Purpose: This review critically examined the impact of various whitening toothpaste formulations on color stability, surface roughness, gloss, and microhardness of dental restorative materials.
Study Selection: A comprehensive literature search yielded 101 articles from PubMed, 159 from Embase, and 617 from SCOPUS, spanning 1983-2024, of which 33 met the inclusion criteria.
Results: Studies have shown that whitening toothpastes influence color change and surface characteristics. Hydrogen peroxide (HP) formulations are generally effective in achieving color alteration, although their impact on microhardness and roughness varies. Charcoal-based toothpastes tend to increase surface roughness because of their abrasive nature, whereas blue covarine toothpaste provide some brightening effects but are also associated with higher roughness. Results regarding nanohybrid and microhybrid composites were mixed; some studies found nanohybrids to be superior in color stability, whereas others favored microhybrids. However, nanohybrids are more susceptible to roughness changes due to whitening agents, whereas nanofilled composites consistently demonstrate better surface integrity under abrasive conditions.
Conclusions: These findings highlight the importance of selecting toothpaste formulations that align with restorative material properties to optimize esthetic results without compromising durability. Although HP formulations show promise in balancing whitening efficacy with surface preservation, their long-term effects require further study. Additionally, continued research is needed to refine the formulations, particularly for charcoal and blue covarine, to reduce abrasiveness and extend restoration longevity.

This study investigated the feasibility of using leaves, typically regarded as waste, as a substitute for the widely used rhizome. To identify the optimal parameters for ultrasound-assisted extraction of leaves, we used Box-Behnken design in combination with response surface methodology. The optimal parameters were as follows: ethanol, 80%; extraction temperature, 61.

: In-office bleaching commonly employs high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (HP) or carbamide peroxide (CP), which may compromise enamel integrity. This in vitro paired-design study aimed to compare the chemical and mechanical effects of three commercial bleaching agents-Opalescence Boost (40% HP), Opalescence Quick (45% CP), and BlancOne Ultra+ (35% HP)-on human enamel. The null hypothesis assumed no significant differences between the control and treated samples.

Background: RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have been proved to play essential roles in post-transcriptional regulation of genes associated with adipogenesis. However, the role of the RBP human antigen R (HuR) in the pathogenesis of obesity remains to be clarified.
Methods: Adipocyte-specific HuR knockout (HuR) and HuR floxed (HuR) mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD), or a paired normal control diet (NC) for 16 weeks.

Active road noise control (ARNC) is an effective method for mitigating low-frequency noise in vehicle cabins. Previous work introduced a decoupling-whitening frequency domain filtered-error least mean square (DWFDFeLMS) algorithm, which exhibits rapid convergence characteristics for steady-state environments. However, uncorrelated disturbances significantly impact the convergence performance and stability of adaptive algorithms in practical applications.

Objectives: To assess the penetration of hydrogen peroxide (HP) into the pulp chamber and the bleaching efficacy on teeth with white spot lesions (WSLs) compared to sound teeth, when subjected to both in-office and at-home bleaching treatments.
Materials And Methods: Forty premolars were allocated into four groups (n = 10 each): sound teeth and teeth with artificially induced WSLs, both subjected to at-home bleaching (16% carbamide peroxide) and in-office bleaching (35% hydrogen peroxide). WSLs were induced in half of the specimens using a 14-day pH-cycling protocol alternating between demineralizing and remineralizing solutions.
