Database corruption

Help! We had a disk controller problem over the weekend and the MySQL database was corrupted. The only way that things will start up is if I set INNODB_FORCE_RECOVERY to 6. I was able to remove 2 tables that I think were corrupted, but when I try and restore them using MySQL Workbench Import, I get an error stating that the tables can't be created (errno 121) or (errno -1).

I do have a good backup that I can restore from, at the table level (i.e. I can restore everything or selected tables).

Questions: 1) how do I know which tables are corrupted? These are all INNODB tables. I don't see an error log that indicates this 2) How do I restore individual tables with this error? Do I need to go down to a lower FORCE_RECOVERY level? 3) if I was to just restore everything, what do I need to do to get the INNODB_FORCE_RECOVERY to work at 0 level?

This is a production db so as usual I'm under the gun to fix this ASAP.
