Attaining the highest clinical level in esthetic and cosmetic dentistry necessitates the development of artistic skills; of balancing illusion with reality. The shade of a tooth is a combination of color and light and varies in different light conditions. Understanding the differences in color shades is the basis to creating illusions. Understanding light and color, and the reality of illusions, allows the clinician to design and sculpt a smile, to modify a flawed display artistically so that patients may perceive it as natural and more attractive, and to design laminates and veneers, class III, class IV, and cervical cavities.
在美学和美容牙科领域达到最高临床水平需要培养艺术技能，即平衡幻觉与现实的能力。牙齿的色泽是颜色与光线的结合，在不同光照条件下会有所变化。了解色泽差异是创造幻觉的基础。理解光线和颜色以及幻觉的实际情况，能使临床医生设计并雕琢笑容，艺术性地修正有缺陷的外观，让患者觉得自然且更具吸引力，还能设计贴面以及修复III类、IV类和颈部龋洞。
