Vital Tooth Bleaching Using Locally Prepared Hydrogen Peroxide Gel: A Case Report
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Discoloration of the front teeth decreases patient’s self esteem. Desire for sparkling white smile has stimulated the search for effective treatments in the field of dentistry. Among these, most common procedure is dental bleaching. It offers a conservative, simplified, and low cost approach for changing dental color. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an important agent used in bleaching procedure. H2O2 releases free radicals which penetrate into tooth structure causes oxidation of chromophore molecules, by means of redox reaction. The pigments oxidation is responsible for tooth bleaching. This case report reflects the remarkable change of tooth color by in-office bleaching using locally prepared hydrogen peroxide gel.
