ABSTRACT
This study evaluated the influence of internal tooth bleaching with 38 percent hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on the permeability of the coronal dentin in maxillary anterior teeth and premolars. Seventy teeth (14 per group) were used central incisors (CI), lateral incisor (LI), canines (C), first premolars (1PM) and second premolars (2PM). Pulp chamber access and transversal sectioning at 2 mm from the cementoenamel junction were performed and the specimens were divided into 2 groups (n= 7) a) no treatment and b) bleaching with 38 percent H2O2. The bleaching agent was applied to the buccal surface and to the pulp chamber for 10 min. This procedure was repeated 3 times. The specimens were processed histochemically with copper sulfate and rubeanic acid, sectioned longitudinally, and digitalized in a scanner. The area of stained dentin was measured using Image Tool software. Data were analyzed statistically by ANOVA and Tukey's HSD test (?=0.05). There was statistically significant difference (p<0.001) among the untreated groups, CI (0.23 ± 0.26) having the lowest permeability and LI (10.14 ± 1.89) the highest permeability. Among the bleached groups, dentin permeability was increased in all groups of teeth except for 2PM. It may be concluded that bleaching with 38 percent H2O2 affected dentin permeability near the pulp chamber in maxillary anterior teeth and in first and second premolars.
RESUMO
Este estudo avaliou a influência do clareamento interno com peróxido de hidrogênio (H2O2) a 38 por cento na permeabilidade da dentina coronária de dentes anteriores superiores e pré-molares superiores. Quatorze incisivos centrais (IC), incisivos laterais (IL), caninos (C), primeiros (1PM) e segundos (2PM) pré-molares foram seccionados transversalmente e distribuídos em 2 grupos (n=7) sendo G1 não receberam tratamento e, G2 clareados com aplicação de gel na face vestibular e câmara pulpar por 10 min, repetido 3 vezes. Os espécimes foram processados histoquimicamente por meio de imersão em sulfato de cobre e ácido rubeânico e digitalizados em escaner. A área corada foi aferida (Programa Image Tool). Os dentes que não receberam tratamento, apresentaram diferença estatisticamente significante (p<0,001), sendo o ICS (0,23 ± 0,26) e o ILS (10,14 ± 1,89) os grupo com os menores e os maiores valores de permeabilidade, respectivamente. Quando clareados, a permeabilidade coronária dos grupos dentais foi aumentada, exceto no grupo do 2PM. Concluiu-se que a permeabilidade da dentina coronária nos dentes anteriores superiores e primeiros pré-molares foi alterada pelo clareamento dental interno.
