This comprehensive guide to color science and shade selection in Dentistry presents all the theory and clinical guidance required in order to achieve consistent clinical success. The book opens by reviewing color and its dimensions and discussing color perception, drawing attention to the various phenomena that impact upon it. Shade selection in Operative Dentistry is then explained in detail with the aid of copious illustrations. The coverage encompasses shade selection methods for resin-based composite restorations and for bleaching procedures, with presentation of the latest evidence on their accuracy and reliability. Guidance is then provided on how to achieve predictable color harmony between the natural tooth and the composite restorative material in the context of biomimetic Dentistry, with discussion of special effects, pigments, layering techniques, surface texture, and finishing and polishing. Changes in color over time and responses to such changes are also outlined. The book will be of value for practitioners in Restorative and Esthetic Dentistry as well as for dental students and researchers.

Shade selection and shade matching of a restoration is the critical final step in aesthetic restorative dentistry once morphology and occlusion are addressed. Color is governed by visual and scientific components and in dentistry it is communicated on a regular basis but often misunderstood, since every human eye is not capable of perceiving it in a standardized manner. Achieving a predictable aesthetic restorative outcome not only involves the dentist's mastery of the art of perceiving color and adequately communicating it, but also, a proper interpretation of this information by the laboratory technician to transform the same to a successful fabrication using appropriate materials This book is a complete step by step guide to achieve an accurate shade matching for restorations in the aesthetic zone. This will benefit dentists who want to achieve a perfect restorative outcome.

In dentistry, the process of shade selection is an important procedure to provide an aesthetic restoration that harmoniously blends with patient's natural teeth. Knowledge of the scientific basis of color from understanding light to also interpreting the artistic aspects of shade selection ensures a successful result. The most commonly applied method for shade selection is the visual color assessment, by comparison of the tooth with standard tooth shade color guides, visual color assessments have shown to be subjective and unreliable as people vary in their ability to detect small differences in color between two objects. Developments in optical electronics, computer technology and color instruments as colorimeters and spectrophotometers assist in shade selection and significantly reduce the subjectivity of color selection and greatly enhance shade selection and communication between the dental office and dental laboratory.
