Translucent and enamel effects which can be used in the following ways:
OPAL T
is a slightly opalescent translucent material which is often used in the incisal area
between Body and Opal Incisal to create a depth of shade.
OPAL SUPERLUCENT
is the most opalescent material available and has a bluish translucency. Opal Super-
lucent is slightly duller than Opal T, but will create an increased three dimensional
appearance when used between the Body and Incisal porcelains.
OPAL AMBER
produces a translucent orange effect which is often seen in middle aged teeth.
Note: Opal Effect and translucent powders can be mixed with Opal Incisal
powders to modify their translucency and colour.
OPAL OCCLUSAL
is used to emphasise the milky dull areas of occlusal surfaces and can also be used
to brighten the interproximal areas of anterior teeth.
Opal Occlusal
can be mixed with Opal Incisal or used individually.
OPAL WHITE E
has a duller and whiter appearance than Opal Occlusal and is used to create cusp
tips on molars or demineralised areas in anterior teeth. In most cases Opal White E is
mixed with other Opal Enamels and Translucent powders to decrease translucency.
Opal Milky has a creamy white opal appearance and is used in small amounts to
emphasise cusp tips and approximal areas.
The following case examples and outlines show how the various opal effects are
used (fig. 19-24).
