Effects of Two In-Office Bleaching Agents with Different Compositions on the Bond Strength to Enamel
Abstract:
This study evaluates the effect of two in-office bleaching agents with different compositions on the bond strength to enamel surface. Fifty bovine teeth were divided into five groups (n = 10 teeth per group), according to the bleaching agent used and the time elapsed to perform the restorative procedures: restorative procedures performed without bleaching (control group); bleaching with 35% hydrogen peroxide (HP), with restorative procedures 24 hours or 7 days after bleaching (HP/24h and HP/7d groups, respectively); and bleaching with 35% HP with calcium compost, with restorative procedures 24 hours or 7 days after bleaching (HP AutoMixx/24h and HP AutoMixx/7d groups, respectively). The specimens were stored at 37°C in artificial saliva. Restored teeth were submitted to a micro-shear bond strength test. The specimens were analyzed using a stereoscope to determine the fracture pattern, classified as adhesive, cohesive, or mixed. The results of the bond strength test were evaluated by analysis of variance, with significance set at P < .05. The groups showed similar bond strength values without significant difference among them (P > .05). There was a predominance of the adhesive-type fracture pattern in all groups. The bleaching agents with different compositions showed similar bond strength values when the restoration was performed 24 hours and 7 days after bleaching, and the results were similar to the control group.

02:40Chemical Bonds
Atoms participate in a chemical bond formation to acquire a completed valence-shell electron configuration similar to that of the noble gas nearest to it in atomic number. Ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds are some of the important types of chemical bonds. Bond energy and bond length determine the strength of a chemical bond.
Types of Chemical Bonds
An ionic bond is formed due to electrostatic attraction between cations and anions. Often, the ions are formed by the transfer of electrons...
03:05Acid Strength and Molecular Structure
In the absence of any leveling effect, the acid strength of binary compounds of hydrogen with nonmetals (A) increases as the H-A bond strength decreases down a group in the periodic table. For group 17, the order of increasing acidity is HF < HCl < HBr < HI. Likewise, for group 16, the order of increasing acid strength is H2O < H2S < H2Se < H2Te. Across a row in the periodic table, the acid strength of binary hydrogen compounds increases with...

In the visual method, metal-ion indicators (metallochromic dyes), which have distinct colors in their free and complex forms, are added to the mixture to signal the titration's end point. They form stable complexes with metal ions, but these complexes are weaker than the corresponding metal–EDTA complexes. As a...
