Shade measurment

[alexnokkvi]

Hi all,

I'm curious to know how/where you take shade measurement if you ever do?
We're setting up a little space at out lab specifically for that but unfortunately we don't have any windows in that space.
Could anyone here advice me of a specific light setup, wall paint etc for it?

Thanks!

Are you asking about taking shades in the office or color matching crowns in the lab? The simplest answer is to use color corrected bulbs, but there are more things to consider, if you let us know more about what you are doing we should be able to provide better answers

We have all color corrected light in the lab. Since we are now legally allowed to get into the dental office to take shades we have been using the line Shade light This guy here It works very well.

Unfortunately we do not have any windows in this room, do you think color corrected lights would do?

It should work fine, just make sure to get quality ones
