English term or phrase:The shade tab
The 'shade tab' must, therefore, be small enough not to overwhelm the tooth, be able to be brought close to it and, when necessary, to be looked at alongside other colours not normally found next to it on the guide.
I am actually having a hard time with the whole sentence, any help is much appreciated!
Je pourrais encore vous en mettre quantité, je suis certaine qu'il s'agit du terme employé en cabinet et dans l'industrie dentaire en Europe. Si votre traduction est pour le Canada, je ne peux rien garantir mais si c'est pour l'Europe, j'en suis sûre!
To be more precise, teintier = shade guide. The shade guide wconsists of tabs. You might want to add "languette du teintier."

When the dentist made me a crown he had to match the color of my other tooth/teeth with the crown. The dental lab provides them with different colors (shade tabs) which they place next to your natural tooth in order to select a color.
