FDA Product Code KIF: Resin, Root Canal Filling

FDA product code KIF covers root canal filling resins used in endodontic treatment.

These materials are used to obturate and seal the root canal system after pulp removal, preventing bacterial recontamination of the treated canal. Modern resin-based sealers bond to both dentin and the core filling material, improving the hermetic seal of the root canal filling.

KIF devices are Class II medical devices, regulated under 21 CFR 872.3820 and reviewed by the FDA Dental panel.

Leading manufacturers include Meta Biomed Co., Ltd., Innovative Bioceramix, Inc. and Maruchi.
