- Abstract
Color is very important in oral medicine. This article presents a few solutions to problems that arise in dental image color analysis. Images taken by a digital camera are calibrated (using VitaPan 3D Master and 18% Grey Card) and, afterwards, the colors that appear in various areas of interest are analysed. The user interface uses the CIE L*a*b* color space and for color comparison the ΔE*ab distance metric is used. The aim of this article is the development of software capable of color analysis performed on a digital image of a dental tooth structure or restorative surface. The analysis of digitally recorded images, performed by computers, may provide important information that can help dentists in achieving superior results.
