New and innovative packaging for Tapered Screw-Vent®, Screw-Vent®, Tapered SwissPlus®, SwissPlus® and AdVent® implants.

All product modifications over the past few years have been based on customer input to make our implant systems more efficient and easier to use. The new packaging has been designed to make the retrieval, delivery and storage of our implants much easier for the customers.


New Packaging Details

Our new implant packaging consists of the following components:

Outer Box Outer Vial Inner Vial
It contains IFU & 3 patient chart labels
Dimensions: 1 ¼” L x 1 ¼” W x 2 ¼” H.
(Sterile barrier) It contains implant, Fixture Mount
Transfer & cover screw.

 

Key Benefits of the New Packaging
  • Simplified retrieval:
    • The new packaging provides an easy access to the implant and cover screw.
    • Implant can be easily lifted once the Fixture Mount Transfer has been engaged by the implant driver. Cover screw is located in the upper portion of the Inner Vial with the access hole for the hex tool.
  • Simplified delivery:
    • Touchless delivery system allows the implant, upon retrieval, to be carried directly to patient’s mouth without any intermediate steps.
  • Simplified storage:
    • More compact, robust design allows for easier storage. In addition, clear labeling and color-coding of Outer Vial caps allow for easy viewing of implant selection. Each cap label shows implant diameter and length.
Frequently Asked Questions

Will the new packaging incorporate all implant lines?
This release will incorporate all implant lines, except Spline ®implants, which will remain in the cardboard box packaging and will be released in the new packaging at a later date.

When will I see the new packaging?
The new packaging will be introduced gradually, in the following order: Tapered Screw-Vent, Tapered SwissPlus, SwissPlus, Screw-Vent and AdVent implants. For several months following the release, you may be receiving implants in both the existing and the new packaging.

How are the Outer Vial caps color-coded?

  • Tapered Screw-Vent implants: 3.7mmD = Green, 4.7mmD = Purple, 6.0mmD = Yellow;
  • Screw-Vent implants: 3.3mmD & 3.7mmD = Green, 4.7mmD = Purple;
  • AdVent implants: 5.7mmD Platform = Yellow, other AdVent implants = Gray;
  • All SwissPlus and Tapered SwissPlus implants = Gray.

What are the handling instructions for the new packaging?
Please refer to the enclosed graphic Instructions for Use to review details on opening the new implant packaging. Note: Steps 4 to 10 are completed in a sterile environment. Use the tapered hex tool with the thumb wheel (parts THX1.25 /THXL1.25) to engage the cover screw located in the upper portion of the Inner Vial.

What is the return policy?
Customers may only return undamaged product in its original package (including the Outer Box). Since the seal of the Outer Vial creates a sterile barrier, product cannot be returned once the Outer Vial has been opened. Returns of the old packaging for the new packaging and for product upgrades will not be accepted.
