How does the self-adjusting mechanism within Passivity Plus™ work?
Each Passivity Plus™ has a pivotable self-adjusting cap that allows micro-adjustment during screw tightening. The adjustment range is less than 2 degrees per base, operating at the micron scale — far less than depicted in educational animations.
When screws are partially engaged (not fully torqued), the caps can pivot freely to compensate for minor misfits between the prosthesis and implant positions. Once seated correctly, final torque locks the adjusted position.
