Vital bleaching: a new light-activated hydrogen peroxide system

F N Hanosh et al. J Esthet Dent. 1992 May-Jun.

Abstract

With ever increasing interest in cosmetic enhancement of dentition by dentists and patients alike, this article introduces a new light-activated bleaching system that adds up to total patient satisfaction and reduced chair time. The chairside application of hydrogen peroxide 30% was effective in lightening a moderate case of tetracycline staining. The uniqueness of this system allows the practitioner complete control within an office setting, and it provides the patient with an immediate result. The ease of application and strict supervision of a dentist has allowed this system to satisfy recent watchdogs of the Federal Drug Administration.
