                ACTION: Notice of availability.
                -----------------------------------------------------------------------
                SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is announcing
                the availability of two draft guidances entitled ``Dental Composite
                Resin Devices--Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions'' and
                ``Dental Curing Lights--Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions.''
                These draft guidance documents provide recommendations for device
                description, performance testing, and labeling to include in 510(k)
                submissions for dental composite resin devices and dental curing
                lights. When final, these guidances will supersede the guidances
                ``Dental Composite Resin Devices--Premarket Notification [510(k)]
                Submissions'' dated October 26, 2005 and ``Dental Curing Lights--
                Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions'' dated March 27, 2006. The
                recommendations in these draft guidances are intended to promote
                consistency and facilitate efficient review of these submissions. These
                draft guidances are not final nor are they for implementation at this
                time.

                SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
                I. Background
                 These draft guidance documents provide recommendations for device
                description, performance testing, and labeling to include in 510(k)
                submissions for dental composite resin devices and dental curing
                lights. Dental composite resin devices are devices intended to fill and
                restore defects or carious lesions in teeth. The device may be supplied
                as a two-part base and catalyst system that is self-cured or a one-part
                system that is cured via photoinitiation. Dental curing lights are
                devices that emit non-ionizing optical radiation intended to
                photopolymerize dental restorative resins. These guidances, when final,
                will supersede ``Dental Composite Resin Devices--Premarket Notification
                [510(k)] Submissions'' dated October 26, 2005 and ``Dental Curing
                Lights--Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions'' dated March 27,
                2006. The recommendations in these draft guidances are intended to
                promote consistency and facilitate efficient review of these
                submissions.
                 These draft guidances are being issued consistent with FDA's good
                guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). These draft guidances,
                when finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on Dental
                Composite Resin Devices--Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions
                and Dental Curing Lights--Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions.
                They do not establish any rights for any person and are not binding on
                FDA or the public. You can use an alternative approach if it satisfies
                the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations.
                II. Electronic Access
                 Persons interested in obtaining copies of the draft guidances may
                do so by downloading an electronic copy from the internet. A search

                III. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
                 While these guidances contain no new collection of information,
                they do refer to previously approved FDA collections of information.
                The previously approved collections of information are subject to
                review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork
