Article Abstract
Objectives: The development of new bleaching agents with minimum concentration of hydrogen peroxide (HP), without adverse effects, and with bleaching effectiveness, has great clinical relevance. The aim of this study was to evaluate the bleaching efficacy and cytotoxicity of a new niobium-based bleaching gel, compared to already available HP-based gels.
Materials And Methods: For the bleaching efficacy analysis, 40 bovine incisors were randomly divided into 4 groups according to the established bleaching protocol: control, untreated; 35HP, 35% HP bleaching gel; 6HP, 6% HP bleaching gel; NbHP, niobium gel associated with 3% HP gel. The color variation was measured in a spectrophotometer and the values of ΔL, Δa, Δb, and ΔE obtained. For the cell viability assay by MTT, MC3T3 cells were exposed to bleaching gel extracts (1:500, 1:250, 1:125 dilutions; immediately and 24 h). Statistical tests were performed (P < 0.05).
Results: The color alteration for all bleaching gels was significant compared to control (P < 0.05), but the NbHP gel showed a significant ΔE than other gels, with expressive color alteration at 14 days (P < 0.05). The 35HP showed high cytotoxicity regarding control and the most groups in all periods and extracts analyzed (P < 0.05), while the NbHP showed greater cell viability than control in the immediate period, dilution of the 1:500 and superior to 6HP in the most extracts at 24 h.
Conclusion: The new experimental niobium-based gel has bleaching efficacy similar to that of gels with a high concentration of HP, and it has high cytocompatibility.
Clinical Relevance: The use of this new generation of niobium-based whitening gel associated with a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide represents the possibility of a tooth whitening with lower dentin sensitivity.

Objective: To investigate the effect of reducing exposure time to at-home bleaching gel on color change and tooth sensitivity.
Materials And Methods: The search was carried out using PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE, LILACS, Cochrane. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) were included involving adult patients who have never undergone bleaching treatment before (P), subjected to bleaching with a reduced exposure time to the at-home bleaching agent (I) compared to those who used it for the time indicated by the manufacturer (C), to evaluate the effects on color change and tooth sensitivity (O).

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of an immune-boosting beverage with Sambucus nigra (SAM), an energy beverage (ENE), an in-office bleaching agent with a novel composition, and a fine-grain professional dental prophylaxis (PDP) paste on the surface roughness (Ra) and microhardness (MH) of CAD/CAM restorative materials over time.
Methods: Feldspathic ceramic (FC) and polymer infiltrated ceramic network (PICN) specimens were prepared (N = 126). Glazing, polishing, bleaching and immersion in beverages groups were formed.

Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility of using a 3D model with human dental pulp cells (HDPCs) to compare bleaching therapies and assess whether coating enamel with a nanofiber scaffold (NS) and polymeric catalyst primer (PCP), combined with violet LED (LEDv) irradiation, enhances bleaching efficacy (BE) and reduces cytotoxicity (CT).
Materials And Methods: After using NS + PCP to cover enamel of enamel/dentin discs adapted to artificial pulp chambers containing 3D culture with HDPCs, a bleaching gel with 35%HO was applied and then irradiated with LEDv. The following groups were established (n = 8): NC - no treatment; PC- 35%HO for 45 min, and EXP: NS + PCP + 35%HO + LEDv for 15 min.

Objective: This randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the bleaching efficacy and tooth sensitivity (TS) of participants submitted to different application protocols of in-office bleaching with violet light using 6 % hydrogen peroxide (HP) nanoparticulate photocatalyst gel.
Materials And Methods: Sixty-six participants were randomized and bleached using either a 6 % HP (Nano White, DMC), and/or violet light (Bright Max Whitening, MMOptics), according to the following protocols: 1) only violet light (VIOL); 2) only bleaching gel application (BG) and; 3) combined bleaching gel application + violet light (BG+VIOL). The bleaching efficacy was evaluated with the Vita Easyshade spectrophotometer, Vita Classical and Vita Bleachedguide scales.

This study assessed the hydrogen peroxide (HP) diffusion into the pulp chamber, bleaching efficacy (BE), surface roughness (Ra), and Knoop microhardness (KHN) of an experimental bleaching gel containing a hydroxyapatite-capsaicin composite (HAp-CAP). Human premolars were randomly assigned to three groups (n = 9) based on the dental bleaching gel used (50 min; one session): only 35% HP, 35% HP + HAp-CAP, and not exposed to bleaching (negative control; NC). HP diffusion (µg/mL) into the pulp chamber was assessed using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, and BE (ΔE, ΔE, and WI) was evaluated using a digital spectrophotometer.
