RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate color, lightness, chroma, hue, and translucency adjustment potential of resin composites using CIEDE2000 color difference formula. METHODS: Three resin composites (Filtek Universal, Harmonize, and Omnichroma) were tested. Two types of specimens were prepared: an outer base shade with an inner hole filled with test shades and single-composite specimens of all shades. Spectrorradiometric reflectances measurements and subsequent CIELAB color coordinates and translucency parameter (TP) were performed. Color (CAP00 ), lightness, chroma, hue, and translucency (TAP00 ) adjustment potential using CIEDE2000 color difference were computed. Color and transparency differences among composite materials and shades were statistically tested (P < 0.05). RESULTS: Positive CAP00 and TAP00 values were found for majority of tested materials. CAP00 values ranged from -0.14 to 0.89, with the highest values found for Omnichroma (>0.75 in all cases). TAP00 values ranged from -0.06 to 0.86 with significant translucency differences among dual and single specimens. Omnichroma exhibited the highest adjustment potential for all color dimensions studied. CONCLUSIONS: Lightness, hue, chroma, and translucency adjustment potential have been introduced using CIEDE2000 color difference formula, and have shown their usefulness to evaluate blending effect in dentistry. Color coordinates and translucency adjustment potential were dependent on dental material. Omnichroma exhibited the most pronounced blending effect. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Resin composites with increased color and translucency adjustment may simplify shade selection, making this process easier and less time consuming. Furthermore, these materials might facilitate challenging and complex color matching situations.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the masking ability of different indirect restorative systems (IRS) on tooth-colored resin substrates. METHODS: A1-shaded specimens from 5 IRS (LDC-IPS e.max® CAD; YZW-Zenostar Zr Translucent; PICN-Enamic; YLD-T-IPS e.max® ZirCAD + IPS e.max Ceram; CAD-on-Zenostar Zr Translucent + Crystall./Connect + IPS e.max® CAD) were fabricated. Specimens (n = 5) were cemented with a resin luting agent (Variolink® N; shade White) on three different shades (ND3, ND8 and ND9) of a tooth-colored resin substrate (IPS Natural Die Material). Spectral reflectance and color coordinates were measured using a spectroradiometer under standardized lighting conditions (CIE D65 illumination) and optical geometry 0/45°. Color differences (ΔEab* and ΔE00) from cemented specimens and CIELAB- and CIEDE2000-based translucency parameter (TP and TP00) from non-cemented specimens were calculated. Data was statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's tests (α = 0.05). ΔE values were also analyzed using perceptibility (PT = 1.22 ΔEab* units; 0.81 ΔE00 units) and acceptability (AT = 2.66 ΔEab* units; 1.77 ΔE00 units) thresholds. RESULTS: The cemented specimens of CAD-on, LDC, YZW and PICN on different substrates (ND3-ND8, ND3-ND9 and ND8-ND9) showed different ΔEab* and ΔE00 values (p ≤ 0.05), which were above AT. YLD-T showed ΔEab* and ΔE00 values below AT for all comparisons. Lowest and highest TP and TP00 values were obtained for YLD-T and PICN, respectively (p ≤ 0.05). SIGNIFICANCE: Resin-cemented YLD-T on different tooth-colored substrates showed less translucency as well as smaller color differences (below acceptability threshold), indicating the best masking ability among evaluated systems.

