In writing
my first book Shape and Colour, my primary goal was
to convey my working technique to as many interested
colleagues as possible. The overwhelming echo from
both dentists and dental technicians rewarded my efforts.
The corresponding reactions and suggestions from my
readers have been taken into consideration in my second
book. Hence it is a logical sequence to my previous
observations - although it differs in content and
design. With Analysis, I would like to help facilitate
and improve the communication between dental practices
and laboratories. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult
to convey detailed information of tooth type or smiles
of individual patients via the telephone. Details
of shape, layering, translucency, surface texture,
or the exact position of teeth in their oral environment
are even more difficult to communicate from a distance.
Being aware of these obstacles, I systematically started
to file photographs of natural teeth and to codify
them. Finally, I made this collection available to
my customers. Every customer was now in the position
to make the necessary differentiation by means of
a simple analytical procedure. After that, they were
able to supply me with their requirements by means
of alphanumeric and numerical codes.
