We had a torn page detection in one of our restores. It probably was caused due to a bad sector. The table for which this happened is a multi million rows table. Now I thought the dbcc for this table to repair it was a wrong option because it took forever and did not repair it. Even if it would with right options chosen, would not do so without losing data (right?)
Is a new restore from good backup only solution to this?

Please advice.

I would boot all the users, backup the transaction log, then restore from backup and apply all the transaction logs to get it current again. This might fix your torn page. Run the checkdb again and see.
