Summary A study using a HunterLab colorimeter was conducted to determine the colour effect of denture base materials on denture tooth acrylics. The results show that denture base materials create a measurable change in the chroma of denture tooth acrylics and suggest that optimal shade selection of teeth should include a determination of the background effects of denture base materials.
