RESUMO
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to analyze the cost-effectiveness of whitening toothpastes and at-home bleaching for the treatment of tooth discoloration. Methodology A cost-effectiveness economic analysis was conducted, and eight randomized clinical trials were selected based on the whitening agent product used: blue covarine dentifrices (BCD), hydrogen peroxide dentifrices (HPD), dentifrices without bleaching agents (CD, negative control), and 10% carbamide peroxide (CP10, positive control) for at-home bleaching. The consumer/patient perspective was adopted, macro-costing techniques were used and a decision tree model was performed considering the costs in the American and Brazilian markets. The color change evaluation (ΔE*ab) was used to calculate the effectiveness of tooth bleaching. A probabilistic analysis was performed using a Monte Carlo simulation and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were obtained. Results CP10 resulted in the highest cost-effectiveness compared to the use of dentifrices in both markets. In Brazil, HPD was more cost-effective than BCD and CD. In the US, the increased costs of HPD and BCD did not generate any whitening benefit compared to CD. Conclusions CP10 was more cost-effective than BCD and HPD for tooth bleaching from the perspectives of the Brazilian and American markets. Decision-making should consider the use of CP10 for treating tooth discoloration.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT After ozone therapy for bleaching, it is important to evalúate enamel surface properties, to ensure that bleaching provides adequate conditions for sound dental substrate. Aim: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effects of a bleaching treatment with 10% carbamide peroxide (CP), with or without ozone (O), on the microhardness, roughness and micromorphology of the enamel surface. Materials and Method: Bovine enamel blocks were planed and distributed among the following three bleaching treatment groups (n=10): CP - 1 hour per day/14 days (Opalescence PF 10%/ Ultradent); O - 1 hour per day every 3 days/3 sessions (Medplus VPhilozon, 60 mcg/mL and oxygen flow rate of 1 L/min); and OCP - CP with O, 1 hour per day every 3 days/3 sessions. Enamel surface microhardness (Knoop), roughness (Ra), and micromorphology by scanning electron microscopy (5,000x magnificaron) were determined before and after the treatments. Results: ANOVA and Tukey-Kramer's test showed that enamel microhardness remained unchanged by treatment with O and OCP (p=0.0087), but decreased by treatment with CP. Treatment with O promoted higher enamel microhardness than the other groups (p=0.0169). Generalized linear mixed models for repeated measures over time indicated treatment with CP increased enamel roughness more than OCP or O (p=0.0003). CP produced slight irregularities in enamel micromorphology after the whitening treatment. O, with or without CP, maintained the mechanical and physical properties of microhardness and enamel surface micromorphology, and either maintained or reduced surface roughness, compared to the conventional tray-delivered CP bleaching treatment. Conclusions: Treatment with 10% carbamide peroxide in trays promoted greater changes in enamel surface properties than treatments with ozone and with 10% ozonized carbamide peroxide in the office.
RESUMO É importante avaliar as propriedades da superficie do esmalte após a aplicagao da ozonioterapia para clareamento, para garantir que o efeito clareadorproporcione condigoes adequadaspara um substrato dentário higido. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo in vitro foi avaliar os efeitos de um tratamento clareador com peróxido de carbamida (PC) a 10%, associado ou nao ao ozonio (O), na microdureza, rugosidade e micromorfologia da superficie do esmalte. Materials e Método: Blocos de esmalte bovino foram aplainados e distribuidos entre tres grupos de tratamento clareador (n=10): PC - 1 hora por dia/14 dias (Opalescence PF 10%/ Ultradent); O - 1 hora por dia a cada 3 dias/3 sessoes (Medplus VPhilozon, 60 mcg/mL e fluxo de oxigenio de 1 L/min); e PCO - CP com O, 1 hora por dia a cada 3 dias/3 sessoes. A microdureza (Knoop), a rugosidade (Ra) e a micromorfologia da superficie do esmalte avaliada por microscopia eletronica de varredura (aumento de 5.000x) foram analisadas antes e após os tratamentos. Resultados: ANOVA e teste de Tukey-Kramer mostraram que O e PCO mantiveram os valores de microdureza do esmalte ao final do tratamento (p=0,0087), enquanto PC promoveu diminuigao da microdureza. O promoveu maiores valores de microdureza do esmalte do que os outros grupos ao final do tratamento (p=0,0169). Modelos lineares generalizados mistos para medidas repetidas no tempo indicaram um aumento na rugosidade da superficie para PC, levando a maior rugosidade do esmalte ao final do tratamento, em comparagao com PCO ou O (p=0,0003). PC apresentou pequenas irregularidades na micromorfologia do esmalte após o tratamento clareador. O, com ou sem PC, manteve as propriedades mecánicas e fisicas de microdureza e micromorfologia da superficie do esmalte, e manteve ou reduziu a rugosidade da superficie, em comparagao com o tratamento clareador a base de PC aplicado em moldeira convencional. Conclusoes: O tratamento com peróxido de carbamida a 10% para uso em moldeiras promoveu maiores alteragoes nas propriedades de superficie do esmalte do que aquelas observadas nos tratamentos com ozonio e com peróxido de carbamida ozonizado a 10% para uso em consultório.

