CTx21 Kit Dental Products Recalled for Subpotent Sodium Fluoride Content

Dental Alliance Holdings LLC is recalling the CTx21 Kit because the product contains less sodium fluoride than stated on the label. Affected lots were distributed nationwide.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class III recall. The hazard is subpotency (lower active ingredient than labeled), which is a formulation/labeling issue. The source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or adverse events, and the reduced fluoride content represents a loss of efficacy rather than a direct safety threat. This meets the criteria for Moderate severity.
