Event occurred (b)(6) 2022, but vulcan custom dental was not notified there was an issue with the procedure until 02/24/2023.A review of the surgical plan and drilling protocol indicate case was properly planned and the errant placement of the implant was very likely a result of the surgical guide not being fully seated.Vulcan custom dental requested the surgical guide from the doctor for evaluation, but were informed the doctor had disposed of the guide.

Utilizing surgical guide, print 003, doctor drilled to depth and placed implant.When he finished and took the guide off, the doctor felt as though something wasn't right so he flapped the site and saw the implant was parallel to the buccal plate but 50% out of the bone.The doctor then backed out the implant and replaced it by hand and fully grafted the patient, closed the patient up and sent them home.
