades available: Pink, White Shelf Life and Storage Conditions: - Shelf Life 2 years - - -Recommended for optimal performance, store in a cool and dark place. 4-25℃ (39 - 77°F) - 4.

Clinical Performance Testing No clinical testing has been performed on this device. #### 7. Comparison of Technology: The hardening mechanism of GC Fuji Triage EP and GC Fuji Triage are substantially equivalent in principle. Thus, the applicant device and the predicate device are the same in function and similar in composition and intended use. This supports that the compatibility of the applicant device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. The following differences may be noted between GC Fuji Triage EP and the predicate devices: - GC Fuji Triage EP contains CPP-ACP (casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate) in ● the formulation. - GC Fuji Triage EP includes the elongation tip. - The applicant device, Fuji Triage EP, is a glass ionomer cement while MI VARNISH is a topical fluoride varnish. #### 8. Conclusion The applicant device, GC Fuji Triage EP, is substantially equivalent in qualitative features to the comparative device, FUJI Triage. {5}------------------------------------------------ | | Applicant Device | Primary Device | Reference Device | |-----------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | GC Fuji Triage EP | FUJI Triage<br>K013198 | MI VARNISH<br>K102808 | | Trade name | GC Fuji Triage EP | FUJI Triage<br>K013198 | MI VARNISH<br>K102808 | | Manufacturer | GC Corporation | GC Corporation | GC Corporation | | Product<br>category | Restorative glass ionomer cement | Restorative glass ionomer cement | Topical fluoride varnish | | Powder/Liquid<br>ratio | Powder 0.30g/Liquid 0.15g | Powder 0.30g/Liquid 0.15g | Not applicable | | Indications for<br>Use | 1.
