Luting media included RelyX Veneer (Translucent, A3, WO), Omnichroma Universal, Omnichroma Blocker, Filtek Z250 XT B1, and Vittra APS E\u2010Bleach. Specimens were aged by thermocycling (10,000 cycles, 5\u201355\u00b0C) followed by coffee immersion (7 days, 37\u00b0C). Color was measured over white and black backgrounds at baseline and post\u2010aging using a spectrophotometer. Outcomes included CIEDE2000 color difference (\u0394\n E<\/jats:italic>\n 00<\/jats:sub>\n ), whiteness index change (\u0394WI\n D<\/jats:sub>\n ), and translucency parameter change (\u0394TP\n 00<\/jats:sub>\n ). Data were analyzed using one\u2010way ANOVA with Holm\u2010adjusted pairwise comparisons (\n \u03b1<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0=\u00a00.05). Results were interpreted against established perceptibility and acceptability thresholds (PT\n 00<\/jats:sub>\n \u00a0=\u00a00.8, AT\n 00<\/jats:sub>\n \u00a0=\u00a01.8; whiteness perceptibility threshold\u00a0=\u00a00.72, whiteness acceptability threshold\u00a0=\u00a02.62; TPT\n 00<\/jats:sub>\n \u00a0=\u00a00.62, TAT\n 00<\/jats:sub>\n \u00a0=\u00a02.62).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Luting medium significantly affected all optical outcomes (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0<\u00a00.001). For the primary endpoint (\u0394\n E<\/jats:italic>\n 00<\/jats:sub>\n over black background), Omnichroma Universal showed the smallest change (0.27\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.10), whereas Vittra APS E\u2010Bleach showed the largest (4.38\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.34), exceeding the acceptability threshold in all specimens. Omnichroma Blocker (0.57\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.15) did not differ significantly from Omnichroma Universal after Holm adjustment for the primary endpoint. Filtek Z250 XT B1 (1.30\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.22) exceeded the perceptibility threshold in all specimens. For whiteness change, Vittra APS E\u2010Bleach exceeded the acceptability threshold in all specimens (\u0394WI\n D<\/jats:sub>\n \u00a0=\u00a06.51\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.29), whereas Omnichroma groups showed negative \u0394WI\n D<\/jats:sub>\n values (\u22120.80\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.36 and \u22120.73\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.52). Translucency changes remained below clinically detectable thresholds across all groups.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n For ultrathin, HT ZLS veneers, aging\u2010related optical stability was highly luting material\u2010specific. Omnichroma Blocker did not provide superior aging\u2010related masking stability compared with Omnichroma Universal for the primary dark\u2010background endpoint. Vittra APS E\u2010Bleach showed color and whiteness changes that exceeded acceptability thresholds under the tested aging conditions, whereas translucency changes remained limited across all luting
