Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Teeth whitening has become a popular cosmetic dental procedure in recent years, with a wide array of techniques and products available for patients seeking a brighter smile. This thesis investigates the efficacy of various teeth whitening techniques in clinical practice to provide evidence-based recommendations for dental professionals and patients. The study aims to compare the effectiveness, safety, and patient satisfaction of different whitening methods, including in-office treatments, at-home kits, and natural remedies. Chapter One introduces the research topic and provides background information on teeth whitening procedures. The problem statement highlights the need for a comprehensive evaluation of whitening techniques to guide clinical decision-making. The objectives of the study are outlined, along with the limitations and scope of the research. The significance of the study in advancing dental practice and the structure of the thesis are also discussed, along with key definitions of terms used throughout the document. Chapter Two presents a thorough literature review of existing studies on teeth whitening techniques. Ten key themes are explored, including the mechanisms of action of whitening agents, the impact of different concentrations and application methods, and the potential side effects of treatment. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge in the field and identifies gaps in the literature that the present study aims to address. Chapter Three details the research methodology employed in this study. The research design, sample selection criteria, data collection methods, and statistical analyses are described in depth. The chapter also discusses ethical considerations and potential biases that may affect the study results. The methodology is designed to ensure the validity and reliability of the findings and to provide a robust basis for drawing conclusions. Chapter Four presents the findings of the study and offers a detailed discussion of the results. The efficacy of different teeth whitening techniques is evaluated based on objective measures such as shade changes, as well as subjective patient feedback. The chapter also explores factors influencing treatment outcomes, such as patient compliance, treatment duration, and pre-existing dental conditions. The implications of the findings for clinical practice are considered, and recommendations for future research are provided. Chapter Five concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings and implications of the study. The limitations of the research are acknowledged, and areas for further investigation are identified. The practical implications of the study for dental professionals and patients are discussed, and recommendations for optimizing teeth whitening outcomes are provided. Overall, this thesis contributes to the existing knowledge on teeth whitening techniques and offers valuable insights for improving clinical practice and patient care.
