  • Title: [The choice of color in fixed prosthetics: what steps should be followed for a reliable outcome?].
    Author: Vanheusden A, Mainjot A.
    Journal: Rev Belge Med Dent (1984); 2004; 59(1):43-56. PubMed ID: 15295939.
    Abstract:
    The creation of a perfectly-matched esthetic fixed restoration is undeniably one of the most difficult challenges in modern dentistry. The final outcome depends on several essential steps: the use of an appropriate light source, the accurate analysis and correct evaluation of patient's teeth parameters (morphology, colour, surface texture,...), the clear and precise transmission of this data to the laboratory and the sound interpretation of it by a dental technician who masters esthetic prosthetic techniques perfectly. The purpose of this paper was to give a reproducible clinical method to the practitioner in order to achieve a reliable dental colorimetric analysis.
