Why it was recalled

Engaging titanium base contains a dimensional condition that allows vertical movement of the titanium base after the prosthetic screw is torqued to the recommended value, which if undetected and installed on the implant, may lead to abutment/screw fracture, which could result in the abutment/screw/crown being ingested by the patient.

FDA root cause category: Process design
