Nobel Biocare recalls 3.75x10mm dental implants with incorrect 7mm length label on packaging. This could lead to improper fit during surgery. Affected units have specific lot numbers and serial codes.
The top label of article no. 37965, lot 12129104 (immediate packaging of endosseous dental implants ) may incorrectly indicate an implant length of 7mm, which is shorter than the actual length of the implant (10mm).
Nobel Biocare is recalling certain dental implants that may have a label showing a shorter length than actual. This could cause improper fitting during surgery if used without checking the correct size.
The packaging label for these implants might incorrectly state a 7mm length instead of the actual 10mm. This could lead to improper implant placement during surgery if the surgeon uses the wrong size.
Dental patients who received the specific implant model (3.75x10mm) with lot number 12129104 are affected. Surgeons and dental clinics using these implants are most at risk.
Check for the product code REF 37965 with lot number 12129104 on the packaging. The implant is a 3.75x10mm endosseous dental implant for jaw bone support.
Look for the lot number 12129104 and product code REF 37965 on the implant packaging.
The packaging label may incorrectly indicate a 7mm length instead of the actual 10mm implant, which could lead to improper fitting during surgery.
Check the packaging for lot number 12129104 and product code REF 37965. Contact your dentist or Nobel Biocare for further instructions.
The recall is for potential improper fitting during surgery, not a direct injury risk. The hazard is low risk as it requires specific conditions to cause issues.
