Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being submitted to relay additional information and device evaluation.The following sections are being reported: h6: component code was added: 4755.H6: "type" of investigation codes were added: 4109, 4110, 4111 and 3331.H6: investigation findings code was added: 213.H6: investigation conclusions code was added: 4310 and 4315.Osseointegrated dental implants are an important tool in prosthetic dentistry and provide edentulous patients with alternative replacements for teeth.Although most implants are extremely successful, with survival rates of up to 98% for implants placed in controlled clinical settings, implants can fail.One problem associated with this minor defect rate is bone loss, which is likely attributed external factors including medical conditions (e.G., diabetes, poor bone quality, etc.) / patient habits (e.G., smoking) and surgical technique.A summary investigation has been completed for bone loss events recognizing that a definitive root cause cannot be identified due to a wide range of external factors (non-design or manufacturing related), including medical conditions (e.G., diabetes, poor bone quality, etc.) / patient habits (e.G., smoking) and surgical technique.Previously completed investigations for bone loss have not identified any signals indicating potential non-conformances affecting the manufacturing and sterilization processes.Furthermore, the probability of manufacturing or design defects that might lead to bone loss and escaping the available detections has been assessed and found remote and almost nonexistent.Dhr review was completed for the subject lot number (2019031329).It was confirmed that all operations and inspections were executed as per applicable procedure.No deviations or non-conformances, which could have caused or contributed to the reported event was noted as part of the dhr.Lot was inspected and passed all acceptance criteria by qa.Complaint history review was performed for the reported lot number (2019031329) for similar events and no other complaint was identified.Monthly trending to date has not identified any statistical triggers suggesting potential design or manufacturing related issues.Previously completed investigations for bone loss problems reported in association with implant failure have not identified any signals indicating potential non-conformances impacting the manufacturing and sterilization processes.Therefore, escalation to capa is not required.
