In particular, use of the Cercon technique (DeguDent, Hanau/Germany) in combination<br />

with Galvano Solar<strong>is</strong> (DeguDent, Hanau/Germany) enables an accurate,<br />

esthetic procedure with predictable fit and a natural appearance. Zirconium<br />

oxide <strong>is</strong> an excellent material with high esthetic and biological potential, and the<br />

desired perfect seating can be achieved in every restoration with Galvano mesial<br />

constructions.<br />

CASE STUDY<br />

The 57-year-old patient, a computer expert in an executive position, presented<br />

with severe pain. Advanced periodontit<strong>is</strong> in the lower jaw resulted in teeth becoming<br />

loose, serious infections with permanent pain and gum bleeding. The teeth<br />

were evaluated as not worth retaining after clinical and x-ray diagnos<strong>is</strong>.<br />

TREATMENT PLAN AND PROCEDURE<br />

The patient wanted a fixed restoration in the lower jaw. A new bridge construction<br />

was also planned for the upper jaw. The time available for treatment was limited<br />

because of the patient’s professional obligations. The surgery in the lower jaw<br />

with temporary restoration and treatment of the upper jaw was to be completed<br />

in 17 days. The second stage of treatment was six months later and was to be<br />

completed within two weeks.<br />
