Abstract
As the use of dental implants becomes more prevalent, mechanical complications become more common. When an implant abutment screw fractures, it can be difficult to retrieve the retained fragment. The purpose of this article is to describe a technique to remove the abutment screw fragments without damaging the implant body or its screw threads.
