Recall orthodontic wire, Highland Metals

Product group Dental products
Reference 00210/08

The company Highland Metals Inc. informed about a recall concerning the orthodontic wire ”stainless steel arch wire progressive lower” with lot number 8542. The reason is that diameter 0.16 was mislabelled as diameter 018 which possibly results in a slower as expected movement of the patient's teeth.

Advisory Notice is only available in German language.