OBJECTIVE: Accuracy on visual shade matching (VSM) is one of the most difficult procedures in esthetic dentistry. Some variables can influence on this process and gender is one of the most controversial. This observational study evaluated the influence of gender on accuracy of VSM. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One-hundred observers (65 females and 35 males) shade matched four human upper central incisors (UCI) to shade tabs from Vita Classical (VC) shade guide. In addition, the spectral reflectance values from the four UCI and from the 16 VC shade tabs were measured using a spectroradiometer (SP). Measurements were performed over a gray background, inside a viewing booth and under D65 illuminant (diffuse/0º geometry). CIELAB coordinates (L*, a*, and b*) were calculated according to CIE D65 illuminant and CIE 2º Standard Observer. Instrumental shade matching for each UCI, based on minimum color difference, was performed using two color difference metrics (CIELAB and CIEDE2000(2:1:1)). Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and McNemar test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Irrespective of the color difference metric, the most prevalent shade performed by females showed greater success (50% for CIELAB and 100% for CIEDE2000(2:1:1)) than males (25% for CIELAB and 50% for CIEDE2000(2:1:1)). However, such difference on gender was statistically significant only when using CIEDE2000(2:1:1) color difference metric (p ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The most prevalent shade option resultant from VSM performed by females using VC shade guide perfectly agreed (100% success rate) with measurements from SP and CIEDE2000(2:1:1) color difference metric. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The ability to understand and distinguish color differences in VSM is critical in clinical dentistry. Variation in shade perception due to observer gender can be minimized using additional observers and/or improving shade matching ability. (J Esthet Restor Dent 29:E15-E23, 2017).

OBJECTIVES: To analyze the influence of lightness, chroma and hue differences on visual shade matching performed by dental students. METHODS: 100 dental students (DS) volunteers with normal vision participated in the study. A spectroradiometer (SP) was used to measure the spectral reflectance of 4 extracted human upper central incisors (UCI 1-4) and shade tabs from Vita Classical (VC) and Vita Toothguide 3D-Master (3D) shade guides. Measurements were performed over a gray background, inside a viewing booth and under D65 illuminant (diffuse/0° geometry). Color parameters (L*, a*, b*, C* and h°) were calculated. DS used VC and 3D to visually select the best shade match for each UCI. CIE metric differences (Δa*,Δb*,ΔL', ΔC' and ΔH') and CIEDE2000(2:1:1) lightness (ΔEL), chroma (ΔEC) and hue (ΔEH) differences were obtained from each UCI and the first three shades selected by DS and the first option using CIELAB, CIEDE2000(1:1:1) and CIEDE2000(2:1:1) color difference metrics. The closest CIELAB color-discrimination ellipsoid (from RIT-DuPont visual color-difference data) to each UCI was selected for the analysis of visual shade matching. RESULTS: DS showed a preference for shades with lower chroma (ΔC' and ΔEC) and/or hue (ΔH' and ΔEH) values instead of shades with lower lightness values (ΔL' and ΔEL). Most best visual matches were near the tolerance ellipsoid centered on tooth shade. SIGNIFICANCE: This study is an attempt to partially explain the inconsistencies between visual and instrumental shade matching and the limitations of shade guides. Visual shade matching was driven by color differences with lower chroma and hue values.

OBJECTIVES: To use the Kubelka-Munk theory to evaluate the scattering (S), absorption (K) and transmittance (T) of non-colored and colored dental zirconia systems and human (HD) and bovine (BD) dentins. METHODS: Two zirconia systems were used: ZC- ZirCAD (Ivoclar Vivadent) and LV-LAVA (3M ESPE). Specimens from each ceramic system were divided into 3 groups (n=5): ZC1 and LV1 (non-colored); ZC2 and LV2 colored to shade A1, and ZC3 and LV3 colored to shade A3. Five human and bovine anterior teeth were flattened and polished through 1200 grit SiC paper to expose the superficial buccal dentin. All samples were prepared to a final thickness of 0.5 mm. Diffuse reflectance was measured against white and black backgrounds, using a spectroradiometer in a viewing booth with D65 illuminant and d/0° geometry. S and K coefficients and T were calculated using Kubelka-Munk's equations. Data was statistically analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney tests, and VAF coefficient. RESULTS: Spectral distributions of S, K and T were wavelength dependent. The spectral behavior of S and T was similar to HD (VAF≥96.80), even though they were statistically different (p≤0.05). The spectral behavior of K was also similar to HD, except for LV1 (VAF=38.62), yet all ceramics were statistically different from HD (p≤0.05). HD and BD showed similar values of S and T (p>0.05). SIGNIFICANCE: The dental professional should consider the optical behavior differences between the zirconia systems evaluated and the human dentin to achieve optimal esthetics in restorative dentistry.
