A goal of modern dentistry is to make an esthetic outcome as one of the major modalities in dental treatment. In recent years, more emphasis has been given to esthetic parameters, especially in the anterior regions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of change in pink and white esthetics scores after giving crowns in a single tooth. Subjects for this retrospective study were chosen by randomization from June 2019 to May 2020. A total of 120 subjects were selected which were equally divided with respect to age and gender. The analysis was done with a photographic assessment. The study test was done using paired t-test, and the correlation was evaluated using the Chi-square test. In this study, we observed that there is an increase in pink and white esthetic scores (WES) after the prosthesis is delivered. There was a clinical and statistically significant difference seen with the WES and total score, whereas only clinical but no statistical difference was seen with the pink esthetic score. After giving crowns, there is an increase in overall esthetic score. It is important to have certain standardized indices to score esthetics by which the overall esthetic outcomes can be improved. One such popular index is the pink and white esthetic index, which scores the soft and hard tissue.
