ALSO, THE RECOMMENDED IMPLANT INSERTION TORQUE AND IMPLANT ATTACHMENT TORQUE IS 30N-CM. IF THE IMPLANT PLACEMENT TORQUE IS LESS THAN 30 N-CM, THEN THE ATTACHMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE HAND TIGHTENED. THE IMPLANT INSERTION TORQUE SHOULD NOT EXCEED 70 N-CM; IF 70 N-CM IS REACHED PRIOR TO FULL SEATING, THE IMPLANT SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE OSTEOTOMY SHOULD BE ENLARGED.

THE RECORDS MANAGEMENT DATABASE SPECIFIES THAT THE IMPLANTS MET THE SPECIFICATIONS AND WERE APPROVED FOR PRODUCT RELEASE. ANY DISCREPANCIES OR ISSUES OF NON-CONFORMANCE WERE SUCCESSFULLY RESOLVED PRIOR TO THE RELEASE OF THE PARTS. IMPLANTS WERE MANUFACTURED TO SPECIFICATIONS. NO FURTHER ACTION IS REQUIRED.
