The coloration in the des ired shade group of finished milled or pressed ceramic crowns and

bridges can be ob tained jus t by a surface applicat ion with these stains . Foundation Shade

Stains are designed with lower value compared to Shade Stains. These shades offer unique

possibiliti es for obtaining three-di men sionality with metal- free and metal -bonded porce lain

works, This can be achieved by a d irec t app lication of a thin layer on the Opaque or on

alumina or zirconia frameworks to estab lish the basic shade of the restoration.
