PURPOSE. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the color changes of an autopolymerizing PMMA resin used for interim fixed restorations, reinforced with $SiO_2$ nanoparticles. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Silica nanoparticles were blended with the PMMA resin powder through high-energy ball milling. Four shades of PMMA resin were used (A3, B3, C3, D3) and total color differences were calculated through the equations ${\Delta}E_{ab}=[({\Delta}L*)^2+({\Delta}a*)^2+({\Delta}b*)^2]^{1/2}$ and ${\Delta}E_{00}=[(\frac{{\Delta}L^{\prime}}{K_LS_L})^2+(\frac{{\Delta}C^{\prime}}{K_CS_C})^2+(\frac{{\Delta}H^{\prime}}{K_HS_H})^2+R_T(\frac{{\Delta}C^{\prime}}{K_CS_C})(\frac{{\Delta}H^{\prime}}{K_HS_H})]^{1/2}$. Statistically significant differences between ${\Delta}E_{ab}$ and the clinically acceptable values of 3.3 and 2.7 and those between ${\Delta}E_{00}$ and the clinically acceptable value of 1.8 were evaluated with one sample t-test (P<.05). Differences among the different shades were assessed through One-Way ANOVA and Bonferroni multiple comparison tests. RESULTS. Significantly lower values were detected for all groups concerning ${\Delta}E_{ab}$ compared to the intraorally clinical acceptable values of 3.3 and 2.7. Significantly lower mean values were detected for groups B3, C3, and D3, concerning ${\Delta}E_{00}$ compared to the intraorally clinical acceptant value of 1.8. Color pigments in red-brown (A3) and red-grey (D3) shades affect the total color change to a greater extent after the reinforcement with $SiO_2$ nanoparticles compared to the red-yellow (B3) shade. CONCLUSION. Within the limitations of this in vitro study, it can be suggested that reinforcing PMMA with $SiO_2$ nanoparticles at 0.25 wt% slightly affects the optical properties of the PMMA resin without being clinically perceivable.

The purpose of this study was to investigate by spectrophotometry the changes in color parameters of composite resins after exposure to distilled water, filtered coffee, and artificial saliva. Five kinds of fine particle composite resin in experiment 1, and six kinds of composite resin in experiment 2 were used. In experiment 1, each group of composite resin was stored in distilled water at $4^{\circ}C$, $50^{\circ}C$, and filtered coffee solution at $4^{\circ}C$, $50^{\circ}C$. And then each specimen was measured by spectrophotometer. Measurements were repeated in 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 16 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours. In experiment 2, all specimens of each brand were stored in distilled water at $37^{\circ}C$, artificial saliva not contained mucin at $37^{\circ}C$, and artificial saliva contained mucin at $37^{\circ}C$. All specimens of each brand were measured by spectrophotormeter in 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and up to 12 weeks. The results were as follows : 1. In cold coffee, five of fine particle composite resins showed ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$ values less than 2. However, in hot coffee ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$ values of Amelogen Universal and Prisma TPH were higher than those of Conquest Crystal, ${\AE}$litefil and Z100. 2. Z100 and ${\AE}$litefil had better cleansibility of extrinsic coffee staining than Amelogen Universal, Conquest Crystal and Prisma TPH. 3. In distilled water and artificial saliva not contained mucin, five of fine particle composite resin showed ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$ values less than 2 up to 12 weeks. However, Silux Plus showed higher than ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$ values of fine particle composite resin. 4. As an immersion solution for discoloration experiment, artificial saliva not contained mucin showed similar appearance as distilled water. However, artificial saliva contained mucin had different appearance from the others. 5. In artificial saliva contained mucin, ${\AE}$litefil, Prisma TPH and Z100 showed ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$ values less than 1 up to 12 weeks. However, Silux Plus, Amelogen Universal and Conquest Crystal showed ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$ values more than 1 up to 12 weeks. But, Conquest Crystal showed different characteristics of chromacity difference value(less chromatic) and lightness difference value(lighter) from Silux Plus and Amelogen Universal.

