The biological activity of these molecules is tightly regulated in time and space to preserve tissue homeostasis, influence inflammatory responses and participate in tissue regeneration.

Effects of temperature and in-office bleaching agents on surface and subsurface properties of aesthetic restorative materials
Conclusion The influence of environmental temperature on the in-office bleaching effects on surface and subsurface microhardness of dental materials was material-dependent. However, no substance loss was detected due to the tested bleaching regimen. Clinical significance Environmental temperature should be considered when evaluating the possible bleaching effects on restorative materials. Moreover, dentists should be aware that there might be a need for polishing of restorative materials in clinical situations in which restorations are accidentally exposed to bleaching gels.