RESUMO
Abstract Natrosol and Aristoflex® AVC polymers are widely applied in the cosmetic industry and have recently been applied as a thickener option in the composition of dental bleaching gels, with the purpose to reduce the adverse effects on enamel mineral components. The aim of this study was to evaluate the color variation (ΔE* ab, ΔE00, ∆WID), surface roughness (Ra), and mineral content quantification (Raman Spectroscopy) of dental enamel after bleaching treatment with experimental gel-based on 10% carbamide peroxide (CP), containing Carbopol, Natrosol, and Aristoflex® AVC. Sixty bovine teeth were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=10): Negative Control (NC) - no treatment; Positive Control (PC) - Whiteness Perfect 10% - FGM; CP with Carbopol (CPc); CP with Natrosol (CPn); CP with Aristoflex® AVC (CPa); NCP - no thickener. Data were analyzed, and generalized linear models (∆WID -T0 x T1) were used for repeated measurements in time for Ra and with a study factor for ΔE* ab and ΔE00. For the evaluation of the mineral content, data were submitted to one-way ANOVA and Tukey tests. For enamel topographic surface analysis the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was performed. A significance level of 5% was considered. ΔE* ab and ΔE00 were significantly higher for CPc, CPn, CPa, and NCP groups. (∆WID) showed a significantly lower mean than the other groups for NC in T1. After bleaching (4-hour daily application for 14 days), Ra was higher in the CPc, CPn, and PC groups. For CPa, Ra was not altered. No significant difference was found in the quantification of mineral content. CPa preserved the surface smoothness more effectively. Aristoflex® AVC is a viable option for application as a thickener in dental bleaching gels, presenting satisfactory performance, and maintaining the whitening efficacy of the gel, with the advantage of preserving the surface roughness of tooth enamel without significant loss of mineral content.
Resumo Os polímeros Natrosol e Aristoflex® AVC são amplamente utilizados na indústria cosmética e foram recentemente aplicados como uma opção de espessante na composição de géis de clareamento dental, com o objetivo de reduzir os efeitos adversos sobre os componentes minerais do esmalte. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a variação de cor (ΔE*ab, ΔE00, ∆WID), rugosidade da superfície (Ra), e quantificação do conteúdo mineral (Raman Spectroscopy) do esmalte dentário após clareamento dental com gel experimental baseado em 10% de peróxido de carbamida (CP), contendo Carbopol, Natrosol e Aristoflex® AVC. Sessenta dentes bovinos foram divididos aleatoriamente em 6 grupos (n=10): Controle Negativo (CN) - sem tratamento; Controle Positivo (CP) - Brancura Perfeita 10% - FGM; CP com Carbopol (CPc); CP com Natrosol (CPn); CP com Aristoflex® AVC (CPa); NCP - sem espessante. Os dados foram analisados e modelos lineares generalizados (∆WID -T0 x T1) foram usados para medições repetidas no tempo para Ra e com um fator de estudo para ΔE*ab e ΔE00. Para a avaliação do conteúdo mineral, os dados foram submetidos a testes unidirecionais de ANOVA e Tukey. Para a análise da superfície topográfica do esmalte, o Microscópio Eletrônico de Varredura (SEM) foi realizado. Um nível de significância de 5% foi considerado. ΔE*ab e ΔE00 foram significativamente maiores para os grupos CPc, CPn, CPa e NCP. (∆WID) mostrou uma média significativamente menor do que os outros grupos para NC em T1. Após o clareamento (aplicação diária de 4 horas por 14 dias), Ra foi maior nos grupos CPc, CPn e PC. Para CPa, Ra não foi alterado. Nenhuma diferença significativa foi encontrada na quantificação do conteúdo mineral. O CPa preservou a suavidade da superfície de forma mais eficaz. Aristoflex® AVC é uma opção viável para aplicação como espessante em géis de clareamento dental, apresentando desempenho satisfatório e mantendo a eficácia clareadora do gel, com a vantagem de preservar a rugosidade da superfície do esmalte dentário sem perda significativa de conteúdo mineral.
RESUMO
Objective@#To study the influence of procyanidins on the bonding strength of dentin bleached by carbamide peroxide to composite resin.@*Methods @#By applying different treatments to dentin bonding interfaces, 120 human third molars were randomly divided into 12 groups (n = 10): W group (no bleaching+deionized water), Wa group (no bleaching+deionized water+aging), WT1 group (no bleaching+5% procyanidins for 1 min), WT1a group (no bleaching+5% procyanidins for 1 min+aging), WT2 group (no bleaching+5% procyanidins for 5 min), WT2a group (no bleaching+5% procyanidins for 5 min+aging), C group (carbamide peroxide+deionized water), Ca group (carbamide peroxide+deionized water+aging), CT1 group (carbamide peroxide+5% procyanidins for 1 min), CT1a group (carbamide peroxide+5% procyanidins for 1 min+aging), CT2 group (carbamide peroxide+5% procyanidins for 5 min), and CT2a group (carbamide peroxide+5% procyanidins for 5 min+aging). The bond strength to composite resin was measured by universal mechanical testing machine, microstructure and the nanoleakages were measured by scanning electron microscope immediately or after the thermal cycling aging test.@*Results@#The immediate bond strength of the bleached groups pretreated with procyanidins for 1 min (P<0.001) and 5 min (P<0.001) was higher than that of Group C, and the difference was statistically significant. Meanwhile, there was no statistically significant difference between Group CT1 and Group CT2 (P = 1.000). After the thermal cycles, the bond strength of each group declined. The differences between Group W and Group Wa (P<0.001) and Group C and Group Ca (P<0.001) were statistically significant, but no significant differences between Group CT1 and Group CT1a (P = 0.052) or Group CT2 and Group CT2a (P = 0.053) were found. The main effects of “aging” (P<0.001), “bleaching” (P<0.001) and “procyanidins” (P<0.001) and the second-order interaction effects of “bleaching * procyanidins” (P = 0.008), “bleaching * aging” (P = 0.024), and “aging * procyanidins” (P<0.001) were statistically significant. SEM observations showed that the hybrid layers in Groups C, CT1 and CT2 were not clear, and the hybrid layers in Groups Ca, CT1a and CT2a were partially destroyed and disintegrated. Under backscattering mode, it was observed that there were a large number of silver nitrate particles in the hybrid layer of Group Ca, and the residual silver ions in the hybrid layer of Groups CT1a and CT2a were decreased. @*Conclusion@# Pretreatment with 5% procyanidins for 1 min can improve the immediate bond strength of dentin bleached by carbamide peroxide to composite resin and maintain bonding durability.
