Abstract
Traditionally, dental-shade-guide standards are designated in terms of Munsell hue (H), value (V), and chroma (C). However, ΔE color differences proposed as ADA tolerances for shade guides are in the CIE L*a*b* system. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new color-difference equation, for estimation of small color differences by Munsell parameters. The published values of the Bioform shade-guide tooth colors determined with a Beckman spectrophotometer were used. Color differences among 276 combinations of the 24 Bioform shade-guide colors were calculated with Eq. 1, with use of the Munsell notation, and also with the CIE L*a*b* equation for ΔE. An estimate of the accuracy of Eq. 1 was 0.41 ΔE units when ΔE CIE was below 4.0. The Vita shade-guide colors were determined with a Beckman spectrophotometer. This data set contained 16 samples, and 120 combinations were used for calculation of color difference. An estimate of the accuracy for this set of data was 0.35 ΔE units when ΔE CIE was less than 4.0. The new color-difference equation provides a means for estimation of AE CIE L*a*b* color difference between dental shades with Munsell notation. This equation will be useful for estimation of small AE CIE L*a*b* values for shade-guide teeth that are designated in terms of Munsell notation.
