Complex composite restoration replacement ahead of a wedding.  This nice lady drove 6 hours to have these restorations replaced.  The chroma internally was quite surprising and despite a well-matched dentin mass to disguise the fracture lines, a body shade (B0.5U) was required to lift the value more than B0.5E could have, thus decreasing the visibility of the incisal maverick effects built in.  Rehydration should see a very close match.
