DIAC - Non-Compliant & Counterfeit Markets
Continues to be a significant issue for the industry, dentists and patient safety
DIAC and members actively engaged in combating non-compliant & counterfeit products.
Tactics to date have made some impact but we need to do more
DIAC Non Compliant Strategy
Advocacy Education Communication
Advocacy Industry leadership
Partnerships and collaboration with all dental industry associations Health Canada, communication and meetings PDC Trade Show oversight, inspection & education Code of Conduct 2013 Buying strategy project Developed protocols for dentists to check product
Example:DIAC Website Non-Compliant Product ProtocolA Suggested Protocol for Checking Product for Dentists: Assign one knowledgeable person to check all product purchases when they arrive in the office Keep all ordering materials (catalogues, flyers etc.) used in ordering the product(s) until the product has been checked in, and keep
the package until the product has been entirely consumed. Manufacturers will be happy to send you a picture of their licensed products and their packaging Check each product when it arrives in the office:
Is it the same product you ordered? Does it have the same name as advertised? Does it have the same product number? Is it the same package that was advertised? Are the contents the same as advertised? (quantity, sizes, shapes, colours etc.) Is the package in English and French? Have any markings been removed/scratched out? Is the product in its original package (or a zip lock bag or other substitute container)? Do the lot number and expiry date on the package match those on the contents? Does the package or contents have markings that indicate it may have been rerouted (e.g. India only or not for sale in North
America) Is equipment CSA approved (or equivalent)?
Example:Overview of the PDC Compliance Verification Process

Advocacy
21. All Rights Reserved.23 May 2019 3M 3M Confidential.
EXAMPLE: Reducing Avoidable Product Risks E-Course from 3M Health Care Academy.
Course objectives:1. Understand the difference between gray market and counterfeit products. 2. Learn the scope of the problem. 3. Understand how others are fighting back. 4. See the benefits of keeping gray market products out of your practice. 5. Know how to spot gray market products and companies, and what to do.
DO look carefully for authorized distribution channels.
DONT be seduced by hard-to-reach businesses.
EXAMPLE: MARKET UPDATE - April 2018Dentsply Sirona continues the battle against counterfeit and grey market in Canada As you know, the fight against counterfeit goods in Canada is coming to the forefront as consumer reports and lobby groups highlight the seriousness of the problem across all channels of trade. A recent news report focused on counterfeit pharmaceutical products, but the case of professional dental products is no different, in that counterfeit products in the dental supply chain pose a serious health and safety risk to patients and to the general public in Canada and elsewhere.
Dental professionals need to be aware that businesses selling grey market goods are an easy entry point for counterfeit products to infiltrate the legitimate channels of trade and avoid detection. Canada remains on the US Priority Watch List of countries that are considered a major source of counterfeit goods, alongside China, Russia and India. In fact, the Pacific Mall in the GTA was singled out as one of the worst offenders for selling counterfeit products in North America by a recent Fraser Institute report.

Next Steps: Partner with Health Canada (HC) understand the
organization and implication of the new Medical Devices Action Plan and impact to the industry
Monitor and assist where possible in the development of an industry wide application of enforcement of HC legislation
Advocate, Educate and Communicate to the industry, ensure we support patient centric care and safety through the use of licenced manufacturers, approved products and licenced distributors.

Medical Devices Regulation in Canada
Why does Health Canada regulate dental devices and equipment? To ensure medical devices manufactured or imported into Canada meet the safety and effectiveness requirements under The Food and Drugs Act (FDA) and Medical Devices Regulations (MDRs), including:
That dental products are safe and effective Health and safety issues are addressed (e.g. counterfeit, adulterated, or online sale
of unlicensed products) Dental devices are distributed in a traceable manner Problem reporting occurs so Health Canada can track issues and take action
The MDRs: Define the scope of Health Canadas authority Establish that medical devices, including dental devices or equipment, are only for
human use Outline a risk-based classification system for medical devices Set out licensing requirements for medical devices Establish the requirements for the importation, distribution and sale of medical
devices
36
Medical devices are categorized into four classes (I, II, III and IV) based on the level of risk associated with their use:
Class I devices present the lowest potential risk Class IV devices present the highest potential risk
For example . . . Class I: Manual toothbrushes, dental floss and dental chairs Class II: Powered toothbrushes, medial gloves and dental drills Class III: Dental cements, dental crowns and dental screws Class IV: Guided tissue regeneration membranes and bone void fillers that incorporate animal tissue
derivatives for dental treatment
Medical Device Licensing in Canada
37
Medical Device Licence(MDL)
Medical Device Establishment Licence (MDEL)
Issued to Manufacturer of Class II, III, or IVdevicesManufacturer of Class I devices andimporter or seller of Class I-IV medicaldevices for human use in Canada
Issued byMedical Device Compliance andLicensing Unit (MDCLU), RegulatoryOperations and Enforcement Branch,Health Canada
The Medical Devices Bureau(MDB), Health Products andFood Branch, Health Canada
There are two types of licences issued by Health Canada for medical devices sold in Canada:
Medical Device Licensing in Canada (2)
38
MDELs are issued to establishments that: Import or distribute any class of medical device in Canada Class I medical device manufacturers There are currently over 3,000 MDEL holders (more than 2,000 domestic
and over 850 foreign)
MDEL holders must submit an Annual Licence Review (ALR) application each year, before April 1
The purpose of the annual review is to ensure continued regulatory compliance and to maintain up-to-date information on each establishment
Health Canada is working to change the MDEL fee structure In the new structure, it is envisioned that regulatory fees will be updated to
better reflect current costs
Medical Device Establishment Licences
39
Health Canada inspects domestic and foreign MDEL holders that: Manufacture Class I medical devices Import and/or distribute Class I IV medical devices
Health Canada inspections are conducted on-site (domestic and foreign) and virtually (video/teleconference, electronic file review) and assess compliance with the FDA and MDR.
The Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP) inspects domestic and foreign establishments that:
Manufacture Class II - IV medical devices
The MDSAP audits based on the ISO:13485 Standard.
