Abstract:
This study investigated the predictability of color (Hue, Value, and Chroma) on three illustrated surfaces of ceramic veneers and the extent to which laminates may be shade-adapted by use of tints and opaquers on the fitting surface. Significant discrepancies were found in the final color match. The dentist should opt for a lighter, more translucent shade, which can be modified before final cementation.
