Dr Waseem-Ul-Ayoub | Dr Raisa Rashid

Abstract: To restore a tooth to its functional health, four basic determinants of dental esthetics, position, contour, texture and colour in the said sequence are required. Clark1 said, Color, like form, has three dimensions, Hue, Value, and Chroma. An understanding of the science of color and color perception is crucial to success in the ever-expanding field of esthetic restorative dentistry. It is possible to arrange color in a manner that makes this three-dimensional enigma understandable. The Munsell Color Order System is recommended as the system of choice for dentists who wish to gain a working knowledge of color.
