A COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF THE EFFICACY OF TEETH WHITENING AGENT WITH AND WITHOUT DIODE LASER: A SPLIT-MOUTH STUDY.

Abstract

Over the decades, the demand for teeth whitening has increased which has prompted the creation of numerous novel bleaching products. A teethwhitening product called Synergy gel makes claim to cause no signicant sensitivity, is highly effective, has ease of handling, and is used without a gingival barrier. Hence, this study is to evaluate the efcacy of teeth-whitening agents with and without the use of a diode laser. The teeth Method: in this split-mouth design were grouped into group A (Novo Synergy tooth whitening with an 810nm diode laser) and group B (Only Novo Synergy tooth whitening). There is a signicant difference between both groups at imme Result: diate and 15 days. But, there is no signicant difference between both groups at 3 months. The use of diode lasers (810nm) to enhance bleaching ha Conclusion: s signicant efcacy to that of the synergy gel bleaching but for a shorter period of time.
