Sources: ‘‘Medline’’ and ‘‘ISI Web of Science’’ databases from 1966 and 1974, respectively were searched electronically with key words tooth, teeth, colo*r, white*, bleach* and Conclusions: The importance of tooth whitening for patients and consumers has seen a dramatic increase in the number of products and procedures over recent years, with a concomitant rise in publications on this topic. Literature suggests that the mechanisms of tooth whitening by peroxide occur by the diffusion of peroxide through enamel to causeoxidation and hence lightening of coloured species, particularly within the dentinal regions.
A number of approaches are available for measuring changes in tooth colour. These includevisual measurements by trained clinicians and instrumental measurements using spectro-photometry, chromameters and digital image analysis. The key factors that affect toothwhitening efficacy by peroxide containing products are concentration and time. In general,higher concentrations are faster than lower concentrations. However, lower concentrationscan approach the efficacy of higher concentrations with extended treatment times. Alter-native bleach systems to peroxide have received only minor attention. The efficacy of lightactivated systems versus non-light activated controls in clinical studies is limited andconflicting. Other factors which can influence tooth bleaching outcome include type ofstain, initial tooth colour and subject age.
