Abstract
Despite the high success rates and stability of dental implants, failures do occur. While surgical trauma together with bone volume and quality are generally believed to be the most important etiological factors for early implant failures, the etio logy of late failures is more controversial. Early detection and treatment of early progressive bone loss around dental implants by mechanical debridement, antimicrobial therapy, and regenerative therapy are the keys for saving early failing implants. The decision-making tree should be aimed at assisting and simplifying the process of selecting the appropriate alternative once a failure has occurred.
