Selecting a shade, particularly for composite resin or some type of ceramic restoration, is often the most difficult part of the whole procedure. Understanding colour is difficult enough, but then one needs to try and factor in the shade guide, the ambient light, your ability to perceive colour, the restorative material, the underlying tooth, the surrounding teeth, the technician and the patient. In this excellent presentation A/Prof Roessler will help simplify shade taking and emphasise the factors that are important in achieving aesthetic restorations.
