“…Some studies reported that there was no evident change in enamel microhardness and morphology after bleaching treatment. [4][5][6][7] But others have found calcium loss, [8][9][10] alterations of surface morphology, [11][12][13][14][15] changes in chemical composition, 10,[15][16][17][18] decrease in hardness 10,15,[19][20][21][22] and fracture resistance 23 of enamel. The divergence in these results is probably related to different methodologies (in vivo or in vitro, time of evaluation, bleaching agents used, time of application, immersion of the specimens in artificial saliva between treatments, type of storage, bleaching agent pH, usage of fluoride, etc.).…”
