title: Parameters that affect the color of denture resins.
abstract: The effect of specular reflection, background color and specimen thickness on the color of four commercial denture resins was studied by reflection spectrophotometry. Higher values of luminous reflectance and excitation purity were obtained with a white than with a black background, whereas dominant wavelength was lowered slightly.
