Zimvie complaint number (b)(4).A4: weight unknown / not provided.A summary investigation has been completed for peri-implantitis 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 these events have not identified any signals indicating potential non-conformances affecting the manufacturing and sterilization processes.Furthermore, the probability of a manufacturing or design defect that might lead to peri-implantitis occurring and escaping the available detections has been assessed and found remote and almost non-existent.Should additional information be received which indicates that the device may have caused or contributed to the event, an additional report will be submitted.
