Determining the perceptibility and acceptability threshold of the relative translucency parameter‐ A pilot study
Clinically relevant RTP thresholds for translucency perception and acceptability were established. These findings validate RTP as a meaningful and quantifiable tool for assessing esthetic differences in translucency among restorative materials. The results have implications for material selection and clinical decision-making in prosthodontics.