RESUMO
Abstract The effectiveness of at-home dental bleaching treatments depends on the time that bleaching products are in contact with the teeth surface and, consequently, on the adequate use of associated custom acetate trays. Objective This randomized single-blinded trial aimed to analyze if the daily usage time of these products influences the patient's compliance behavior when submitted to monitored at-home dental bleaching. Secondary outcomes were color change and tooth sensitivity. Methodology Sixty-six volunteers were randomly distributed into three groups (n=22): patients were instructed to use the trays for 2 (G2), 4 (G4), and 8 (G8) hours daily. The daily dental bleaching compliance behavior was measured using a microsensor inserted into the trays. Subjective and objective color evaluation assessments were adopted at baseline (T0), one (T1), two (T2), and three weeks (T3) after the beginning of the bleaching treatment, as well as two weeks after the treatment (T4). Tooth sensitivity was analyzed using the VAS scale, ranging from T1 to T4. Results G2 showed a greater degree of cooperation than G8 and cooperation was inversely proportional to the recommended usage time. Significantly higher color change was observed in the upper arch for G8 when compared to G2 in subjective analysis, from T1 to T4. There were no statistical differences between the groups in objective analysis. Conclusion Shorter recommended usage time of the bleaching product may improve the patient's compliance with at-home dental bleaching treatments. However, increased daily usage time may promote better subjective color change. Bleaching sensitivity was more significant in the first week for a longer time of use.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to evaluate the morphological effects of bleaching with hydrogen peroxide 40 % (HP 40 %) and carbamide peroxide 20 % (CP 20 %), with and without the addition of calcium (2000 ppm), in enamel. Bovine enamel blocks (25 mm2) were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=12) accordingly to the bleaching gel (HP 40 % and CP 20 %) and the presence of calcium (with and without). Control group were immersed in artificial saliva. The treatments were carried out for 14 days. Roughness (Ra) and Knoop microhardness analysis were performed for enamel surface before and after treatment. Data were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA and Tukey test (p<0.05). The bleached group with 40 % HP had the lowest values of microhardness. There was a statistically significant difference between the initial and final readings. For surface roughness were no differences between the tested materials; but there was an increase of roughness for all groups after bleaching. It was concluded that all bleaching agents tested promoted a surface microhardness decrease after treatment, however the calcium addition promoted a slighter surface alteration, and all bleaching agents promoted a surface roughness increase after treatment.
RESUMEN: El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar los efectos morfológicos del blanqueamiento con peróxido de hidrógeno 40 % (HP 40 %) y peróxido de carbamida 20% (CP 20 %), con y sin calcio (2000 ppm), en el esmalte. Para este efecto se dividieron aleatoriamente bloques de esmalte bovino (25 mm2) en 5 grupos (n = 12) de acuerdo con el gel blanqueador (HP 40 % y CP 20 %) y la presencia de calcio (con y sin). El grupo de control se sumergió en saliva artificial. Los tratamientos se llevaron a cabo durante 14 días. Se realizaron análisis de rugosidad (Ra) y microdureza Knoop para la superficie del esmalte antes y después del tratamiento. Los datos fueron analizados mediante ANOVA de medidas repetidas y prueba de Tukey (p<0,05). El grupo blanqueado con 40 % de HP tuvo los valores más bajos de microdureza. Hubo una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre el resultado inicial y final. Para la rugosidad de la superficie no hubo diferencias entre los materiales probados; pero hubo un aumento de rugosidad en todos los grupos después del blanqueo. Se concluyó que todos los agentes blanqueadores probados promovieron una disminución de la microdureza superficial después del tratamiento, sin embargo, la adición de calcio promovió una alteración superficial más leve y todos los agentes blanqueadores promovieron un aumento de la rugosidad superficial después del tratamiento.
