Which is a prerequisite for shade selection for composites?
Correct Answer: Tooth should not be dry as drying decreases translucency
Description: Shade of the tooth is determined before teeth are subjected to drying because dehydrated tooth becomes lighter in colour as a result of decrease in translucency.
Thus shade is selected on a wet tooth.