Development of new ceramics and esthetic needs of patients increase the use of all ceramic restorations. Fractured teeth often need metal post and core as foundation for final restoration. When all ceramic restorations are planned, metal post and core may lead to compromised esthetics because of opacity and gray color of metal post and core. Many techniques have been proposed to solve this problem such as application of an opaque porcelain to the metal core or all ceramic post and core. This study was performed to evaluate effect on color of Empress 2 crown according to various post systems. Color was evaluated by the CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ systems and measured by spectrophotometer (Model CM-3500, Minolta, Japan). Specimens were divided into 4 groups as follows Group 1 : gold cast post specimen + Empress 2 crown specimen Group 2 : application of an opaque porcelain to gold cast post specimen + Empress 2 crown specimen Group 3 : cosmopost specimen + Empress 2 crown specimen Group 4 : In-ceram post specimen + Empress 2 crown specimen. The results obtained as follows, 1. $L^*$ Values showed that group 2, 3, 4 were higher than group 1 with significant difference and group 2, 3, 4 were not significantly different. 2. $a^*$ Values and $b^*$ values also showed that group 2. 3, 4 were higher than group 1 with significant difference and group 2, 3, 4 were not significantly different. 3. ${\Delta}E^* ab$ Values showed that ${\Delta}E^* ab$ 3 was the highest value and ${\Delta}E^* ab$ 5 was the lowest value.

본 연구의 목적은 레진시멘트 색상이 상용 지르코니아 크라운의 색상에 미치는 영향을 평가하는 것이다. 연구에는 $NuSmile^{(R)}$ ZR Zirconia LT Shade (LT) 지르코니아와 $RelyX^{TM}$ U200 TR, A2, A3O (TR, A2, A3O) 레진시멘트를 사용했다. 이 때 지르코니아와 레진시멘트 시편은 직경 5 mm, 두께 1 mm의 디스크 형으로 각 조건 당 다섯 개씩 제작했다. CIE $L^*a^*b^*$값은 검은색과 흰색 배경에서 분광 광도계를 사용해 지르코니아와 레진시멘트 단독 조건과 겹친 조건에서 각각 측정했다. 레진시멘트 색상이 상용 지르코니아 크라운의 색상에 미치는 영향은 측정된 값을 이용해, 반투명도(TP, translucency parameter), 대조비(CR, contrast ratio), 색차(${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$)의 계산을 통해 평가했다. 각 변수에 대한 평균값과 표준편차는 동일한 실험군에서 CIE $L^*a^*^b^*$ 값을 3회씩 측정하여 구했다. 실험군의 통계적 유의성은 일원배치 분산분석(one-way ANOVA)과 Tukey-multiple comparisons test로 검증했다. 그 결과, 지르코니아 하방에 레진시멘트를 겹친 조건일 때는 지르코니아 단독 조건일 때에 비해 반투명도는 감소했고(p<0.05) 대조비는 증가했다. 검은색 배경에서 지르코니아와 지르코니아 하방에 레진시멘트를 겹쳤을 때의 색차는 모든 실험군에서 색의 변화를 인지할 수 없었고 LT/A3O 조합에서 최소값을 보였다. 한편, 흰색 배경에서 지르코니아와 지르코니아 하방에 레진시멘트를 겹쳤을 때의 색차는 LT/TR 조합에서 색변화를 임상적으로 허용할 수 있는 경계값을 보였다. LT/A2 조합에서는 색변화를 임상적으로 허용할 수 없었고, LT/A3O 조합에서는 색변화를 인지할 수 있었으나 임상적으로 허용할 수 있는 수준이었다. 이상의 결과와 같이 본 연구의 한계 내에서는, 흰색 배경의 LT/A2 조합 외에는 지르코니아 색상에 임상적으로 허용할 수 없는 색변화를 주는 레진시멘트는 없었다. 그 중 지르코니아 색상에 최소한의 영향을 미치는 레진시멘트 색상은 A3O였다. 따라서, 본 연구와 동일한 상용 지르코니아 크라운을 치아에 접착할 때 색변화를 최소화하기 위해서는 A3O 색상의 레진시멘트 사용이 추천된다.

