Intracoronal bleaching can cause external cervical resorption. To bleach teeth safely, avoid heat, use a dental base, and ensure proper sealing to prevent inflammatory processes.

Area of Science:

  • Endodontics
  • Dental Materials Science

Background:

  • Intracoronal bleaching, including the walking bleach technique, is a common dental procedure.
  • External cervical resorption is a significant complication linked to intracoronal bleaching.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the history and development of intracoronal bleaching techniques.
  • To analyze the relationship between intracoronal bleaching and external cervical resorption.
  • To identify factors contributing to external cervical resorption and propose preventive measures.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of historical intracoronal bleaching techniques.
  • Analysis of published case reports on external cervical resorption following intracoronal bleaching.
  • Evaluation of contributing factors such as the use of heat, placement of dental bases, and root canal sealer setting time.

Main Results:

  • 100% of affected teeth lacked an intermediate dental base.
  • 84% utilized a thermocatalytic technique (heat application).
  • 80% were bleached after root canal sealer fully set, and 72% had a history of trauma.

Conclusions:

  • External cervical resorption is an inflammatory process potentially caused by bleaching agents in the attachment apparatus.
  • Safe intracoronal bleaching requires avoiding heat, using an appropriately placed intermediate dental base, and selecting an effective sealing base.
