In this study, the bleaching effectiveness, cytotoxicity and phenotypic characteristic of dental pulp cells exposed to experimental in-office bleaching protocols were analyzed. In the first study, enamel/dentin discs were subjected to 6 bleaching sessions, composed by 1 or 3 applications of a 35%- or 17.5%-H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) gel, during 5 or 15 minutes, or by a 37%-CP (carbamide peroxide) gel, applied for 10 or 20 minutes. Color change (E) and H2O2 diffusion (leucocrystal violet/ peroxidase) were analyzed. All the tested protocols promoted significant color alteration and reduction of H2O2 diffusion; however, the CP gel presented the worst results (Pillai’s trace/ Bonferroni test; p<0.05). Only the protocols 35%-H2O2/ 1x 15, 35%-H2O2/ 3x 5 min, 17.5%-H2O2/ 3x 15 min and 37%-CP 3x 20 min presented similar E values than traditional protocol (35%-H2O2/ 3x 15 min) up to 6 sessions (ANOVA; SNK and Tamhane tests/p>0.05). In the second study, the trans-enamel and trans-dentinal cytotoxicity on dental pulp cells of selected experimental bleaching protocols (35%-H2O2/ 1x 15 and 1x 5 min; 17.5%-H2O2/ 3x 15, 1x 15 and 1x 5 min) were tested. The protocol 35%-H2O2/ 3x 15 min was considered as the positive control group. The enamel/dentin discs were adapted to trans-wells devices, which were positioned over odontoblast-like cells (MDPC-23) and primary culture of human dental pulp cells (HDPCs) previously seeded on culture plates. The cell viability (MTT) and morphology (SEM) were evaluated immediately and 72 h post-bleaching, as well as oxidative stress and cell membrane damage (fluorescence microscopy). The experimental protocols promoted significant minimization of cell damage, for all evaluated parameters, when compared to positive control, in a time/concentration fashion (Kruskal-Wallis; Mann-Whitney/ p<0.05). Cells exposed to protocols with the 17.5%-H2O2 gel presented cell recovery capability in around 50% three days after bleaching...
