| esthet x shade guide: Color and Appearance in Dentistry Alvaro Della Bona, 2020-04-03 This book presents the state of the art in color science and explains its application to dental structures and materials, using high-quality illustrations to ensure ease of learning. Most people seek a bright smile with a natural appearance. This goal often poses a great clinical challenge for the dentist, and its achievement is dependent on a good knowledge of color science and optical properties relevant to dentistry. Further, if a smile is to be esthetically improved to the patient’s satisfaction, the dentist must be able to extract the best from dental materials and techniques, must understand all aspects of facial harmony, and must communicate effectively with both the patient and lab technicians. All of these aspects are thoroughly explored in the book, with detailed coverage of such topics as visual and instrumental shade matching, color management, and avoidance of complications and pitfalls. Color and Appearance in Dentistry will be of high value to all who are engaged in the daily practice of esthetic dentistry. |

| esthet x shade guide: Dental Composite Materials for Direct Restorations Vesna Miletic, 2017-11-25 This book covers both basic scientific and clinically relevant aspects of dental composite materials with a view to meeting the needs of researchers and practitioners. Following an introduction on their development, the composition of contemporary composites is analyzed. A chapter on polymerization explains the setting reactions and light sources available for light-cured composites. The quality of monomer-to-polymer conversion is a key factor for material properties. Polymerization shrinkage along with the associated stress remains among the most challenging issues regarding composite restorations. A new classification of dental composites is proposed to offer more clinically relevant ways of differentiating between commercially available materials. A review of specific types of composites provides an insight into their key issues. The potential biological issues of dental composites are reviewed in chapters on elution of leachable substances and cariogenicity of resin monomers. Clinical sections focus on material placement, finishing procedures, and the esthetics and clinical longevity of composite restorations. Bonding to tooth tissues is addressed in a separate chapter, as is the efficiency of various composite repair methods. The final chapter discusses future perspectives on dental composite materials. |

| esthet x shade guide: Coal-burning Type of Endemic Fluorosis Zhi-Zhong Guan, 2021-11-18 Endemic fluorosis is caused by excessive intake of fluorine in drinking water, air, food, tea and other media in a specific natural environment for a long time, which involves at least 25 countries, such as China, India, Vietnam, Iran, Egypt, Mexico, Argentina and influences more than 200 million of population. China and India are the countries with the most extensive endemic fluorosis and the most serious damages. There are three main intake sources of endemic fluorosis, e.g., drinking water, coal-burning pollution and drinking tea. Coal-burning type of endemic fluorosis was established in Guizhou Province of China in 1970’s. The residents in the areas used indoor stoves with no flue to burn coals with high content of fluoride to bake grains in the autumn and heat in the winter. This results in excessive intake of fluorine and then leads chronic poisoning. It has been confirmed that 13 provinces of China with 34.3 million of population are influenced by this type of fluorosis with severe injuries to most organs of human body. The content of this book covers the epidemiology, pathological changes, molecular pathogenesis and clinical treatments of the disease. This book is a suitable reference for the researchers and graduate students in this field, which is helpful to improve the understanding of this disease and to take preventive measures. |

| esthet x shade guide: Color in Dentistry Stephen J. Chu, Rade D. Paravina, Irena Sailer, Adam J. Mieleszko, 2017 Predictable shade matching in dentistry remains a significant challenge for clinicians in daily practice. Color is an important aspect in the esthetics of teeth and dental restoration fabrication, and color discrepancy can mar restorative results, even when other aspects (marginal fit, occlusion, and morphology) are adequate. This book provides step-by-step protocols to help dental professionals accurately match, communicate, and reproduce the color of teeth and gingiva. These authors demonstrate how to implement color science in simple problem-solving instructions for predictable esthetics in both clinical protocols and laboratory techniques. An extensive presentation of clinical cases is included to illustrate the use of recommended protocols in general practice. An outstanding contribution to the practice and theory of color management in contemporary dentistry. (EDITOR). |

| esthet x shade guide: Layers Jordi Manauta, Anna Salat, 2012 Despite the many advances of contemporary dental research in biomaterials and tissue regeneration, no dental material can perfectly correspond to natural tooth. The authors of this dynamic atlas posit that it is the mastery of layering technique and not the material itself that is most important in recreating natural- looking restorations. This reference book uses over a thousand images to explore the stratification of natural tooth and demonstrate solutions for how to arrange layers of composite resin to recreate the color, opacity, shape, and surface abnormalities of natural tooth. The authors provide step-by-step instruction in basic layering techniques as well as in advanced applications of dental characteristics, which are possible with a wide range of esthetic dental materials. In addition, each chapter is prefaced with insights from luminaries in esthetic dentistry, including Luiz Narciso Baratieri, Galip G rel, Pascal Magne, Francesco Mangani, Ricardo Mitrani, and Angelo Putignano, among others. Optimal stratification techniques not only create natural-looking beauty in restorations but also imitate the innate bioarchitecture of teeth, which is the foundation of functional and esthetic results. |

