Abstract
Implant abutment fractures are an uncommon mechanical complication, and the removal of the abutment fragment and replacement with a new prosthesis is the best solution. However, successful retrieval of the fractured abutment fragment from the implant is challenging, and effective rescue kits are lacking. This clinical report describes the retrieval of a fractured implant abutment in a conical connection implant using a modified manufacturer-specific instrument.