고화질 디지털 카메라가 널리 보급되면서 디지털 카메라는 단순한 영상 기록 장치가 아닌 정보 저장 매체로써 다양한 분야에서 사용되고 있다. 그러나 디지털 카메라의 분광 감도가 표준 관측자의 색 일치 함수와 다르기 때문에 카메라로는 색이 정확하게 측정될 수 없다. 본 연구는 카메라 이미지를 피사체의 색 정보를 지니고 있는 sRGB 이미지로 변환하는 방법에 관한 것이다. 디지털 카메라의 출력 신호와 CIE 삼자극치간의 변환 행렬은 Macbeth ColorChecker 24색을 기준 색으로 하여 다중 회귀법을 사용하여 구하였다. 변환 행렬을 이용하여 카메라의 출력 신호로부터 피사체의 실제 색을 찾아내어 이상적인 sRGB 표준 모니터에 정확하게 나타낼 수 있는 RGB 데이터로 변환하였다. Kodak DC220 디지털 카메라로 생성된 Macbeth ColorChecker의 sRGB 이미지와 실제 색과의 평균 색차는 2.1 $\Delta$ $E_{ab}$ $^{*}$ 시험 색표로 사용된 IT8 Reference KIT(286색)의 sRGB 이미지와 실제 색과의 평균 색차는 4.6 $\Delta$ $E_{ab}$ $^{*}$ 로 계산되었다. ab/$^{*}$ 로 계산되었다.

The color reproduction of digital still camera does not, in general, match those of the final output device. Because color gamut of these devices is different, it is therefore necessary to take account of a way to match. The way uses the optimized profile to output device an image. This paper proposed a way to create the input profile of digital still camera for standardization soft proofing process. The results of proposed way showed that for input profiles equivalent, good results relatively. In this paper, an experiment was done where the illumination sources used as the standard illumination 5200K and illuminated at a $45^{\circ}$ angle in the best illumination efficiently. The white balance was in mode 'custom' : aperture F11, exposure time 1/60s, ISO50, focal length 80mm. The images were exported and saved as 16bit RGB TIFF(AdobeRGB, sRGB, ProphotoRGB) images. To do the test, the RGB values of the RGB TIFF images are processed through the ICC input profile to arrive at processed $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ values. A profiling tool such as ProfileMaker 5.0 and Monacoprofile 4.8 are used to do this. The processed $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ values are compared to the reference $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ values and these two values are used to calculate a ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$.

PURPOSE. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the color of a background substructure on the overall color of a zirconia-based all-ceramic crown. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Twenty one posterior zirconia crowns were made for twenty subjects. Seven premolar crowns and six molar crowns were cemented onto abutments with metal post and core in the first and second group. In the third group, eight molar crowns were cemented onto abutments with a prefabricated post and composite core build-up. The color measurements of all-ceramic crowns were made before try-in, before and after cementation. A repeated measure ANOVA was used for a statistical analysis of a color change of all-ceramic crowns at ${\alpha}$=.05. Twenty four zirconia specimens, with different core thicknesses (0.4-1 mm) were also prepared to obtain the contrast ratio of zirconia materials after veneering. RESULTS. $L^*$, $a^*$, and $b^*$ values of all-ceramic crowns cemented either on a metal cast post and core or on a prefabricated post did not show significant changes (P>.05). However, the slight color changes of zirconia crowns were detected and represented by ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$ values, ranging from 1.2 to 3.1. The contrast ratios of zirconia specimens were 0.92-0.95 after veneering. CONCLUSION. No significant differences were observed between the $L^*$, $a^*$, and $b^*$ values of zirconia crowns cemented either on a metal cast post and core or a prefabricated post and composite core. However, the color of a background substructure could affect the overall color of posterior zirconia restorations with clinically recommended core thickness according to ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$ values.
