Colour/Shade Matching

 

Contrary to popular belief, natural teeth aren’t stark white in colour. We can determine the accurate shade of each patient’s teeth to ensure their dental restorations match their existing teeth to a tee. Our special shade room consists of colour corrected lights and appropriate wall colours so we have no doubt about the shade of their teeth.

A technician will use a series of shade guides which allow us to determine hue, value and chroma, three criteria that help us create crowns that are shaded to perfection. The non-invasive procedure is 100% pain-free so your patients will not experience any discomfort.

Once the crown is ready, we double check the shade and add special touches if necessary. While no one can beat Mother Nature, we can come pretty close to the shade your patients have.