RESUMO
El blanqueamiento dental está considerado como pieza fundamental en el embellecimiento de los seres humanos, ya que permite la restauración de la "sonrisa perfecta". Este proceso en sí, es poco invasivo y juega como un gran papel como aliado en la restauración satisfactoria de la sonrisa y autoestima del paciente. Es un procedimiento que debe ser aplicado cuidadosamente para lograr los efectos positivos del mismo. El fundamento de esta técnica es aclarar la tonalidad que han sufrido los dientes por diversos factores: extrinsecos, intrínsecos y decoloraciones internas. Durante el procedimiento, es usual el uso de peróxido de hidrógeno (H2O2) en concentraciones que van del 10 al 32 % en volumen o el peróxido de carbamida, un compuesto conformado por peróxido de hidrógeno y urea concentraciones del 10 al 22 %. El uso de peróxido de hidrógeno se lleva a cabo fundamentalmente en los consultorios, mientras que el uso del peróxido de carbamida es un procedimiento doméstico. A pesar de los excelentes resultados que se obtiene al usar ambos blanqueadores, su uso puede ocasionar erosiones dentales y sensibilidad dentaria. El primer caso, puede llevar a la adherencia de bacterias cariogénicas como el Strepctococus mutans responsable de caries. Los resultados obtenidos, demostraron que el peróxido de hidrógeno es un agente más agresivo que el peróxido de carbamida, lo cual origina mayor sensibilidad dentaria y un mayor control bacteriano; en cambio el peróxido de carbamida fue mejor blanqueador y originó menor sensibilidad dental(AU)
Tooth whitening is considered a fundamental piece in the beautification of human beings, since it allows the restoration of the "perfect smile". This process itself is minimally invasive and plays a great role as an ally in the satisfactory restoration of the patient's smile and self-esteem. It is a procedure that must be carefully applied to achieve its positive effects. The basis of this technique is to clarify the shade that the teeth have suffered due to various factors: extrinsic, intrinsic and internal discoloration. During the procedure, the use of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in concentrations ranging from 10 to 32% by volume or carbamide peroxide, a compound made up of hydrogen peroxide and urea concentrations of 10 to 22%, is usual. The use of hydrogen peroxide is mainly carried out in offices, while the use of carbamide peroxide is a home procedure. Despite the excellent results obtained by using both whiteners, their use can cause dental erosion and tooth sensitivity. The first case can lead to the adherence of cariogenic bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans responsible for caries. The results obtained showed that hydrogen peroxide is a more aggressive agent than carbamide peroxide, which causes greater dental sensitivity and greater bacterial control; On the other hand, carbamide peroxide was a better whitener and caused less dental sensitivity(AU)

@#The application of tooth whitening technology in oral clinical diagnosis and treatment is becoming increasing widespread. Non-invasive tooth whitening based on bleaching technology has become the choice of many patients with tooth discoloration because of its unique advantage of not destroying the hard tissue of the tooth. The whitening effects differ according to the causes and degrees of tooth discoloration The effect of bleaching on tetracycline teeth is not as good as that of fluorosis teeth. The bleaching effect of hydrogen peroxide bleaching agents is similar to that of urea peroxide bleaching agents with the same concentration of hydrogen peroxide. The addition of non-peroxide agents such as bromelain to peroxide bleaching agents can improve the whitening effect on teeth. The whitening effect of a high-concentration bleaching agent can be achieved by using a low-concentration bleaching agent for a prolonged the working time. The effect of pH on tooth whitening is still controversial; the combination of lasers and traditional peroxide bleaching agents can effectively improve the whitening effect of teeth. The combination of enamel micro-grinding and peroxide tooth bleaching agents can improve the whitening effect in cases of dental fluorosis. This review analyzes the causes of tooth staining, the properties of bleaching agents, the application of laser microgrinding and the changes in tooth tissue after bleaching to discuss the influencing factors of the non-invasive tooth whitening effect mainly based on bleaching techniques.
RESUMO
@#Introduction: Human teeth tend to stain from intrinsic and extrinsic factors with time. The study was aimed to assess colour change of stained enamel after the use of bleaching agents. Methods: 63 extracted human teeth were selected and soaked in the coffee solution for 7 days to stain the teeth. Then they were randomly divided into 3 groups (n = 21). The groups were divided as the control group (distilled water), group using 6% carbamide peroxide (CP6) and group using 9% carbamide peroxide (CP9). The groups of CP6 and CP9 were bleached with 0.2 ml of bleaching agent for 5 minutes daily until 14 days. Colour changes were visually recorded by using VITA Toothguide 3D-MASTER and Ocean Optics Spectrometer instrument. Results: CP6 started to show shade reduction on Day 3 (score 5), followed by a steady reduction until Day 10. Day 12 to 14 showed another steady reduction of CP6. CP9 had a larger shade reduction (scores of 2-5) from Day 1 to Day 4, followed by a steady reduction until Day 14. Spectrometer analysis shows that CP9 samples had lower absorbance unit compared to CP6 samples for both second-day and sixth-day groups. However, most changes can be observed on the CP9 samples from control to the second-day and sixth-day. Conclusion: Bleaching agent with low concentration can approach the efficacy of high concentration of bleaching agent with an extended treatment time.
RESUMO
Abstract Objective Our study aims to compare the efficacy and tooth sensitivity following in-office (35% hydrogen peroxide) or at-home (10% carbamide peroxide) bleaching treatments both preceded by 2% potassium nitrate (2%KF) desensitizing gel. Methodology 130 volunteers were randomly allocated to a) in-office bleaching and a placebo at-home protocol; or b) in-office placebo and at-home bleaching treatment. 2% KF was applied for 10 min before both treatments. Objective color evaluation was performed (spectrophotometer CIEL*a*b* system and CIEDE2000) to calculate the color change (ΔE00). Subjective evaluation was performed using the VITA classical shade guide followed by shade variation (ΔSGU) at the beginning and end of bleaching treatment and 2 weeks post-bleaching. Tooth sensitivity was daily recorded using a Likert scale varying from 1 (no sensitivity) to 5 (severe sensitivity). Analysis was carried out using non-parametric tests. Results Regarding the color change, at-home bleaching resulted in significant color improvement compared to in-office treatment for the parameters Δb* (p=0.003) and Δa* (p=0.014). Two weeks post-bleaching, the at-home treatment resulted in significant color improvement compared to in-office treatment for the parameters Δb* (p=0.037) and ΔE00 (p=0.033). No differences were observed in either ΔSGU parameters. Concerning sensitivity, patients treated with in-office bleaching reported more tooth sensitivity than the at-home group only on the first day after bleaching started, without significant differences in the other periods evaluated (p>0.05). Conclusions At-home and in-office bleaching, preceded by a desensitizing agent, were effective for vital teeth bleaching and 10% carbamide peroxide produced a higher whitening effect than 35% hydrogen peroxide in the short time evaluation. Tooth sensitivity rates were similar for the two techniques tested.