| esthet x shade guide: Color for Science, Art and Technology Kurt Nassau, 1997-12-18 The aim of this book is to assemble a series of chapters, written by experts in their fields, covering the basics of color - and then some more. In this way, readers are supplied with almost anything they want to know about color outside their own area of expertise. Thus, the color measurement expert, as well as the general reader, can find here information on the perception, causes, and uses of color. For the artist there are details on the causes, measurement, perception, and reproduction of color. Within each chapter, authors were requested to indicate directions of future efforts, where applicable. One might reasonably expect that all would have been learned about color in the more than three hundred years since Newton established the fundamentals of color science. This is not true because:• the measurement of color still has unresolved complexities (Chapter 2)• many of the fine details of color vision remain unknown (Chapter 3)• every few decades a new movement in art discovers original ways to use new pigments, and dyes continue to be discovered (Chapter 5)• the philosophical approach to color has not yet crystallized (Chapter 7)• new pigments and dyes continue to be discovered (Chapters 10 and 11)• the study of the biological and therapeutic effects of color is still in its infancy (Chapter 2).Color continues to develop towards maturity and the editor believes that there is much common ground between the sciences and the arts and that color is a major connecting bridge. |
| esthet x shade guide: Systematische Erforschung der Farbentstehung an menschlichen Zähnen André Hoffmann, 2004-03-23 Der Autor dieses Werks hat die Entstehung der Zahnfarbe systematisch erforscht. Dieses Buch zeugt von dieser systematischen Erforschung an menschlichen Zähnen und dentalen Farbringen mit Hochpräzisionsmeßsystemen. Im Zuge dieser wissenschaftlichen Grundlagenforschung dürften die wesentlichen Einflußfaktoren isoliert und eindeutig quantifiziert worden sein. Dazu gehören beispielsweise das Licht bzw. Meßlicht und die Lichtarten verschiedener Farbtemperaturen, die Strahlengänge des Lichtes bzw. die Meßgeometrien (Orte von Lichtquellen und Sensoren in Relation zur Meßprobe), der Beobachtungswinkel (2°, 10°), die Größe der Meßfläche und Meßöffnung, die Glanzwirkung, der Flüssigkeitsgehalt (mit wissenschaftlichem Beweis des Zusammenhanges zwischen Flüssigkeitsgehalt und Zahnfarbe), Wirkung von Trocknung und Flüssigkeitswiederaufnahme, der Anteil des Flüssigkeitsgehaltes an der Glanzwirkung, die Subjektivität von visueller Bestimmung, Kronenkrümmung, Systemart (Spektralphotometer, Dreibereichsfarbmeßgerät), Meßmodus (Kontakt oder Non-kontakt-Modus), Meßsystem-Objekt-Relation, Positionierung, Wiederholbarkeit bzw. Reproduzierbarkeit. Zudem wurden subjektiv-visuelle Bestimmungen und objektivierte Messungen in Subjektiv-objektiv-Vergleichen über Wertevergleiche nachgegangen. Alle diese Einflußfaktoren sind nicht nur an nassen, sondern auch an trockeneren (verschiedene bestimmte Trocknungs- bzw. Rehydrierungszustände) und trockenen Zähnen anhand u. a. der Helligkeit (L*), von Farbmesswerten, wie beispielsweise a*, b*, C*, h, ΔE, des Metamerieindex, von Spektralwerten, von Zahnfarbproben und von Zahnfarbräumen analysiert. Im Rahmen dieser Erkundung konnten Phänomene (beispielsweise Änderungen und Brüche im Verhalten sowie hochindividuelle Entwicklungen der Farbwerte, Paradoxes zwischen den Werten subjektiver Bestimmung mittels Zahnfarbproben und den Werten objektivierender Messungen) aufgedeckt und Einblick in die Farbdynamik durch De- und Rehydrierung gewährt werden. Die Entwicklung der einzelnen Farbmeßwerte ließ beispielsweise Rückschlüsse über den Flüssigkeitsfluß durch den Zahn und seine Gewebe insbesondere bei Trocknung und Flüssigkeitswiederaufnahme zu und gab Auskunft über das zeitliche Ausmaß dieser Prozesse. Auf Basis dieser Datenlage hatte Hoffmann mehrere Verfahren für die Forschung und Anwendung in der Praxis entwickelt, Innovationen vorgeschlagen und für machbar eingestuft, wie beispielsweise das trocknungsprotektive Monitoring zur Vermeidung von Devitalisierung bei zahnmedizinischer Behandlung, eine Rekonstruktion der Farbe von natürlich feuchten Zähnen an bereits angetrockneten, die Identifizierung von Lebenden und Toten über den dentalen Fingerabdruck und für die Rechtsmedizin eine neue Methode zur Todeszeitbestimmung. Zudem beschrieb er eine zeitliche Trocknungsgrenze, bis zu der noch relativ natürliche, passende Farbwerte zu erhalten sind und nach der keine Farbbestimmung mehr erfolgen sollte, und er legte die Rehydrierungszeit nach Ende der Trocknung fest, die gewartet werden muß, um wieder eine natürliche Zahnfarbe zu erhalten. Seine Erkenntnisse sind u. a. auch, daß Zähne in der Lage sind, Informationen beispielsweise zum Zustand (Flüssigkeitsgehalt, Farbwerte) und zur Zeit innerhalb der Trocknungs- und Flüssigkeitswiederaufnahmechronologie zu speichern. Der Autor artikuliert einen dentalen Datenspeicher und ein dentales Gedächtnis und ist der Meinung, daß wesentlicher Fortschritt auf diesem Gebiet u. a. über ein neuronales Netz für Farbmeßapparaturen erzielt werden könnte. |
