Abstract

---

Introduction: Recent researchers have discovered that the two main bleaching products; carbamide peroxide (CP) and hydrogen peroxide (HP) have been affecting the physical conditions dental restorations for example, its surface roughness, ion leakage, hardness and color. Materials and methods: This is an experimental study, which aimed to assess the possible change in shades of A-1 and B-3 composite material. We selected two types of bleaching materials, with one consisting of 15% and the other with 22% carbamide peroxide. Results: The box plot shows the spread of color change for the two groups after bleaching with 15% and 22% carbamide peroxide through five statistics, minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum. Conclusion: The concentration and composition of bleaching materials have an effect on the possible color change of the composite filling materials.

Keywords: Dental bleaching, Tooth discoloration, Shade change.
