Implant Direct Recalls InterActive Implant Open-Tray Transfers Due to Sizing Error

Implant Direct is recalling 48 units of InterActive Implant Open-Tray Transfers because the wrong size was packaged, which may lead to oversized crown fabrication.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the hazard is a manufacturing/packaging error that may lead to a functional issue (oversized crown) rather than a direct, immediate health injury or death.

Plain-English summary

Implant Direct Sybron Manufacturing, LLC is recalling 48 units of the InterActive Implant Open-Tray Transfer Narrow (Part Number 6534-08N, Lot #71664). The recall was initiated because the incorrect sized product, the InterActive Implant Open-Tray Transfer Wide (6534-08W), was packaged instead of the intended narrow version.

The discrepancy in product size may cause issues with the dental impression, potentially leading to the fabrication of an oversized crown. The affected units were distributed worldwide, including in the United States (OR, NE, VA, FL, MO, WA, TX) and in the countries of CZ, GB, NL, MF, DK, IT, IE, and DE.

Dental professionals and laboratories should stop using the affected units and contact the recalling firm for instructions on how to return or dispose of the product.
