Abstract
Enamel microabrasion and carbamide peroxide-dentist supervised home ap plied dental bleaching are conservative methods of improving the appea rance of teeth. Children and teens can benefit from these procedures. This article describes the step-by-step clinical technique of enamel m icroabrasion and a protocol for custom-tray-applied home tooth-bleachi ng. Representative case histories are documented with photographs.
