• Thixotropic Properties: The gel is thick enough to stay on vertical surfaces but flows easily through the dispensing tip for pinpoint accuracy.

• 40% Phosphoric Acid: Optimized concentration for effective etching of enamel and cleaning of restorative surfaces.

• High Contrast Color: The bright red/orange gel is easily identifiable, ensuring complete removal during rinsing to prevent post-operative sensitivity.

• Uniform Etch Pattern: Creates a consistent micro-retentive surface for superior bonding strength with adhesives.

• Multi-Material Compatibility: Effective on tooth structure, ceramics, and cured composites.

K-ETCHANT GEL is an etching gel used for etching enamel, dentin, porcelain and cured-composite for adhesive restorations.

K-ETCHANT GEL is a high-viscosity etching agent designed for the acid-etching of enamel, dentin, and dental restorative materials. Formulated with 40% phosphoric acid, this thixotropic gel provides precise control during application. It is specifically engineered to stay exactly where it is placed without running, ensuring that only the targeted areas are treated. Its vibrant red color provides a sharp contrast against tooth structure and restorative materials, making it easy to see and rinse thoroughly.

The bottle design focuses on preventing leaks and ensuring the acid remains at the correct concentration.

• Primary Packaging: Squeeze-drop bottle made of chemical-resistant, opaque plastic.

• Unit Size: 1 × Bottle containing 6ml of gel.

• Cap Design: Child-resistant, screw-top nozzle that prevents evaporation and clogging.

• Labeling: High-contrast red label matching the gel color, including a QR code for quick access to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and a clear expiry indicator.

• Outer Packaging: Single-unit protective box with internal stabilization to prevent the bottle from tipping during transit.

1. Cleaning: Clean and dry the treatment area.

2. Application: Apply K-ETCHANT GEL directly to the enamel or dentin.

3. Timing: * Enamel: Leave for 30–60 seconds.

   • Dentin: Leave for 15–20 seconds.

4. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly with a water spray for 20 seconds.

5. Drying: Dry with oil-free air until the etched enamel has a chalky white appearance.

• Pretreatment Use: Ideal for use before applying bonding agents like CLEARFIL™ SE BOND or before cementing orthodontic brackets.

• Restoration Cleaning: Can be used to clean the surface of porcelain or composite restorations before repair to remove contaminants.

• Storage: Store at room temperature (2-25°C). Avoid direct sunlight.

• Safety: Always wear protective gloves and eyewear. The phosphoric acid is corrosive; avoid contact with soft tissues.

To ensure the product remains under warranty, the following conditions must be met:

• Storage Requirements: Products must be stored correctly between 2–25°C (36–77°F). Failure to store the material at these temperatures voids the warranty.

• Expiration Date: The warranty is only valid for products used before the expiration date printed on the syringe or bottle.

• Professional Use: The warranty applies only when the product is handled by licensed dental practitioners according to the official "Instructions for Use" (IFU).
