The Physics of Light

•Emission - The source of light. Produced by physical or chemical processes.

The Physics of Light

•Transmission - Process by which light passes through a translucent or transparent object.

The Physics of Light

•Reflection - occurs when light strikes a solid object and bounces off of it.

The Physics of Light

Absorption - Process by which light is absorbed by the object.

The Physics of Light

Perception - Occurs in the brain. Rods perceive brightness and and cones perceive the hue

(color).

The Physics of Light

The Physics of Light

The perceived color of an object is the determined by the molecular density and

makeup of that object

Prof. Albert D. Munsell

Munsell’s Color Chart

Hue - Color tone, the actual color

Chroma - Saturation, purity of color

Value - Relative lightness/darkness of the color

Translucency - The degree to which light is transmitted rather than absorbed or reflected in a given restoration

FACTORS AFFECTING ILLUMINATION

•Metamerism

•Lighting

Conflicts

Metamerism- Phenomenon in which the

same object will look differently under different

lighting conditions.

Lighting Conflicts

- mixing of light sources

7-Step Shade Matching Procedure

7-Step Shade Matching Procedure

1. Patient Evaluation

1. Patient Evaluation

- Are there any contrast effects present?

- How will shade selection of one

restoration affect overall smile?

- How will adjacent and opposing dentition

affect shade matching?

- Polycromatism/High translucency/high

opacity?

3. Communication

3. Communication

• Reference photographs of shade system suggested shades including full smile photos and photos of surrounding dentition

• Shots from different angles and lighting conditions

• Use of 18% gray card to eliminate color distractions

• Electronic transfer of tech-based shade systems and photos

Reference Shots

4. Interpretation

4. Interpretation

• Shade tab information is interpreted and converted into the nomenclature of the ceramic system used

•A shade map is created using the ceramic system

language

4. Interpretation

5. Fabrication

5. Fabrication

• Restoration is fabricated using the materials that would best match the surrounding dentition

6. Verification

6. Verification

• Restoration is checked for accuracy with Easy-Shade System AND with conventional shade tabs.

7. Insertion/Placement

•The final test for a color

match.
