Manufacturer Narrative
|
The driver was returned in the original package.The part was measured and verified to be an inclusive handpiece implant driver, long (70-1071-srg0161).The driver was confirmed to be manufactured in 2016-11 according to the dhr.The driver was measured and the results showed the key feature for implant retention was out of specification.It is possible that the root cause is the driver has worn out over the years and result in fail engagement with implant, which can be caused by excessive usage and force applied when engaging implant's components.This complaint will be kept on record for track and trending purposes.