ABSTRACT Tooth bleaching is one of the most conservative aesthetic techniques. At-home and in-office bleaching may be performed, as well as the combination of both techniques. As this combination may be done in different manners, distinct orders of combinations were proposed in this report. A 24 years-old man, whose upper central incisor and canine shades were A2 and A3 respectively, was initially treated by chair-side with 40-min application of 40% hydrogen peroxide (HP) for two sessions. Afterwards, an two-week overnight at-home bleaching was performed with 10% carbamide peroxide (CP). The shade of upper central incisors changed to 1M1 and canine was B1. Conversely, a 30 years-old woman was firstly conducted with at-home bleaching (overnight 4-weeks 10% CP) and, subsequently, with a single appointment of in-office bleaching for 45 minutes (35% HP). The shade of her upper central incisor changed from A1 to 0.5M1 and the upper canine from A3 to B1. The VITA classical (A1-D4) shade guide and VITA Bleached guide 3D-MASTER were used to determine the tooth color during the treatments. In both bleaching treatments, patients reported no significant tooth sensitivity and the final outcomes met their expectation.
RESUMO O clareamento dental é uma das técnicas estéticas mais conservadoras no âmbito odontológico. Técnicas de clareamento caseira ou de consultório, ou a combinação de ambas, podem ser realizadas para alcançar o prognóstico desejado. Esta combinação das técnicas pode ser realizada por meio de diferentes abordagens, como apresentado neste relato de casos. Um paciente do gênero masculino, 24 anos de idade, cujos incisivo central superior e caninos apresentaram cor A2 e A3, respectivamente, foi inicialmente submetido à técnica de clareamento de consultório de duração por sessão de 40 mim com gel de peróxido de hidrogênio (PH) 40%, em duas sessões. Posteriormente, a técnica de clareamento caseira foi realizada durante duas semanas com gel de peróxido de carbamida (PC) a uma concentração de 10%.A cor final dos incisivos centrais superiores foi alterada para 1M1, enquanto a dos caninos para B1. Por outro lado, uma paciente do gênero feminino, 30 anos de idade, foi inicialmente submetida ao clareamento caseiro (durante a noite, por 4 semanas- PC 10%), e subsequentemente, com aplicação pontual de agente clareador (PH 35%) em consultório, em sessão de 45 min. A cor do incisivo central superior da paciente, mudou de A1 para 0,5M1 e do canino superior de A3 para B1. As escalas de cor VITA Classic (A1-D4), e VITA Bleachedguided 3D-MASTER foram utilizadas nesta série de casos para determinar a coloração dos dentes durante os tratamentos. Em ambos os tratamentos, os pacientes não reportaram sensibilidade dental significante, e suas expectativas finais foram atendidas.
RESUMO
RESUMEN Introducción: El blanqueamiento intracoronal es una alternativa mínimamente invasiva que permite devolver el color a dientes no vitales tincionados. La estabilidad del color logrado es fundamental para evaluar la predictibilidad de este tipo de tratamiento. Objetivo: Evaluar la estabilidad del color 3 años después del blanqueamiento intracameral con peróxido de hidrógeno y carbamida a diferentes concentraciones. Métodos: Se utilizaron 44 premolares extraídos por indicación ortodóncica, los cuales fueron tratados endodónticamente y pigmentados artificialmente con cromógenos sanguíneos. Las muestras fueron divididas aleatoriamente en 4 grupos de estudio (n = 11) siendo: grupo A: peróxido de carbamida 37 por ciento, grupo B: peróxido de hidrógeno 35 por ciento, grupo C: peróxido de carbamida 100 por ciento y grupo D: control; para luego realizar 4 aplicaciones de agente blanqueador con un intervalo de 4 días entre cada aplicación. El registro del color se realizó mediante espectrofotometría, lo que permitió obtener los valores CIE L*a*b* para calcular la variación total de color entre los parámetros iniciales y finales del tratamiento, así como el control a los 3 años. Resultados: Los resultados fueron analizados mediante las pruebas de Shapiro-Wilks, ANOVA y Mann-Whitney, sin registrar diferencias significativas en la variación total de color al control de los 3 años (p > 0,05). Conclusión: Los resultados del blanqueamiento intracoronal, independiente del tipo y concentración del agente utilizado en este estudio son estables en el tiempo y cualquier variación regresiva de color debe ser atribuida a factores extrínsecos(AU)
ABSTRACT Introduction: Intracoronal whitening is a minimally invasive procedure to restore natural color to stained non-vital teeth. The color stability achieved is fundamental to evaluate the predictability of this type of treatment. Objective: Evaluate color stability 3 years after intracameral whitening with carbamide and hydrogen peroxide at various concentrations. Methods: A total 44 premolars were used which had been extracted by orthodontic indication. The premolars were treated endodontically and artificially pigmented with blood chromogenes. The samples were randomly divided into 4 study groups (n = 11): Group A: 37 percent carbamide peroxide, Group B: 35 percent hydrogen peroxide, Group C: 100 percent carbamide peroxide and Group D: control. Four applications were then made of the whitening agent with a 4-days' separation between them. Color was recorded by spectrophotometry, obtaining the values CIE L*a*b* to estimate total color variation between the initial and final parameters of the treatment, as well as control at 3 years. Results: The results were analyzed with Shapiro-Wilk, ANOVA and Mann-Whitney tests, not finding any significant differences in total color variation with respect to the 3 years' control (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The results of the intracoronal whitening studied are stable throughout time, regardless of the type and concentration of the agent used, and any regressive color variation should be attributed to extrinsic factors(AU)

