Visual inspection performed by r&d product manager on 23 july 2018.The analysis has been conducted both with the pieces available and images attached to this complaint.During the analysis it is evaluated that the threaded part of the terminal is scratched.In addition also the threaded part of the implant hole is broken.It seem that the user has not completed the screwing of the terminal inside the cup before proceeding with the impaction phase and this caused extra stress on the threaded part causing the fracture.
