Techniques to remove a failed integrated implant

This literature and clinical review identifies and evaluates the various techniques for removing failed, fractured, or peri-implantitis-affected nonmobile implants. The article also discusses the limitations and complications that may arise with the various techniques during removal procedures. Based on specific clinical factors such as anatomical conditions, implant design, condition of implant connection, bone quality, and remaining amount of bone integrated to the implant body, a decision tree is proposed to help clinicians determine the most appropriate minimally invasive technique.
