With considerable difficulty. Record level errors are records that point
to back versions that don't exist, generally. Index page errors tend to be
pages that should be part of the index and aren't - the infamous error
"wrong page type, expected 7 found 5" is another way those problems
announce themselves. Database page errors can be a lot of things and a
single page can have lots of errors. Check the backup and see what you've
lost.
