This study is to verify effects of tooth whitening by a directcurrent cold atmospheric nitrogen plasma as a light source for tooth whitening. Cold plasma was examined in 35% HP, 5% HP and distilled water, respectively for 20 minutes whereas control group is conducted to examine tooth whitening effect of 35% HP without cold plasma. The result of research showed that color change CIE(L*,a*,b*) are increased as time takes longer in 5 min, 10 min, 15 min and 20 min respectively and statistically it showed significant differences (p<0.01). After 20 min, A group which experiments plasma applied with 35% HP and B group that experiments plasma applied with 5% showed high changes of colors. For the result of comparing surface roughness, significant differences was indicated statistically in each group (p
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
