Getting the Teeth Shade RightThe smile simulation is done and the teeth look great, but the color or shade is not right. This might be the most difficult part of the simulation because the color and tone quality of the photo often is different than the teeth simulation. This video shows how to get shade of the teeth to match the smile portrait. |
Adjustment LayersUsing the Hue Saturation and Curves as non-destructive editable Adjustment Layers to control the color and the tone of the teeth. |
Quick MaskUsing the Quick Mask Mode to create more accurate and editable masks. |
Photo TipsDo not photograph the patient in the dental chair. |
