Color evaluation of a one-shade used for restoration of non-carious cervical lesions: an equivalence randomized clinical trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Obtaining a perfect color match with resin composite presents a significant challenge. The chameleon effect has enabled resin composite to mimic the color of the adjacent tooth structure in vitro. This double-blind, split-mouth and equivalent randomized clinical trial evaluated the color matching of one-shade resin composite with chameleon effect versus multi-shade resin composite in non-carious cervical lesion restorations (NCCLs).

Methods

One hundred twenty restorations were performed on NCCLs with two restorative materials (n = 60). After prophylaxis, the teeth were isolated with rubber dam and one universal adhesive was applied in the selective enamel etching strategy. For both groups, the restorations were inserted incrementally. The values of ΔE_ab
