CHALLENGES OF A SINGLE CENTRAL INCISOR
*Usually Freehand
*Dehydration
*Positional discrepancies with the contralateral
*Dimensional excesses – a very thick tooth in this case
Restorative: Voco Amaris Shades O2, TN
The beauty of Amaris is in its value-shaded gradient in both enamel and dentin shades. Each shade is separated in color space by 3deltaE, so it is easy to judge which is the most appropriate shade. Unfortunately in this case there was an excessive thickness of enamel, which dropped the value slightly relative to the UL1. A solution for this would have been to bump up the dentin shade from O2 to O1 and stick with translucent neutral (TN) as the enamel, or stay with O2 as we have done and change the enamel to translucent light (TL).
