  • Causa
    The fastener on the mandible distractor may become prematurely separated from the proximal foot plate. in the event that the mandible distractor becomes disengaged from the proximal foot plate during device implantation, surgical delay may occur if another device is not available in the surgical suite. if the mandible distractor becomes disengaged from the proximal foot plate after procedure, a repeat surgery may be required to replace the mandible distractor/foot plates. there may be a risk of local infection as a result of repeat surgery caused by the disengagement since the product is in the oral cavity.
