Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

Miscalibration of the Energy Source monitoring function, which may incorrectly sense the handpiece temperature as higher than the actual handpiece's temperature. This causes some devices to generate a "Check Seal" message with an audible alarm and to stop the heating cycle.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
