Optical Properties of Light Cured Luting Agent on Laminate Veneer

After the use of light-cured luting agent the color of laminate venners will be performed with visual evaluation based on Vita and 3D Master scales and with a spectrophotometer Vita Easyshade (Vita Zahnfabrik / Bad Saeckingen, Germany) based on CIEL\*a\* b system. Data collected will be evaluated for translucency parameter (TP) and color variation (ΔE) according to luting agent, thickness and color of the LVs as well as color of dental substrate. Additionally, the color obtained with visual evaluation and with spectrophotometer will be compared to evaluate the level of agreement between the color observed by the operator and the color named by the spectrophotometer.
