Kataoka and Nishimura reduce the naturalness of a ceramic restoration to three aspects the ceramist must master separately before combining them: the morphology of each tooth, its alignment within the arch, and the colour of the natural tooth. The book develops them as an atlas, drawing on extensive photographic material that serves as a benchmark for comparison during the work. Its usefulness is eminently practical: to give the technician a precise visual reference against which to adjust form and colour until the restoration works and, above all, goes unnoticed. A print volume, in English.
