Abstract :

Even though implant is consider as successful and predictable treatment modality to rehabilitate partially and completely edentulous patient, failures do occur with this form of treatment.one of common mechanical failure associated with implant supported prosthesis is fracture of implant abutment screw.fracture fragment remaining inside implant render renders the implant and prostheses useless. This case report describe a procedure of retrieval of fractured implant abutment screw fragment so that same implants can be utilize for further prosthetic rehabilitation
