Journal ArticleDOI
Cytotoxicity and Dentin Permeability of Carbamide Peroxide and Hydrogen Peroxide Vital Bleaching Materials, in vitro
TL;DR: Inhibition of succinyl dehydrogenase activity corresponded to the amount of hydrogen peroxide that can rapidly diffuse through dentin in vitro and reach concentrations which are toxic to cultured cells in less than 1 h.

Dental bleaching compositions and methods for bleaching teeth surfaces
TL;DR: In this paper, an improved dental tray having reservoirs for holding the dental composition adjacent the desired tooth surfaces is used in combination with the sustained release dental composition, which helps retain and seal the soft tray material against the patient's teeth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological properties of peroxide-containing tooth whiteners.
TL;DR: The history of using peroxides for tooth whitening, the toxicology of H2O2 and carbamide peroxide, and available information on the safety of whiteners are reviewed.
Patent
Sticky dental compositions for adhering a passive-type dental tray over a person's teeth
TL;DR: Sticky dental compositions include a sticky matrix material into which is dispersed an appropriate dental agent, such as a bleaching agent, a desensitizing agent, and an anticariogenic agent, an antimicrobial agent as discussed by the authors.
Patent
One-part dental compositions and methods for bleaching and desensitizing teeth
Steven D. Jensen,Dan E. Fischer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a tackifying agent, such as carboxypolymethylene, dispersed within a solvent, assists the dental composition in retaining the dental tray over the person's teeth.

Gingival Condition Associated with Orthodontic Treatment
TL;DR: This work presents a probabilistic procedure that can be used as a guide for the design of smile-gauging apparatus and shows good results in both straight and crooked teeth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of dental plaque in orthodontic patients.
J.W. Balenseifen,John V. Madonia +1 more
TL;DR: Evaluating changes in the dental plaque of orthodontic patients by studying pH, carbohydrate content, and the microbial populations of streptococci and lactobacilli found an average increase of 3,500% in the plaque after banding procedures.

A study of the effects of orthodontic appliances on the oral microbial flora.
Rodney H. Bloom,Lee R. Brown +1 more
TL;DR: The subjects whose treatment involved the greatest number of orthodontic bands and auxiliaries manifested the greatest quantitative increase in the microbial populations studied, and only the lactobacilli increased by a statistically significant amount.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gingival condition associated with partial orthodontic treatment.
TL;DR: A longitudinal clinical study on gingival condition was made on seventy-five patients treated with fixed orthodontic appliances in one or both dental arches, demonstrating that all patients developed generalized gingivitis during the period of active treatment.
