A study led by U of T Dentistry associate professor Laurent Bozec has shown a breakthrough in understanding the effects of teeth-whitening exposure on dental cells viability. The Faculty’s distinguished professor Boris Hinz was also a contributor to the research.
The study, which was recently published in Nature Scientific Reports, aimed to assess the dental cell damage caused by the use of carbamide peroxide teeth-whitening treatments using an in-vitro dentin perfusion assay model.
