This study evaluated the efficacy of simulated brushing with toothpastes containing different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (HP) in pulp chamber penetration and color change. Also, physical-chemical properties (concentration, pH and viscosity) were evaluated.
Forty-nine premolars were divided into seven groups (n = 7): untreated (control); whitening gel (White Class 6 %, 6 %BG) with one 90 min application (6 %BG 90 min) and 14 applications of 90 min (6 %BG 14×90 min); toothpastes (Colgate Luminous White Glow 3 %, 3 %TP; Crest 3D White Brilliance 4 %, 4 %TP; Colgate Optic White Pro-Series 5 %, 5 %TP) and 6 %BG toothbrushing for 14 applications of 90 s. HP penetration into the pulp chamber was measured through UV-Vis spectrophotometry and color change with a spectrophotometer (ΔE, ΔE, and ΔWI). Initial concentration, pH, and viscosity were measured through Titration, Digital pH-meter, and Rheometer, respectively. Statistical analysis used one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05).
6 %BG (14×90 min) and 4 %TP groups showed acidic pH and higher concentrations of HP in the pulp chamber compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). On the other side, 3 %TP and 5 %TP groups showed alkaline pH, higher viscosity between the toothpastes and lower HP penetration (p < 0.05). The 6 %BG AH (14×90 min) group exhibited the most significant color change (ΔE, ΔE, and ΔWI) (p < 0.05).
Brushing with whitening toothpaste with an acidic pH leads to greater HP penetration into pulp chamber; but, even when a high concentrated HP whitening toothpaste was used, a lower whitening effect was observed when compared to a two-week at-home bleaching.
Whitening toothpastes containing up to 5 % HP produced lower whitening effect than two-week at-home bleaching. Additionally, HP was detected within the pulp chamber which can potentially impact in tooth sensitivity.
本研究评估了含不同浓度过氧化氢(HP)的牙膏模拟刷牙对牙髓腔内渗透和颜色变化的疗效。同时,还评估了物理化学性质(浓度、pH 值和粘度)。
将 49 颗前磨牙分为 7 组(n=7):未处理(对照);使用一次 90 分钟的美白凝胶(White Class 6%,6%BG)(6%BG 90 分钟)和 14 次 90 分钟应用(6%BG 14×90 分钟);牙膏(高露洁亮白净光 3%,3%TP;佳洁士 3D 美白炫亮 4%,4%TP;高露洁 Optic White Pro-Series 5%,5%TP)和 6%BG 牙刷刷牙 14 次,每次 90 秒。通过紫外可见分光光度法测量 HP 对牙髓腔的渗透,通过分光光度计测量颜色变化(ΔE、ΔE 和 ΔWI)。通过滴定、数字 pH 计和流变仪分别测量初始浓度、pH 值和粘度。采用单因素方差分析和 Tukey 检验(α=0.05)进行统计学分析。
与其他组相比,6%BG(14×90 分钟)和 4%TP 组的牙髓腔内显示出酸性 pH 值和更高浓度的 HP(p<0.05)。另一方面,3%TP 和 5%TP 组的 pH 值呈碱性,牙膏之间的粘度较高,HP 渗透较低(p<0.05)。6%BG AH(14×90 分钟)组显示出最显著的颜色变化(ΔE、ΔE 和 ΔWI)(p<0.05)。
用酸性 pH 值的美白牙膏刷牙会导致更多的 HP 渗透到牙髓腔内;但是,即使使用高浓度 HP 美白牙膏,与两周的家庭漂白相比,美白效果也较低。
含高达 5%HP 的美白牙膏的美白效果低于两周的家庭漂白。此外,在牙髓腔内检测到 HP,这可能会对牙齿敏感性产生影响。
