An overview of the various possibilities for oral surgery urgent care to the oral region has been presented. Modern treatment procedures have been described. The recent advances in dental science have become superior to what they were just a few short years ago; however, we must never forget the variabilities of human responses to any of our treatment techniques, and we must not be dogmatic in our approach. We should all be able to diagnose, interpret, and alter any of our treatment techniques as necessary.
This study compared a simple and readily available shade guide color-matching test with the general industry standard test for color discrimination. This study indicates that a simple screening test for color defective vision and color discrimination skills in dentistry can be performed by matching two Vita-Lumin shade guides. Those dental office personnel who score a low number of matches in the Vita test (that is, seven or fewer correct matches) should have additional color discrimination testing and refer shade matching to other personnel with higher scores.
