Genotoxicity of 22% Carbamide Peroxide Bleaching Agent on Oral Cells using the Micronucleus Technique
2020
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Several bleaching products and methods were introduced over the last years. However, the consequences of 22% carbamide peroxide on the genetic material of oral mucosal cells is uncertain. Aim: This study investigated the genotoxic effect of 22% carbamide peroxide on oral mucosal cells using the Micronucleus (MN) technique. Materials and Methods: Sixteen volunteers participated in the study. At-home bleaching was performed for 2 hours per day for 21 days. Cells were collected by scraping the
