摘要
ObjectiveThis study aims to assess hydrogen peroxide (HP) penetration into the pulp chamber, color change (CC), physical-chemical properties, and material wastage (MW) and material used (MU) in mixing tips when using in-office bleaching gels with two different mixing tips.Materials and MethodsForty teeth were divided into five groups (n = 8) based on the bleaching gels used (Pola Office +37.5% [PO+] and Whiteness HP Automixx Plus 35% [AM+]) and the mixing tip types (T-Mixer and Helical). A negative control group was treated with ultra-purified water. HP concentration was measured using UV-Vis, and CC was evaluated with a digital spectrophotometer. Initial concentration, pH, and viscosity were measured through Titration, a Digital pH meter, and Rheometer, respectively. MW and MU were measured using a precise analytical balance. Statistical analysis included two-way ANOVA, Tukey's, and Dunnett's test (a = 0.05).ResultsA higher HP concentration was observed with PO+ with the Helical mixing tip in comparison with AM+ (p = 0.01). No significant differences in CC or MU were found for different mixing tips (p = 0.001). The T-mixer mixing tip resulted in significantly less MW (p < 0.00001) and improved mixture homogeneity and viscosity.ConclusionsUtilizing a T-mixer with self-mixing bleaching gels achieves comparable CC while reducing MW. Moreover, it decreases HP penetration when using PO+.Clinical SignificanceFor the application of a self-mixing in-office bleaching gel, a T-mixer mixing tip should be recommended, as it reduces the penetration of hydrogen peroxide into the pulp chamber when using PO+, while also minimizing gel wastage.
