Multiple Coltene batches of the product have a pin size larger than acceptable, which may make it difficult for the forceps to fit appropriately with dental dam clamps.
Coltene Whaledent is recalling HYGENIC Simple Dam Kit Model 60019066 because some batches have forceps that are too large to fit dental dam clamps correctly. This could lead to improper use during dental procedures.
The forceps in some batches are too large, making it difficult to fit them with dental dam clamps. This could cause improper placement of dental dams during procedures, potentially affecting treatment effectiveness.