Objetivo: El objetivo de este informe es presentar tres casos clínicos de piezas dentarias anterosuperiores calcificadas y con decoloración, resueltos según tres protocolos clínicos de blanqueamiento diferentes, con un mismo fin: devolver la estética al sector anterior. Casos clínicos: Cada una de las tres situaciones clínicas de decoloración dentaria se trató siguiendo un protocolo diferente. A partir del análisis clínico y radiográfico, se estableció un diagnóstico y un plan de tratamiento acorde. Todos los casos evolucionaron de manera favorable y siguen siendo controlados periódicamente. Conclusiones: En casos clínicos como los que se muestran en este trabajo, en los que el conducto y la cámara pulpar están calcificados u obliterados totalmente, sería posible realizar blanqueamiento interno y externo para recuperar la armonía óptica de forma conservadora. Este tipo de tratamientos permitiría responder a la alta prevalencia de demanda estética debido a traumatismos y cambios de coloración (AU)
Aim: To present three clinical cases of discoloration in calcified upper anterior teeth, that were resolved following different clinical protocols for teeth whitening to return the aesthetics of the anterior teeth. Clinical cases: Each clinical case of discoloration was treated following a different treatment protocol based on a correct clinical and radiographic diagnosis. All cases had a favourable outcome and have no regular review. Conclusion: In clinical cases as those presented in this article where the canal and pulp chamber are totally calcified or obliterated, it was possible to perform internal and or external whitening to restore optical harmony in a conservative way. This type of treatment would allow responding to the high prevalence of aesthetic demand due to trauma and colour changes (AU)

Introdução: A pigmentação dentária é causada por diversos fatores que acarretam prejuízos na estética e autoestima do paciente. A busca por um sorriso esteticamente perfeito acarretou maior demanda por procedimentos clareadores em que diferentes técnicas, tipos e concentrações de agentes clareadores podem ser utilizados na obtenção de um tratamento eficaz. Objetivo: Verificar, através de uma revisão da literatura, a eficácia, as limitações e os efeitos colaterais relacionados aos diferentes protocolos de clareamento dental caseiro. Metodologia: Foi realizada uma revisão da literatura por meio de buscas nas bases de dados PubMed/MEDLINE, LILACS, SciELO e Google Acadêmico, utilizando os seguintes descritores: "tooth bleaching" OR "supervised tooth bleaching" AND "clinical protocol". Apenas estudos experimentais, publicados nos últimos cinco anos, foram incluídos e não houve restrição quanto ao idioma. Resultados: O peróxido de hidrogênio (PH) e o peróxido de carbamida (PC) são eficazes quando administrados em concentrações de 4% a 16% com aplicações diárias que podem variar de 7 a 14 dias. O tempo de aplicação do PH é de 1 a 4 horas e do PC é de 4 a 8 horas. Géis com menores concentrações provocam menos sensibilidade dentária e irritação gengival, porém, o tempo de tratamento é geralmente prolongado. Conclusão: Para um tratamento eficaz, é indispensável um diagnóstico correto, já que o tipo de pigmento influencia sobremaneira no protocolo a ser empregado. Portanto, é fundamental conhecer a etiologia da mancha para assim estabelecer o tipo do gel, a sua concentração, o tempo e o modo de aplicação adequados.
Introduction: Dental pigmentation is caused by several factors that affect the patient's aesthetics and self-esteem. The search for an aesthetically perfect smile has led to a greater demand for bleaching procedures, in which different techniques, types, and concentrations of bleaching agents can be used to do an effective treatment. Objective: to verify, through a literature review, the application, permission, and effects related to different home tooth whitening protocols. Methodology: A literature review was carried out by searching the PubMed/MEDLINE, LILACS, SciELO, and Google Scholar databases, using the following descriptors: "tooth whitening" OR "supervised tooth whitening" AND "clinical protocol". Only experimental studies, which were published in the last five years, were included. There were no language restrictions. Results: Hydrogen peroxide (PH) and carbamide peroxide (PC) are efficient when administered in 4% to 16% with applications that can vary from 7 to 14 days. The PH application time is 1 to 4 hours and the PC is 4 to 8 hours. Gels with smaller concentrations cause less tooth sensitivity and gingival irritation; however, the treatment time is usually prolonged. Conclusion: A correct diagnosis is indispensable for an effective treatment since the type of pigment greatly affects the protocol to be used. Therefore, it is essential to know the etiology of the stain to define the type of gel, its concentration, time, and method of application.

