연구 목적: ShadeEye-Ncc dental chroma meter (Shofu Inc., Kyoto, Japan)와 Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system (Degudent Inc., Hanau, Germany)의 도재색조 재현의 정확성을 비교연구하여 보고자 함이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: ShadeEye-Ncc dental chroma meter와 Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system을 사용하여 Vitapan 3D Master shade guide의 2M2와 3M2 shade tap.을 측색하고, 이 자료를 통하여 shade guide tap. 형태로 도재시편을 제작한다. 시편제작 시 사용하는 porcelain system은 ShadeEye-Ncc dental chroma meter는 Vintage Halo Porcelain system을, Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system은 VitaOmega900 Porcelain system을 사용한다. 모델인 shade tap.과 제작된 도재시편을 spectrophotometer로 측색하고, 그 결과를 토대로하여 ${Delta}E$를 계산하여, 두 측색기의 정확성을 비교검증하였다. 결과: 1. Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system이 ShadeEye-Ncc dental chroma meter에 비하여 더 적합한 도재색조 재현성을 나타내었다 (P <.05). 2. 모델인 Shade tap.의 shade에 따라서 도재색조 재현성에 차이를 나타내었다. 2M2 shade tap.에 비하여 3M2 shade tap.에서 더 적합한 도재색조 재현성을 나타내었다 (P <.05). 3. 두 측색기 모두에서 제작된 도재시편의 ${Delta}E$가 평균4.44-6.14로 육안으로 구분 가능한 정도의 색조차이를 보였다. 결론: Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system이 비교적 더 정확한 도재색조 재현성을 나타낸다고 할 수 있으며, ShadeEye-Ncc dental chroma meter를 사용할 때는 치아 전체의 여러부분에서 측색을 하여 정확성을 높이는 것이 필요하리라 생각된다.
Statement of problem: Although the use of colorimeter to improve the accuracy of tooth color measurement has increased, it is real situation that there is almost no comparative study about the accuracy among various colorimeters. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare the accuracy of porcelain color reproducibility using ShadeEye-Ncc dental chroma meter (Shofu Inc., Kyoto, Japan) and Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system (Degudent Inc., Hanau, Germany). Material and methods: Color of 2M2 and 3M2 shade tap of Vitapan 3D Master shade guide were measured using the above two colorimeters. Porcelain specimens were fabricated through this data. The porcelain systems used were Vintage Halo Porcelain system with ShadeEye-Ncc dental chroma meter, and VitaOmega900 Porcelain system with Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system. Colors of shade tap models and porcelain specimen were measured with spectrophotometer, and calculated delta E based on the results. Results: The following results were obtained. 1. Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system showed more suitable porcelain color reproducibility compared to ShadeEye-Ncc dental chroma meter (P <.05). 2. The result showed the difference of porcelain color reproducibility according to shade of Shade tap which is model. More suitable porcelain color reproducibility was shown at 3M2 shade tap than at 2M2 shade tap (P <.05). 3. The average of ${Delta}E*$ of porcelain specimens which was made by the two colorimeters was 4.44-6.14, so the difference of shade was shown through the naked eye. Conclusion: Shadepilot$^{TM}$ system showed more suitable porcelain color reproducibility. When using ShadeEye-Ncc dental chromameter, it will be necessary to improve accuracy through coloring various parts of the whole tooth.
