DD Shade Guide - for reliable tooth shade determination

A pilot study shows that incorrect tooth shade determinations and related color corrections on dentures result in additional costs in the multi-digit million range per year for dental laboratories. This additional expenditure of money and time is not only a burden for the laboratories, but also for dentists and patients.
