Ivoclar Vivadent | 4 Seasons | True Color Shades

With 4 Seasons, you can
be confident that your final restoration will meet your shade expectations.

Throughout the developmental process, key color analysts (technicians, clinicians and
specialists) were consulted
to insure that 4 Seasons was designed to match the
standard A-D shades as well
as mimic the translucency, opacity, fluorescence and value of natural tooth structure.

Available in two basic shade groups, Dentin and Enamel,
4 Seasons gives you
outstanding esthetic results.

Translucency
& Opacity

With dentin being more opaque than enamel, it is
virtually impossible to restore the original optical properties of natural teeth with just one shade. 4 Seasons’ Dentin and Enamel shades, feature calibrated translucencies that work together to give you the power to create exceptional esthetics with accurate color every time.

4 Seasons’ Dentin shades were developed with a more
opacious (7.4-7.9%) saturated chroma to support the basic color of the tooth structure from within. All 4 Seasons Enamel shades are produced within a tight tolerance of higher translucency (13.2-14.2%) to provide a natural depth to the restoration and diffuse the dentinal substrate. This combination of calibrated translucencies and tight tolerances assures consistent color matching. (See chart below.)

Specialty Shades

4 Seasons provides esthetic solutions for all of your patients by offering all traditional “A-D” shades as well as a range of Bleach shades and Extra Dark Dentin shades.

You also have the opportunity
to take direct esthetics to a higher level with 4 Seasons Enamel Translucent shades (Clear, Super Clear and
Amber) which provide surface characterization with translucency levels up to 56%. Additionally, 4 Seasons Enamel Effects shades (White and Blue) allow you to characterize life-like restorations from within.

Shade Guides

The 4 Seasons shade guides
include ceramic shade tabs
depicting the various shades
and degrees of translucency
of the actual 4 Seasons
composite material. The ceramic shade tabs provide long term
stability enabling a consistent
shade match over time.
