“…The bleaching agent possibly interacted with the dental tissues, since cohesive fractures in enamel were observed (Figure 2b). The effect of microstructural changes in the enamel mechanical properties have been investigated and the results suggest reduction of fracture toughness and tensile strength 1,18 , which could be related to enamel cohesive fracture of specimens. Rotstein et al 17 (1992) reported that bleaching treatments may alter the dentin chemical structure, due to a reduction in the Ca/P ratio after carbamide and hydrogen peroxide bleaching 16 .…”

“…The porosity created by the bleaching agent in the enamel may have acted as a stress raiser during µTBS testing, resulting in premature failures. 12 The control groups (FL and SP), however, exhibited both higher bond strengths than bleached enamel and a predominance of adhesive failure (45 to 50%). Differences were observed between the three-step (FL) and two-step (SP) etch-and-rinse adhesives (µTBS FL > µTBS SP).…”

“…The cohesive failures confirm the hypothesis that bleaching may promote enamel structural changes, thus initializing fracture during debonding at the enamel rather than at the adhesive-bonded interface. Cavalli et al 12 observed that bleached fractured enamel presented altered prism structure following exposure to regular (fluoride-free) carbamide peroxides. Scanning electron microscopy showed a preference for dissolution of the boundaries between the prism and the interprismatic substance and a porous-like appearance of the bleached prisms.…”
