Esthetical Properties of Single-Shade and Multishade Composites in Posterior Teeth

Figure 3

Percentage of restorations considered more esthetic for each composite, according to the Vita shades (X-tra = Admira Fusion X-tra —single-shade composite, AF = Admira Fusion—multishade composite). For the teeth considered A4, B4, and C4, the restoration with the multishade composite was considered more esthetical at most of the specimen’s tested, evidencing that the single shade composite was less able to match the substrate.
