BALDION ELORZA, Paula Alejandra; VITERI LUCERO, Laura Nathalia e LOZANO TORRES, Edilberto. EFFECT OF PEROXIDASE ON COMPOSITE RESIN ADHESION TO DENTAL ENAMEL AFTER WHITENING. Rev Fac Odontol Univ Antioq [online]. 2012, vol.24, n.1, pp.8-21. ISSN 0121-246X.
INTRODUCTION: some reports suggest that residual oxygen released by whitening agents interfere with composite resin adhesion to dental structure. The objective of this study is therefore to compare composite resins' shear bond strength to dental enamel after whitening using 38% hydrogen peroxide pre- and post- treatment with peroxidase enzyme before adhesion. METHODS: a total of 45 healthy human premolars were selected and divided into three groups of 15 teeth each. Group 1: control group (only adhesion); group 2: whitening and adhesion; group 3: whitening, application of peroxidase, and adhesion. After treatment, shear bond strength was measured with a Shimadzu testing machine in order to determine significant statistical differences among the three groups, with a confidence level of 95% and p < 0.05. RESULTS: the control group obtained a shear bond strength of 12.8Mpa (± 3.2), the whitening group showed an average 3.5 Mpa (± 1.43), and the group treated with whitening and peroxidase presented an average 12.2 Mpa (± 3.12). CONCLUSIONS: shear bond strength values significantly decreased with application of 38% hydrogen peroxide; however, a significant increase was also obtained by applying peroxidase before adhesion.
