The revision of the MDD was triggered by a medical device scandal that made headlines worldwide: a manufacturer had used materials for breast implants that were not approved for use in medical devices, contrary to all legal requirements. As a result, numerous patients had health problems. The aim of the new legislation \u2013 the Medical Device Regulation \u2013 is to achieve greater patient safety. It should not be transposed into national law as a directive in each country, but should be directly valid for each country as a regulation.<\/p>\n<p>Since the implementation is very extensive, there is a transitional period until 26 May 2024, during which time medical devices with MDD certification can continue to be marketed and sold.<\/p>\n<h4 data-fontsize=\"18\" data-lineheight=\"24.3px\" class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"--fontSize:18; line-height: 1.35; --minFontSize:18;\"><\/h4>\n<h3 data-fontsize=\"25\" data-lineheight=\"33.75px\" class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"--fontSize:25; line-height: 1.35;\">\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><span style=\"color: var(--awb-color4);\">The aim of this customer information<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/h3>\n<p>The aim of this customer information is to clarify the impact of the new Regulation (EU) 2017\/745 (hereinafter referred to as MDR) on the repair business for dental rotary instruments.<\/p>\n<h3 data-fontsize=\"25\" data-lineheight=\"33.75px\" class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"--fontSize:25; line-height: 1.35;\">\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><span style=\"color: var(--awb-color4);\">A description of Desos GmbH\u2019s business activities<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/h3>\n<p>Desos GmbH operates a repair service within Europe for the repair of dental rotary instruments, also called straight and contra-angle handpieces, using original and non-original spare parts or standard spare parts from other manufacturers.

Only when a significant change occurs is the spare part to be considered a medical device.<\/p>\n<p>This also explicitly applies to the replacement of parts of a medical device with a similar spare part, i.e. any repairs that are performed using after-market, non-original parts.

Spare parts are not regarded as medical devices and, if it can be shown that a repair does not affect the performance of the final product, there is no impact on the legal conformity of the product. For Desos GmbH, this means that, after maintenance\/reconditioning, servicing and repair, the functional features that are essential for the safety of the medical device must be tested and documented.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Desos GmbH only uses spare parts from manufacturers who follow all the principles of the MDR, i.e. have implemented ISO 13485 standards to ensure full production traceability.<\/p>\n<p>In summary, we can confirm that you can work with Desos GmbH with the confidence that you are fully complying with the MDR.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions or comments on this complex topic, please feel free to contact us directly.<\/p>\n<p>With best regards,<br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: var(--awb-color1); color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);\"><br \/>\nYour Desos.eu Team<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"background-color: var(--awb-color1); color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);\">Email: service@desos.eu<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-3{width:100% !important;margin-top : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;}.fusion-builder-column-3 > .fusion-column-wrapper {padding-top : 0px !important;padding-right : 0px !important;margin-right : 1.92%;padding-bottom : 0px !important;padding-left : 0px !important;margin-left : 1.92%;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-3{width:100% !important;}.fusion-builder-column-3 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}@media only screen and (max-width:640px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-3{width:100% !important;}.fusion-builder-column-3 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}<\/style><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-flex-container.fusion-builder-row-1-1{ padding-top : 0px;margin-top : 0px;padding-right : 0px;padding-bottom : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;padding-left : 0px;}<\/style><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel fusion-toggle-no-divider fusion-toggle-boxed-mode panel-default fusion-faq-post fusion-faq-post-1767 pricing \"><span class=\"entry-title rich-snippet-hidden\">Do I have to pay for shipping?<\/span><span class=\"vcard rich-snippet-hidden\"><span class=\"fn\"><a href=\"https:\/\/desos.eu\/en\/author\/firat\/\" title=\"Posts by Firat \u00d6zcan\" rel=\"author\">Firat \u00d6zcan<\/a><\/span><\/span><span class=\"updated rich-snippet-hidden\">2022-07-14T19:38:16+02:00<\/span><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\"><a data-toggle=\"collapse\" class=\"collapsed\" data-parent=\"#accordian-1\" data-target=\"#collapse-1-1767\" href=\"#collapse-1-1767\"><div class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\"><div class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper-main\"><div class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper-sub\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">Do I have to pay for shipping?<\/div><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"collapse-1-1767\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content post-content\"><p>If you decide to accept the cost estimation at least for one instrument, we will charge you a small fee for packaging and freight.
