tooth color is seen in what color range
yellow and brown range
chroma defiens
color intensity or strength

value of E that will determine a noticeably different color change
2.3
Inadequacies of shade guide
- color range does not cover the entire color of natural tooth
- tabs are not evenly arranged in the color solid; color between neighboring tabs is unequal
- lack of consistency among various shade guides, different companies use different shade standards, slightly different but still significant
- poor match between shade tabs and their corresponding commposite shades
- light cure may alter after composite color differences 3.7-12.0 unit
describe liquid and gas matter
what holds them together?
held together by hydrogen bond or can der waals forces
no confined dimension
easy to deform
definition of phase?
examples
phase is a region of space with essentially uniform physical property
- like crystalline (cubic zirconia, ice, most ceramics, metal)
- amorphous (wax, carbon black, glass)
multi-phasic materials
IPN (interpenetration network)
composite
main mineral in dental enamel
fluoridated carbonated- calcium deficient hydroxyapetite
- main mineral of which dental enamel and dentin are comprised
percent of water in mature enamel
less than 5
describe crystals in enamel
ribbon or needle like carbonated HAP nanocrystal
HIGHLY organized
