Vita Classical Shade Guide
The VITA Classical Shade Guide is an essential tool for dental professionals in accurately determining tooth shades for restorative procedures. This comprehensive shade guide comprises sixteen distinct color categories, each represented by a range of shades denoted by letters and numbers, from A1 to D4. These categories encompass a spectrum of natural tooth colors, including reddish-brownish, reddish-yellowish, grayish, and reddish-grayish tones. To ensure precise color matching, the guide should be held at an angle of approximately 25-30 cm from the patient's tooth, with the arm comfortably bent.

- Preparation: Familiarize yourself with the shade categories and color ranges of the Vita Classical Shade Guide before use.
- Positioning: Hold the shade guide approximately 25–30 cm (10–12 inches) away from the patient’s tooth, with your arm slightly bent.
- Assessment: Compare the natural tooth color with shade samples in groups A–D, making your selection swiftly.
- Pre-Preparation Assessment: Determine the tooth shade before any preparation. Post-preparation dehydration may make the tooth appear lighter.
- Lighting Conditions: Conduct shade determination under natural daylight or standardized daylight lamps (5500K–6500K). Avoid typical indoor lighting.
- Environmental Considerations: Use a neutral-colored environment. Remove any lipstick or cosmetics and cover brightly colored clothing with a gray cape to prevent color interference.
- Proximity: Position the shade sample tooth as close as possible to the patient’s tooth for accurate comparison.
- Focus Area: Focus on the middle area of the shade sample tooth for selecting the shade.
- Prompt Decision Making: Make your selection quickly, as visual fatigue sets in after 5–7 seconds.
- Disinfection: After use, disinfect the Vita Classical Shade Guide with mild surface disinfectants or wipes, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Material Care: The acrylic parts of the shade guide are made from durable, temperature-resistant material that is easy to clean and suitable for surface disinfection.
