At the conclusion of this program, participants should be able to:
• Define situations where salvage of an ailing implant should be undertaken.
• Select cases that have the best potential for salvage and employ the best technique to achieve these results.
• Recognize the limitations of each technique.
• Offer patients options for their proposed treatment.
