ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to evaluate the trans-enamel and trans-dentinal effects of a 35 percent hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) bleaching gel on odontoblast-like cells. Enamel/dentin discs obtained from bovine incisors were mounted in artificial pulp chambers (APCs). Three groups were formed G1- 35 percent H2O2; G2- 35 percent H2O2 + halogen light application; G3- control. The treatments were repeated 5 times and the APCs were incubated for 12 h. Then, the extract was collected and applied for 24 h on the cells. Cell metabolism, total protein dosage and cell morphology were evaluated. Cell metabolism decreased by 62.09 percent and 61.83 percent in G1 and G2, respectively. The depression of cell metabolism was statistically significant when G1 and G2 were compared to G3. Total protein dosage decreased by 93.13 percent and 91.80 percent in G1 and G2, respectively. The cells in G1 and G2 exhibited significant morphological alterations after contact with the extracts. Regardless of halogen light application, the extracts caused significantly more intense cytopathic effects compared to the control group. After 5 consecutive applications of a 35 percent H2O2 bleaching agent, either catalyzed or not by halogen light, products of gel degradation were capable to diffuse through enamel and dentin causing toxic effects to the cells.
RESUMO
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos citotóxicos de um agente clareador com 35 por cento de peróxido de hidrogênio (H2O2) sobre células da linhagem odontoblástica. Foram confeccionados discos de esmalte/dentina obtidos de incisivos bovinos, os quais foram posicionados em câmaras pulpares artificiais (CPAs). Três grupos foram formados G1 gel clareador; G2 gel clareador + luz halógena e G3 controle. Após 5 aplicações consecutivas do gel clareador sobre o esmalte, os extratos foram obtidos e aplicados por 24 h sobre as células. Foram realizadas avaliações do metabolismo celular, morfologia das células e expressão total de proteína. O metabolismo celular para G1 e G2 reduziu em 62,09 por cento e 61,83 por cento, respectivamente. A redução do metabolismo celular foi estatisticamente significante quando se comparou G1 e G2 com G3. A expressão de proteína total reduziu em 93,13 por cento e 91,80 por cento para G1 e G2, respectivamente. As células em G1 e G2 apresentaram importantes alterações morfológicas após contato com os extratos. Foi possível concluir que independente da catalização ou não do gel clareador por luz halógena, os componentes que se difundiram através dos tecidos duros do dente após sua quinta aplicação sobre o esmalte, causaram intensos efeitos citotóxicos para as células.
