Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the effect of a 6% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) solution, activated with
UV-light, in colour, wear, microhardness and roughness of enamel surface.
Methods: Five teeth were cut, polished and exposed to black tea solution to confer them a dark color. The
specimens were tested before and after bleaching using a spectrophotometer colour equipment, a nanotribometer,
a micro durometer and a SEM.
Results: On comparing with untreated, the treated enamel surface showed an improvement of colour but a
reduction of microhardness and an increase of roughness and wear.
Conclusions: A 6% hydrogen peroxide solution, activated with UV-light, has capacity to induce alterations in
enamel surface making it less hard and more susceptible to wear.
