The application of bleaching agents before placement of resin-bonded fixed appliances significantly, but temporarily, reduces bond strength to tooth structure. Antioxidants have been studied as a means to remove residual oxygen that compromises bonding to bleached enamel. This in vitro study evaluated whether green tea (GT) could restore the shear bond strength between bonded orthodontic bracke...

Pigments of food and beverages could affect dental bleaching efficacy. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate color change and mineral loss of tooth enamel as well as the influence of staining solutions normally used by adolescent patients undergoing home bleaching. Initial hardness and baseline color were measured on enamel blocks. Specimens were divided into five groups (n=5): G1 (cont...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate in vitro the effect of formulations containing Biosilicate to treat enamel and dentin bovine samples exposed to dental bleaching agents. MATERIALS AND METHODS On enamel and dentin bleached with commercial gels containing 16% carbamide peroxide (CP) (14 days/4 h) or 35% hydrogen peroxide (single session/45 min), desensitizing dentifrices (Sensodyne(®); ex...

The increase in aesthetic demands has increased the use of ceramic dental restorations dentistry. Ceramic are bonded to tooth structure using adhesives. There is a lack standard guidelines terms post-bleaching time intervals and bond strengths restorations. Bleaching products have also been stated affect morphology enamel. Therefore, purpose this systematic review evaluate strength between enam...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of incorporating three different nanobiomaterials into bleaching material on microhardness of bleached enamel. MATERIALS AND METHODS The crowns of 24 extracted sound human molars were sectioned. Sixty enamel specimens (2 × 3 × 4 mm) were selected and divided into five groups (n = 12): Group 1 received no bleaching procedure ...

Aim: To assess the influence of two adhesive systems on the bond strength of the restorative material to enamel and dentin after bleaching. Materials and method: 60 non-carious extracted premolar teeth after bleaching with 40% Hydrogen peroxide were divided into four groups based on type of adhesive system used and the tooth surface i.e. enamel and dentin used for bonding. G1ET and G3DT were re...

BACKGROUND Dental whitening has been increasingly sought out to improve dental aesthetics, but may cause chemical and morphological changes in dental enamel surfaces. OBJECTIVE This study evaluated in vitro the effect of 10% strontium chloride and 5% potassium nitrate with fluoride on bovine enamel, through tristimulus colorimetry, Knoop microhardness (KHN), and roughness after bleaching with...

Various studies have reported a significant reduction in tensile bond strength of brackets when bonding is carried out immediately after bleaching. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of an antioxidant agent on the tensile bond strength values of metal brackets bonded with composite resin to human enamel after bleaching with carbamide peroxide (CP). A total of 80 extra...

We investigated the effect of sodium ascorbate (SA) on the microtensile bond strengths (MTBSs) of different composites to bovine enamel after vital bleaching with hydrogen peroxide (HP) or carbamide peroxide (CP). Thirty bovine incisors were randomly divided into five groups and treated with no bleaching application (control), 35% HP alone, 35% HP+10% SA for 10 minutes (HP+SA), 16% CP alone, or...

statement of problem: due to the growing popularity of vital bleaching by carbamide peroxide it is imperative to understand the effect of such agents on enamel and dentine. purpose: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of a 16% carbamide peroxide bleaching gel; vivastyle on enamel staining susceptibility. materials and methods: thirty bovine specimens were selected and randomly ...
