Shade taking is pivotal for the desired aesthetic of an implant. To help dental nurses with this process, Kash Qureshi, a clinical dental technician based at the Swissedent Denture Clinic, London, will be presenting a talk, entitled “50 Shades of White”, at the ADI Team Congress 2025. Kash shares some details:

“The talk will look at shades during restorations, with a focus on taking shades, including for edentulous patients, and communicating colour to mimic what’s in the mouth. It is vital that the lab team get the correct shade match – the more information they have to utilise, the more likely the implant will meet the patient’s aesthetic expectations.

“I hope the talk will open a new doorway for dental nurses in particular; learning shade taking builds up value in the dental team and ensures that process can be done quickly and effectively. I hope attendees gain a better understanding of colour and that new skills are picked up. The ADI Team Congress 2025 is an excellent opportunity for the whole dental team to come together and grow our understanding of implant treatments.”
