demands of the patient, especially re

Introduction
Today, prosthetic and operative treat
ment concepts could be categorized as
sive (partially reversible), and (more) in
various materials. Dentistry, perhaps,
has the unique distinction of using the
widest variety of materials, ranging from
composites and ceramics. Develop
ments, especially in the field of polymers
and ceramics, have largely eliminated
the use of metals in the mouth. In spite of
all the advances, clinicians should real
ize the drawbacks before selecting the
most appropriate material for a particu
lar situation. Concentrating only on the
nicians should be mindful of the best ap
plication method. As the esthetic aspect
of dental care becomes increasingly im
portant to patients, the dental practitioner
should be aware of the applications and
restorative materials or systems and bal
ance these with the ethical aspects of
the invasive applications.
Fortunately, the dental profession has
profited from remarkable technological
advances in the substitution of missing
dental tissues and teeth. However, we
are still faced with the challenge of rep
licating the tooth tissues, mechanically,
physically, biologically, and optically.
With the increased options, the choice of
material is also becoming more difficult.
When a qualified ceramist is engaged,
pressed ceramics provide outstanding
results for a single anterior fixed dental
prosthesis (FDP), more so than almost
all other restorative options, with suitable
marginal fit, minimal abrasion, and con
servative tooth preparation. Yet they are
not as effective as reinforced ceramics
in preventing premature failure. On the
can be achieved using milled aluminous
or zirconia copings. However, the pres
ence of the relatively opaque internal
ceramic core may provide an impedi
ment to matching some tooth colors.
Although minimally invasive applica
tions are possible using direct compos
the drawbacks of composites involve the
loss of surface lustre. This may require
repolishing, refinishing, or relayering.
This is commonly found to be the case
after several years of clinical function,
and therefore the maintenance of the
surface characteristics of composites,
even after finishing and polishing, is an
ongoing issue.
Minimally invasive applications are
also possible using ceramic veneers.
According to the majority of studies, it
is clear that from the mechanical point
of view, retention of laminates is not
seen to be problematic.4 Clinical stud
ies rarely report debonding, indicating
that the adhesion of the luting cement,
not only to dental tissues but also to the
ic, is very reliable. Therefore the choice

one restoration type over another, or the
most suitable restorative materials for
the patient.
The situation becomes even more
complex when the patient has a history
of several treatment concepts that have
failed. This case presentation could be
considered an example of the most mini

debris and biofilm on the inner surface
of the abutment were indicators of the
presence of an insufficient connection.
The high rotational forces of the can
tilever pontic are another unfavorable
factor in such a material combination.
Changing the implant geometry by
grinding must be considered a major
complication since, in the case of a re
pair, the new restoration would require
a direct impression followed by manu
facturing and inserting an individually
cast abutment. In the described case,

as possible, in order to avoid any expo

between crown and abutment would be
visible.
Accomplishing a perfect harmony
from an esthetic standpoint is more diffi
cult when fewer teeth are subject to treat

Discussion
Unfortunately, there is rarely a single so
lution for all problems in dentistry and
dental technology. In most cases, den
tists find solutions for individual situa
tions and individual complications. The
presented case involved several such
challenges and indicates that esthetics
in reconstructive dentistry is an extremely
demanding discipline requiring experi
ence and knowledge, and the poten
tial to apply both. The esthetic aspect
of treatment always adds an additional
requirement to the medical basics, and
sometimes competes with them, mak
ing the whole treatment more difficult.
Good esthetics do not happen neces
sarily as a consequence of correct den
tal and medical treatment. Often there
is a need to do more. Furthermore, the
individual patient’s wishes need to be
taken into consideration. Patients with
high esthetic demands require good
management, which can create chal
lenging situations.
The present case illustrates, from dif
ferent angles, the demanding daily task
of the practicing dentist to apply modern
and advanced methods and at the same
time assess their benefits and risks. With
the increasing complexity of cases, the
responsibility of the clinician is increas
ing. The solutions demonstrated should
not be considered the most correct
thought process during the planning of
such complex cases. Whilst almost two

Conclusions
Missing teeth can be restored both func

implants and zirconia suprastructures.
The durability of such restorations can
be achieved through adhesive cementa

derived from both clinical and laboratory
studies. This clinical example illustrates
the particular challenge for any clini

situations, where former experience or

is important to learn from previous unfa

assessments or decisions affecting the
individual and to keep an open mind re
