    Objectives: The purpose was to evaluate the effect of various Opalescence tooth-whitening products on enamel. Methods and Materials: Enamel blocks were exposed to Opalescence PF 10% Carbamide Peroxide (n=10), Opalescence PF 20% Carbamide Peroxide (n=10), Opalescence Treswhite Supreme 10% Hydrogen Peroxide (n=10) and Opalescence Quick PF 45% Carbamide Peroxide (n=10) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The control group was enamel blocks (n=10) kept in artificial saliva. The values were obtained before exposure and after the 14-days treatment period. Enamel blocks were kept in saliva between treatments. Indent marks on enamel blocks were examined using the scanning electron microscope for treatment effects. Results: All four different Opalescence products damaged enamel. The most damage was done when treated for a long period (112 hours). SEM images also showed damage to enamel by all 4 products. Opalescence with 10% and with 20% Carbamide Peroxide showed the highest damage, which also differed significantly (p<0.05) from the saliva control group (pl0.05; Tukey-Kramer Multiple comparison test). Conclusion: All 4 Opalescence products damaged enamel. Higher damage was done by the 10% carbamide peroxide and 20% carbamide peroxide products because of the much longer exposure period (112 hours in comparison to 7 hours).

    The effect of two bleaching materials on dental enamel was studied by vibrational spectroscopy. Human molar enamel sections parallel to the dentin-enamel junction were one-side polished and treated with bleaching agents containing 38% hydrogen peroxide (Opalescence Xtra Boost) or 20% carbamide peroxide (Opalescence PF 20%). Then the crystalline structure and molecular inclusions of the bleached samples were analyzed by Raman scattering and attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy. No spectral difference was observed between the unbleached enamel and that bleached with the two different agents, which indicates no significant occurrence of structural or chemical changes in enamel apatite due to bleaching.

    ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate whether two different bleaching gels affect the microhardness and surface roughness of feldspathic ceramic specimens, in vitro. Methods: A total of 48 feldspathic porcelain IPS In Line (Ivoclar-Vivadent) discs (16/treatment group) were immersed in distilled water (Group I, Untreated control, UN), or treated with the bleaching gels: Opalescence (15% carbamide peroxide; OPA) and Opalescence Xtra Boost (38%hydrogen peroxide; OPAXB), for 1h or 6h daily for 14 days. Surface roughness (Ra) and microhardness (Knoop, or KNP) measurements were made before and after treatment, and data were subjected to statistical analysis by paired Student’s t-test (p < 0.05). Results: Treatments using Opalescence and Opalescence Xtra Boost did not altered surface roughness (p=0.6199861) or microhardness (p=0.14286744) of the feldspathic porcelain tested in this study. Conclusion: Bleaching treatments using Opalescence and Opalescence Xtra Boost may be suitable for treatment in patients having ceramic prosthodontic treatment. Conclusion: Bleaching treatments using Opalescence and Opalescence Xtra Boost may be suitable for treatment in patients having ceramic prosthodontic treatment.
