ABSTRACT:
A dental bleaching composition having enhanced effectiveness and reduced sensitivity, its method of use, and a kit containing the ingredients for making the composition. The dental bleaching composition comprises hydrogen peroxide, an inert silica compound, sodium hydroxide, and a discrete inert particulate pigmented material in the form of a gel with a pH of about 9.5 to 10. The dental bleaching composition is placed on the teeth to be bleached, exposed to argon laser energy, and removed. The process is then repeated for a number of cycles. Neutral sodium fluoride is then applied to the bleached teeth for at least 10 minutes to reduce or eliminate post-bleaching sensitivity.
