摘要
The objective of the present research was to determine the degree of masking which occurs when 0.2 mm densely sintered aluminum oxide is placed over substrates of various colors. 20 lighter and 20 darker substrates were made from a mixture of dental amalgam and resin in an aluminum mold. The thin (0.2 mm) disks of densely sintered aluminum oxide were placed on the various substrates. The color changes after masking by these disks were recorded using a Minolta Chroma Meter Ⅱ. The results showed that the color (L *, a *, b *) changes after placing the disks over the substrates were obvious and lead to statistical significant differences (P<0.000 1) in ΔE, ΔL *, Δa *, Δb *. The masking ability was more pronounced with the aluminum oxide over the dark substrates than the light substrates.
