Abstract :The aim of study was to evaluate the mineral changes caused by enamel bleaching treatments at different application times by scanning electron microscope- energy dispersive X-Ray insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SEM-EDX);. In this study, 36 teeth were divided into 3 groups after mineral measurements insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Flour, Silicon, Aluminum, Strontium); with SEM-EDX insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(n ₌ 12);. 40% hydrogen peroxide gel was used for bleaching in all groups. Bleaching was performed 20 min for Group 1, 40 min for Group 2, 60 min for Group 3. Mineral measurements were performed with SEM-EDX after treatment. In the intra-group comparison, although there was no significant difference between Flour insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(F); and Silicon insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Si); values insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p ˃ 0.05);, there was statistically significant difference in Aluminum insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Al); and Strontium insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Sr); values insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p < 0.05);. After the bleaching process for different application times, mineral change was observed in time-depending comparison. The best results were obtained for Group 2, appling according to manufacturer`s instructions.