Abstract Titanium dioxide nanotubes are nanostructures that can accelerate the oxidation reaction of bleaching procedures and promote a more effective whitening effect. Objective This study evaluated physicochemical properties of bleaching agents incorporated with titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes, and the effects on tooth color change at different periods. Methodology 40 premolars were treated according to the following groups (n=10): CP - 10% carbamide peroxide (1 hour daily/21 days); CPN - CP incorporated into TiO2; HP - 40% hydrogen peroxide (three 40-minute sessions/7 days apart); HPN - HP incorporated into TiO2. Color shade was evaluated at five different periods (baseline, after 7, 14 and 21 days of bleaching, and 7 days after end of treatment) according to Vita Classical, CIELab and CIEDE2000 scales. Mean particle size (P), polydispersity (PO) and zeta potential (ZP) were evaluated using dynamic light scattering. Data on the different variables were analyzed by mixed model tests for measures repeated in time (ZP e L*), generalized linear models for measures repeated in time (P, PO, Vita Classical and b*), and Friedman and Mann-Whitney tests (a* and color change/ΔE and ΔE00). Results CP and CPN presented higher P, higher PO and lower ZP than HP and HPN (p≤0.05). All groups showed a significant decrease in Vita Classical color scores after 7 days of bleaching (p<0.05), and HPN presented a greater significant reduction than the other groups. L* increased in TiO2 presence, in all groups, without any differences (p>0.05) in bleaching time. A significant reduction occurred in the a* and b* values for all the groups, and HPN presented lower a* and b* values (p<0.05) than CPN. ΔE was clinically noticeable after 7 days, in all groups, and all groups resulted in a perceptible color change according to ΔE00. Conclusion TiO2 did not influence physicochemical properties of the bleaching agents. HPN presented more effective tooth bleaching than CPN.

Abstract Objective This study evaluated the clinical effect of violet LED light on in-office bleaching used alone or combined with 37% carbamide peroxide (CP) or 35% hydrogen peroxide (HP). Methodology A total of 100 patients were divided into five groups (n=20): LED, LED/CP, CP, LED/HP and HP. Colorimetric evaluation was performed using a spectrophotometer (ΔE, ΔL, Δa, Δb) and a visual shade guide (ΔSGU). Calcium (Ca)/phosphorous (P) ratio was quantified in the enamel microbiopsies. Measurements were performed at baseline (T 0 ), after bleaching (T B ) and in the 14-day follow-up (T 14 ). At each bleaching session, a visual scale determined the absolute risk (AR) and intensity of tooth sensitivity (TS). Data were evaluated by one-way (ΔE, Δa, ΔL, Δb), two-way repeated measures ANOVA (Ca/P ratio), and Tukey post-hoc tests. ΔSGU and TS were evaluated by Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney, and AR by Chi-Squared tests (a=5%). Results LED produced the lowest ΔE (p<0.05), but LED/HP promoted greater ΔE, ΔSGU and Δb (T 14 ) than HP (p<0.05). No differences were observed in ΔE and ΔSGU for LED/CP and HP groups (p>0.05). ΔL and Δa were not influenced by LED activation. After bleaching, LED/CP exhibited greater Δb than CP (p>0.05), but no differences were found between these groups at T 14 (p>0.05). LED treatment promoted the lowest risk of TS (16%), while HP promoted the highest (94.4%) (p<0.05). No statistical differences of risk of TS were found for CP (44%), LED/CP (61%) and LED/HP (88%) groups (p>0.05). No differences were found in enamel Ca/P ratio among treatments, regardless of evaluation times. Conclusions Violet LED alone produced the lowest bleaching effect, but enhanced HP bleaching results. Patients treated with LED/CP reached the same efficacy of HP, with reduced risk and intensity of tooth sensitivity and none of the bleaching protocols adversely affected enamel mineral content.

Abstract Objectives This randomized, split-mouth, single-blinded trial assessed whether the use of reservoirs in at-home bleaching trays is equivalent to non-reservoir trays. Our choice of an equivalence trial was based on the expectation that a non-reservoir tray is sufficient to produce a color change. Secondary outcomes such as tooth sensitivity (TS) and gingival irritation (GI) were also assessed. Methodology Forty-six patients were selected with canines shade A2 or darker. In half of the patient's arch, bleaching trays were made with reservoirs and the other half, without reservoirs. At-home bleaching was performed with carbamide peroxide (CP) 10% (3 h daily; 21 days). Color change was evaluated with a digital spectrophotometer (ΔE, ΔE00, and Whiteness Index) and shade guide units (ΔSGU) at baseline, during and one-month post-bleaching. TS and GI were assessed with a numeric scale (NRS) and a visual analog scale (VAS). Results After one month, the equivalence of reservoir and non-reservoir groups were observed in all color instruments (p>0.05). Fifteen and sixteen patients presented pain (absolute risk: 33% and 35%, 95%, confidence interval (CI) 21-46% and 23-49%) in the reservoir and non-reservoir side, respectively. The odds ratio for pain was 0.8 (95%CI 0.2-3.0) and the p-value was non-significant (p=1.0). TS intensity was similar between both groups in any of the pain scales (p>0.05). No difference in the GI was observed (p>0.05). Conclusions The protocol with reservoirs is equivalent in color change to the non-reservoir, although no superiority of the latter was observed in terms of reduced TS and GI with at-home 10% carbamide peroxide bleaching. Clinical Relevance The presence of reservoirs in a bleaching tray did not improve color change or affect tooth sensitivity and gingival irritation.

