Abstract

Most bleaching products used in dentistry are based on the direct use of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or its precursor, carbamide peroxide. Tooth whitening is a very complex process that depends on several factors including the pH of the bleaching agent, the method of application and thickness of the bleaching agent to the enamel, the fluctuation of irradiation, length of photoactivation, tooth size, selective absorption of the wavelength of irradiation and so on. Two techniques of tooth whitening have been described – ambulatory (at home) and in-office (by a professional).
