Bleach shades with Creation

[howitsmade]

Hi all...
What is the major strategy in building bleach shades using creation Zi-CT? Which dentin should i use for BL3 anterior crown? I couldn't find any info at internet.

Go to Willi Geller website to print out his 3D conversion chart or call Jensen for their chart..........
Works for me.........

Don't take this photo as gospel, as my A shades are "tweaked" just a bit (a little DR added to mine to neutralize the Creation "yellow" in their A shades). But to give you a ballpark starting point, this is Creation ZI-F with the BL3 tab in-between.

The A0.5 is 2pts BDA and 1pt A1. I would recommend firing up a couple of shade tabs to see in hand what you're getting on your end.

From what I've learned matching 3d shades with layered zirconia, make sure your frame shade has a slightly higher value. If you try to make your frame
match almost perfect to the final shade, light 3d shades end up being grey,, low value........

Edit: Depending on the brand of porcelain, you may need to use uncolored frame to match several of the lightest 3d shades........
Make notes to keep refining/tweaking these shades !!!!!!!!!
Bottom line, you can't add yellow on top of grey looking shades

I use ZI-CT... BL3... 3/4 BD-A + 1/4 A1.. Bleach Enamel with 15% PS-0.. Make sure frame is lighter than BL3
