Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of spectrophotometers for objective tooth color measurement, particularly in bleaching procedures enhanced by digital positioning templates. Methods: Tooth color registration was conducted using both subjective methods with shade guides and objective methods with spectrophotometers. Spectrophotometers were chosen for their ability to provide objective, quantifiable, and reproducible results, crucial for monitoring color modifications accurately. Digital workflows were implemented to enhance the registration process further. These workflows included providing a precise positioning matrix for spectrophotometer sensors and optimizing working models to ensure high-quality therapeutic splints. Results: The use of spectrophotometers demonstrated superior performance in registering tooth color objectively compared to subjective shade guides. Digital workflows significantly improved the precision and efficiency of spectrophotometer measurements through a digital matrix, enhancing the quality of therapeutic splints obtained. Conclusions: Spectrophotometers are recommended for objective and precise tooth color registration, particularly in bleaching procedures. Integrating a digital positioning matrix enhances measurement accuracy and reliability, supporting effective monitoring and treatment outcomes.
