Abstract Objectives: The study aims to assess the predictability of color coordinates of resin composite, hybrid ceramic, and porcelain CAD/CAM restorative materials to estimate their final color based on their thickness, over colored backgrounds, and under different illuminants. Material and Methods: Disk-shaped samples (n=36/material) with thicknesses (n=12) of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mm will be fabricated with A2 shade and high translucency level (HT) CAD/CAM blocks of Lava Ultimate (LU), Grandio Blocs (GB), VITA Enamic (VE), and VITABLOCS Mark II (VM). After polishing (600, 1200, 1500, and 2000-grit SiC abrasive papers), a non-contact spectroradiometer with CIE 45º/0º illuminating/measuring geometry will be used to measure the spectral reflectance of samples. Measurements will be taken over a standardized black background and nine fabricated backgrounds: ND1-ND9 (IPS Natural Die Material). Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms will be used as a predictive method to reconstruct spectral data and CIE-L*, a*, and b* color coordinates as a function of sample thicknesses. The reflectance spectrum data will be converted to CIEL* CIEa*, and CIEb* coordinates to calculate color differences (E00) between the measured and predicted values. Color differences will be obtained for each material thickness over each ND-colored background and under illuminants CIE D65, A, F2, and nine white LEDs. Root mean square error (RMSE), goodness-of-fit coefficient (GFC), correlation coefficient (R2) as well as E00 with corresponding 50:50% acceptability and perceptibly thresholds (AT00 and PT00) for dentistry will be used as performance assessment of the method. From these methods, the data will be analyzed to verify the effects of the studied variables. | |
