Tooth Color Guide Set 16 guides, 29 colors A practical shadematching tool designed for faster, more reliable tooth color assessment. Use a simple threestep method to determine brightness, chroma, and hue differences between a natural tooth and the guide. Laser engraved numbering makes identification easy and durable for frequent professional use. Key benefits Accurate shade selection: 29 color options across 16 guide plates allow precision when matching natural teeth. Quick and consistent workflow: a clear threestep procedure reduces guesswork and speeds up colorimetric assessment. Trackable results: compare tooth shade before and after bleaching to document changes during whitening procedures. Durable and easy to read: laser engraved numbers ensure longlasting, legible identification. How it works 1. Brightness match: align the upper guide teeth (examples 1M1, 2M1, 3M1, 4M1, 5M1) with the natural tooth to determine lightness and record a simple yes or no for a match. 2. Chroma check: fan out the guide samples to compare color saturation and select the closest chroma level. 3. Hue adjustment: assess whether the natural tooth appears more yellow L or more red R than the selected guide sample and refine the final shade. Features and specifications Set composition: 16 tooth color guides presenting a total of 29 colors. Identification: laser engraved numbers for clear, durable labeling. Precision: designed for consistent shade selection in clinical and laboratory settings. Compatibility: suitable for use in professional teeth whitening, cleaning, and restoration workflows. Handling: compact and easy to position during chairside or lab procedures. Typical use scenarios Dental clinic shade matching: select the correct shade for restorations, crowns, or veneers prior to fabrication. Whitening documentation: record initial shade and compare with postbleaching results to monitor change. Dental laboratory workflow: provide technicians with precise shade references when matching prosthetics or composites. This guide is an essential accessory for dental professionals and technicians who require a reliable, repeatable method for tooth color assessment without added complexity.
