Nobel Biocare recalls temporary dental abutment components (catalog no. 36664) due to potential incorrect screw that may loosen, risking implant stability.
Packages of abutments may contain an incorrect screw. While the screw will tighten, it cannot be guaranteed that the screw will not loosen. In case the screw loosens the abutment should be retightened with the correct screw.
