DESCRIPTION

For 50 years, dentists around the world have used the VITA classical (Lumin Vacuum) shade guide for their shade selection needs. The 16 shades in this revolutionary guide have earned a permanent home in the international lexicon of dental terminology; whenever a familiar shade from this invaluable guide is prescribed (such as A2 or C1), it is for the sole purpose of providing satisfaction to both dentist and patient. Now there is also a bleached extension available that adds 3D-MASTER shades 0M1, 0M2 and 0M3.


A very popular repositioning of the tabs in VALUE order: B1, A1, B2, D2, A2, C1, C2, D4, A3, D3, B3, A3.5, B4, C3, A4, C4.




The VITA classical A1 – D4 shade guide serves to accurately determine tooth shade.


The arrangement of the shades in the VITA classical family of shades is as follows:


A1 - A4 (reddish-brownish)


B1 - B4 (reddish-yellowish)


C1 - C4 (greyish shades)


D2 - D4 (reddish-grey)


Tips for shade-taking
If possible, determine the shade under daylight conditions or standardised daylight lamps, and not under normal indoor lighting conditions.
The shade-taking environment should preferably be in muted colours. Patients should be asked to remove lipstick or any cosmetics which could have an influence on shade- taking. Clothing in pronounced colours should be covered with a grey overall.
Make your choice swiftly; always accept your first decision, since the eyes begin to tire after approx. 5 – 7 seconds.
Procedure:
Hold the shade guide at a suitable distance (at arm’s length) against the patient’s mouth.
Make your choice of shade without hesitation by comparing the shade samples of the shade groups A – D with the natural tooth.
Disinfect the shade guide after every shade
