This study investigated the effect of a 30% hydrogen peroxide bleaching agent on bovine enamel in terms of mineral loss. Contents of mineral elements both in the teeth and bleaching agent were evaluated to estimate the effect of hydrogen peroxide on teeth. Finely polished non-carious bovine incisors (n = 5) were immersed in a 30% hydrogen peroxide solution for 120 h. The amounts of concentrated elements in the bleaching agent (5 mL) were measured using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometer and ion chromatograph. The contents of mineral elements in the teeth were measured using an electron probe microanalyzer. The Ca/P ratio in the bleaching agent was approximately 1.99. The amount of Zn in the bleaching agent was below the detection limit. The total content of mineral elements of the unbleached enamel (90.75 +/- 1.58) was slightly greater than that of the bleached enamel (87.44 +/- 0.77). The Ca/P ratio of the bleached enamel was 2.06. The amount of Ca loss from the bleached enamels after 120 h was similar to the amount of Ca loss from teeth exposed to a soft drink or juice for a few minutes. Therefore, mineral loss caused by the bleaching process may not be a threatening factor to teeth.
