Abstract:
This article reviews the efficacy of a new 6.5% hydrogen peroxide tooth-whitening gel strip for bleaching teeth that have been intrinsically stained from tetracycline. Given the severity of staining in the cases presented during a recently conducted clinical trial, the resulting efficacy is dramatic. Additionally, the continuous use of these strips for 30 minutes per day, twice daily for 2 months with no meaningful adverse effects is noteworthy.
