Summary: | Objective
This study assessed the impact of 10% hydrogen peroxide whitening strip exposure on the genotoxicity and oxidative damage by means of the buccal micronucleus cytome assay by counting nuclear abnormalities (NAs) in buccal mucosa and attached gingiva cells and by analyzing in whole saliva the molecule 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG).
Materials and methods
The study was conducted on 113 subjects divided into two groups: group 1 or control (
n
= 53), non-whitening strip exposed, and group 2 (
n
= 60), whitening strip exposed (Crest® 3D Whitestrips® premium plus, 10% hydrogen peroxide). Oral epithelial cells and whole saliva samples were taken at the beginning and 30 days later for group 1 and immediately before bleaching and 15 and 30 days after the end of the bleaching for group 2.
Results
An increased frequency of NAs (
