Even though the colour may not be important to the physiological success of a dental restoration, it plays a dominant role in patient acceptance. Patients are currently demanding esthetic replacement that must match their existing dentition, and are more concerned about the shade match of their restoration rather than the quality of the restoration. Material and Method: The retrospective study was conducted in a university setting. Data was collected from the patients who visited Saveetha dental college between June 2019 to February 2021. Among 21,843 patients who had reported to the department of conservative dentistry and endodontics of Saveetha dental college, prevalence of Common composite shades used for restoration of mandibular molar teeth was calculated. Result: It was noted that the most common age group to undergo treatment for composite restoration patients in the age group of 18-30 years (58.17%) (Figure 1).The most prevalent gender to undergo this treatment were Male (56.45%) (Figure 2). Most common treatment underwent by patients were class 1 LCR (97.89%) (Figure 3). Most prevalent teeth to be treated was Tooth number 47 (25.52%) (Figure 4). Most common shade used was A2 (81.23%) (Figure 5). Conclusion: Within the limitations of the study, it can be concluded the prevalence of Common composite shades used for restoration of mandibular molar teeth was most commonly seen in males than females. Significant association was present between the ages, gender with shade used.
