Indian Dentist Successfully Removes Broken Implant Screw Using Broken Screw Removal Kit

1. Case Overview

A highly experienced dentist from India recently treated a special patient whose dental implant restoration had become loose. Clinical examination and radiographic analysis confirmed that the screw fixing the abutment had fractured deep inside the implant.

The fracture occurred below the implant platform. Due to the short remaining fragment and lack of purchase points, conventional methods were extremely difficult and posed a high risk of damaging the internal threads of the implant, which could result in implant failure.

2. Challenges

• Limited Space: The fracture site is deep within the implant, making visualization difficult.

• High Risk: The broken screw had to be removed without damaging the implant’s internal threads.

• Precision Requirement: Highly precise tools were needed to accurately locate the center of the broken screw.

3. The Solution: Using the Broken Screw Removal Kit

The dentist chose to use our professional Broken Screw Removal Kit, specifically designed for challenging cases like this. The kit’s multi-step precision instruments allow minimally invasive removal of broken screws.

Step 1: Precise Positioning (Internal Guide)
The dentist selected the matching positioning guide based on the implant system (e.g., Noble, ITI, MIS). This ensured that subsequent drilling stayed exactly at the center of the screw, protecting the implant walls.

Step 2: Reverse Drilling (Reverse Drill)
Using the kit’s reverse drills (1.0mm / 1.2mm) at low speed with high torque, the drill was rotated in reverse. As the drill tip engaged the surface of the broken screw, friction and reverse torque often allowed the loosened fragment to rotate out spontaneously.

Step 3: Screw Extraction (Screw Remover)
For screws that were still tightly lodged, the dentist used the dedicated screw remover. The tool engaged the threads of the fragment, allowing the broken screw to be fully extracted smoothly.

4. Clinical Results

Thanks to the precision and versatility of the kit:

• Procedure Time: The entire procedure took only a few minutes.

• Implant Integrity: The implant’s internal threads remained intact; no implant removal was necessary.

• Postoperative Restoration: After cleaning, the dentist immediately replaced the screw and abutment, restoring the patient’s dental function.

• Patient Feedback: The patient avoided a secondary surgical procedure and additional costs, expressing high satisfaction with the treatment outcome.
