The batch number could be verified.Our manufacturing q-system assures, that production and process controls are in place to ensure that batches confirm to the applicable specifications before they are distributed.The fracture of a dental implant is a known long-term complication of endosseous dental implants.The manufacturers trend analysis confirms that the reported implant fracture rate associated with its dental implants is low and remains consistent with the experience as documented in the literature.There are different reasons why implants break and this problem has been illuminated by various authors (e.G.Maeglin 1988, beumer 1989, tetsch 1991, worthington 1992).Beumer and lewis 1989 report the following causes: a) production / design flaws b) inadequate fitting of the suprastructure c) occlusal overload d) bruxism e) bone resorption around the implants f) insufficient axle alignment of the implants g) trauma h) biomechanical causes i) design of the suprastructure.

that production and process controls are in place to ensure that batches
confirm to the applicable specifications before they are distributed.?
the removal of a dental implant during surgery without the replacement
of another dental implant is a known inherent risk of the procedure due
to either lack of primary stability of the implant (patienor procedure
related).It may also include the removal of an implant after
osseointegration due to either the clinician's or patient¿s decision.The manufacturer¿s trend analysis confirms that usually procedural
errors and/or patient's condition contribute to the event.Non-fatal serious injury or device malfunction stored due to covid 19
pandemic in accordance with fda guidance "postmarketing adverse event
reporting for medical products and dietary supplements during a
