COMPARISON OF STAIN ABSORPTION BY ENAMEL AFTER BLEACHING WITH TWO DIFFERENT BLEACHING AGENTS One of the most frequent complaints from individuals looking for cosmetic treatment is tooth discolouration. Both internal and extrinsic variables, such as ingesting chemicals and eating foods that stain teeth, can affect tooth colour variation. Several solutions that purport to whiten teeth and eliminate stains are currently available on the market. Bleaching gels often include a variety of application methods and varied amounts of hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. In addition, these various uses give rise to various activation mechanisms that enable dental bleaching through oxi-reduction reactions based on partial oxidation of the active ingredient. 8 periodontally compromised teeth extracted in Oral and Maxillofacial department of Saveetha Dental College was collected and cleaned thoroughly. The teeth were segregated in two groups(group 1:bleached with pola office and group 2 : bleached with cavex). The teeth were bleached according to the manufactures’ instructions. The two groups of samples were then immersed in almond flavored milk with high saffron content for 24 hrs. Spectrometry values were measured immediately after bleaching and 24 hrs later. The values were then tabulated and graphs comparing the average value were obtained. The study shows that teeth bleached with Cavex bleaching agent showed less stain absorption compared to that of Pola office. Hence it can be concluded that the whiteness of the enamel can be ensured for a longer time in teeth bleached with Cavex than that bleached with Pola Office.
