How does one “interpret” dogma?

It can be expanded on, like deriving principles from first principles, or its practical implications can be explicated. Vatican II was largely an example of the latter, as far as I know.

From what dogmas did Vatican II derive practical implications? The dogma, that, “Yes, Virginia, there is Salvation Outside the Church”?
