摘要

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of incorporating different concentrations (0, 1, and 5%) of titanium dioxide nanotubes (TiO2) into a 37% carbamide peroxide (CP) bleaching agent with or without activation by violet LED light (L) on tooth color change. Eighty bovine incisors were separated into eight groups (n = 10) according to the concentration of TiO2 incorporated into CP, and L activation: HP (hydrogen peroxide 35%), CP, CPT1 (CP + 1% TiO2), CPT5 (CP + 5% TiO2), HPL, CPL, CPT1L, and CPT5L. The bleaching agents were applied for 30 min (3 sessions). When L was associated, it was applied in 20 cycles of 60 s with a 30 s interval. Color analysis was performed at baseline, and 7 days after the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd sessions (CIEL*a*b* and ΔEab, ΔE00, and WID). All the groups showed a significant increase in L* and a significant decrease in b* compared with the baseline (p < 0.05), but there were no significant differences within each group (p > 0.05). After the 2nd session, CPT1L and CPT5L showed greater variation in color change (ΔEab, ΔE00, and ∆WID) (p < 0.05) compared with the respective groups without L. L activation was a determining factor for greater bleaching efficacy in the 2nd session, when CP was incorporated into TiO2 in both concentrations (1% or 5%). TiO2 association suggests increased effectiveness in color change when L is applied in the 2nd bleaching session, and may lead to less pulp damage when associated with a lower bleaching agent concentration.
