Although the predictability and long-term success rate of dental implants is well documented in the literature, complications and failures do occur. Failing implants and the consequences of implant removal usually results in significant loss of hard and soft tissues and jeopardize efforts to achieve satisfactory function and esthetics. This lecture will discuss risk factors for treatment failures and treatment modalities to deal with dental implant failure, especially in the esthetic zone. When an implant fails, a customized treatment plan should be provided for each patient depending on the relevant needs. Patients should be informed regarding all possible treatment options and that achieving an ideal esthetic result in the compromised site is often elusive and, in many cases, impossible.