Resultados: O agente clareador se mostrou altamente citotóxico nas concentrações de IC50 = 0,4mM. Além disso, foi observada alteração significativa no hemograma em relação à contagem de eritrócitos, no volume corpuscular médio, concentração de hemoglobina, contagem dos neutrófilos segmentados e número de linfócitos. Em relação às enzimas, na contagem de ureia, foram observadas alterações estatisticamente significativas entre o grupo controle e os grupos testes 1 e 2 (p=0.0000). Para a contagem de fosfatase alcalina, no vigésimo dia, foram encontrados resultados com diferença estatística entre o grupo controle e os grupos testes 2, 3, 4, e 5 (p=0.0009). Além disso, mudanças morfológicas no fígado e rim também foram observadas. Conclusão: O peróxido de carbamida, nas diferentes concentrações estudadas, determinou alterações sistêmicas significativas, demonstrando a importância de cautela no uso deste medicamento na Odontologia, a fim de evitar danos irreversíveis para a saúde do paciente.
Objectives: To evaluate the cellular cytotoxicity effects of carbamide peroxide at different concentrations in a hamster cell line in an in vitro study and its systemic effects in an in vivo assay. Methods: Cell cytotoxicity assay by cellular viability analysis and histochemical evaluation of kidney and liver morphology were performed comparing the control group and test groups, which were characterized by the ingestion of carbamide peroxide in the water supply at different concentrations: 1.9mg/ml 1), 0.95mg/ml (test 2), 0.71mg/ml (test 3), 0.47mg/ml (test 4) and 0.24mg/ml (test 5) for a period of 40 days. Results: The bleaching agent was cytotoxic at concentrations of IC50 = 0.4mM. In addition, a significant alteration of the blood count was observed in erythrocyte count, mean corpuscular volume, hemoglobin concentration, segmented neutrophil count and lymphocyte count. Regarding the enzymes, urea counts showed statistically significant changes between the control group and test groups 1 and 2 (Tukey index = 5.34, p = 0.0000) and alkaline phosphatase counts between the control group and the test groups 2, 3, 4, and 5 (Tukey's index = 10.72, p = 0.0009). Changes in liver and kidney morphology were also observed. Conclusion: Carbamide peroxide in the different concentrations studied can provide significant systemic alterations, demonstrating the importance of using this drug with caution in dentistry, in order to avoid irreversible damage to the patient.
RESUMO
RESUMEN: El objetivo del presente trabajo fue comparar espectrofotométricamente el número de sesiones para un cambio efectivo de coloración con peróxido de carbamida al 100 %, 37 % y peróxido de hidrógeno al 35 %, a través de la técnica Walking Bleach. Este fue un estudio experimental, in vitro, en paralelo, con ciego en la medición del efecto y en el análisis de datos. Se utilizaron 88 premolares extraídos por indicación ortodóncica. Estos fueron tratados endodónticamente y artificialmente pigmentados con cromógenos derivados de productos de descomposición de la sangre. Se dividieron aleatoriamente en 4 grupos de 22 dientes (un grupo por cada agente blanqueador, más un grupo control con agua destilada). El régimen de tratamiento para cada grupo fue de 4 sesiones existiendo una separación de 4 días entre cada una. El registro de color previo (baseline) y posterior a cada aplicación fue realizado mediante el espectrofotómetro dental Vita Easyshade V, con el cual se registraron los colores en espacio de color CIE L*a*b*. Se calcularon posteriormente los valores de la variación total de color (DE) entre los parámetros iniciales y los distintos tiempos de evaluación. El análisis de significancia se realizó mediante la prueba Kruskal-Wallis y para comparar las diferencias se usó el test de comparaciones múltiples por pares mediante el procedimiento de Steel-Dwass-Critchlow-Fligner, registrando diferencias estadísticamente significativas en la variación total del color desde la primera sesión de blanqueamiento. En conclusión, utilizando peróxido de carbamida al 100 %, la técnica Walking Bleach no requiere un menor número de sesiones para un cambio efectivo de coloración al compararlo con peróxido de hidrógeno al 35 %, pero si con relación al peróxido de carbamida al 37 %, donde el objetivo se consigue en un menor número de sesiones.
ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to spectrophotometrically compare the number of sessions for an effective color change using 100 % and 37 % carbamide peroxide, and 35 % hydrogen peroxide, applying the Walking Bleach technique. This was an experimental study, performed in vitro, in parallel, and was a blind study in relation to the measurement of the effect and the analysis of data. 88 premolars extracted by orthodontics indications were used. These were endodontically treated and artificially pigmented with chromogens derived from blood decomposition products. They were randomly divided into 4 groups of 22 teeth (one group for each whitening agent, plus a control group with distilled water). The treatment regime for each group was 4 sessions, with a separation of 4 days between each session. The registration of color before (baseline) and after each application was done using the dental spectrophotometer Vita Easyshade V, with which the colors were registered in the CIE L*a*b* color space. The values of total color variation (DE) were later calculated between the initial parameters and the different stages of evaluation. Significance testing was undertaken using Kruskal-Wallis and to compare the differences the method used was Steel-Dwass-Critchlow- Fligner, registering significant statistical differences in the total color variation from the first bleaching session. In conclusion, using 100 % carbamide peroxide, the Walking Bleach technique does not require fewer sessions for an effective change in coloration when compared to 35 % hydrogen peroxide, however, it does using 37 % carbamide peroxide, where the result is achieved in a lower number of sessions.
