Event Description
|
In this event it is reported that ceramx mono+ m3 syr refill that was used in course of treatment of a patient may have caused an allergic reaction in the patient.Mentioned symptoms that patient experienced: swollen and inflamed gums.The patient was treated with various materials and it is not certain which item was decisive for the allergic reaction.The dentist has therefore contacted all manufacturers whose products came into contact with the patient.It is therefore no longer possible for the practice to say which ceram x was used (shade, lot).A follow up contact determined that the allergist could not do an allergy test for dental products, but he ruled out an allergy from our composite.
