The perfect match: mastering single anterior restorations
09 Oct 2026
Clinical Excellence Theatre
Learning Content
This presentation explores predictable shade matching for single anterior restorations, covering colour theory, hue, chroma, value and metamerism. Clinical cases demonstrate how standardised photography, effective workflows and clear lab communication improve results, giving attendees a practical, repeatable system for anterior aesthetic success.
Aims
Shade matching in single anterior restorations is often treated as an innate skill rather than a learnable system. This talk challenges that assumption, walking through the science of colour perception, the practicalities of clinical photography, and real cases to demonstrate that consistent, natural-looking results come from process and communication, not just a good eye.
