Background: Home bleaching is a promising option for addressing discolored teeth conservatively. However, its impact on the physical and mechanical properties of indirect restorations remains unknown. This study provides comparative insights into the material responses to aesthetic treatments by assessing the effects of home bleaching agents on two hybrid ceramics: VITA ENAMIC and Grandio Blocs.

As marine heatwaves and mass coral bleaching events rise in frequency and severity, there is an increasing need for high-resolution satellite products that accurately predict reef thermal environments over large spatio-temporal scales. Deciding which global sea surface temperature (SST) dataset to use for research or management depends in part on the desired spatial resolution. Here, we evaluate two SST datasets - the lower-resolution CoralTemp v3.

Methods: A total of 120 healthy adults, with teeth shade A2 or darker, were randomly allocated to 3 groups (n = 40). All participants used 10% CP gel in a bleaching tray for 2, 4, and 8 hours daily for 14 days, with the option to extend treatment if they were dissatisfied.

Introduction: Green tea is a medicinal beverage extracted from the plant Camellia sinensis. Antioxidants that exist naturally can be extracted as pure compounds from their parent materials for nutraceutical and medicinal applications. The present study aims to assess the antioxidant activity of Zinc oxide-titanium dioxide nano-composites (ZnO-TiO2 NCs) containing green tea extract.
