Digital photography is increasingly used in dentistry, with the indication in case documentation as well as communication with the patient and dental technician. The aim of this study is the clinical evaluation of new software developed for tooth color assessment from digital images, taken in general practice-working conditions. The color parameters generated by the software were compared with the spectrophotometric measurements. Color difference, ΔE* between the color parameters (obtained from images and spectrophotometer) was below the acceptability threshold value in 88% of the cases. Strong Spearman's and Pearson correlation’s (0.954, and 0.973 (p<0.001)) were obtained when the results were presented in Vita 3D Master shade tab codification. The software was able to match shade tab colors, from the digital images with good accuracy. Further improvements are required in order to increase program performance..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
