Abstract
Cold welding is one of the mechanical complications of dental implants. This case report describes how a cold welded gingival former was successfully retrieved without damaging the threads using combination of ultrasonic scaler, surgical screw driver and a gingival retraction cord. This is a simple, cost-effective technique that can be adopted in all dental implant systems.
