Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

6 Test methods
6.1 Preparation of tooth specimens
Prepare enamel and dentine specimens taken from a consistent location on extracted human or bovine teeth
that have been stored in a 0,2 % solution (mass concentration) of sodium azide or other solutions of
equivalent efficacy for disinfection purpose. Grind the specimen surface using a sequence starting at P400
and sequentially to a minimum of P1200 silicon carbide paper in accordance with ISO 6344-1 under a
constant flow of water and then polish the surface using a slurry or paste of 0,3 µm mean particle size
aluminium oxide. Ensure a minimum of 1 mm thickness of enamel or dentine tissue for the test specimen.
Prevent dehydration of test specimens during the specimen preparation procedure.
6.2 Preparation and application of tooth bleaching product
The dispensing, processing and application of the tooth bleaching product used in tests shall follow
manufacturer's instructions for use. The method of bleach application shall simulate the clinical procedure
relative to quantity, frequency and duration of the application. Specimens shall be stored in a 37 °C artificial
[6]
saliva solution similar to the one described in the ANSI/ADA Specification No. 41 between bleaching
intervals and for 24 h after the last bleach application prior to testing.
6.3 Surface microhardness
Evaluate enamel surface hardness before and after bleaching treatment.
Determine the surface microhardness with the KHN or VHN by applying a load of 0,49 N (equivalent to a 50 g
load) for 15 s. Evaluate a minimum of 10 specimens for each group, with three indentations for each specimen.
Prevent dehydration of test specimens during the specimen preparation procedure.
7 Packaging, marking and information to be supplied by the manufacturer
7.1 General
Additional information may be included at the discretion of the manufacturer or as required by regulation.
7.2 Packaging
The components of the material shall be supplied in properly sealed containers which adequately protect the

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Introduction
Products for external tooth bleaching are used in dentistry primarily for changing the colour of natural teeth towards lighter or whiter
direction. They are applied in the oral cavity directly on the outer surfaces of teeth. This Standard includes requirements and test
methods for products intended for external bleaching natural teeth by chemical means. A tooth bleaching product should be
evaluated to determine its biological safety according to ISO 10993-1 and ISO 7405.
The efficacy of a bleaching product should be established by clinically relevant tooth colour change towards lighter or whiter direction
using acceptable methods such as shade guides and/or electronic instruments; the methods should be described adequately and
available for validation. In the case that clinical data on the efficacy of a tooth bleaching product is not available, users of this
standard intending to assess the efficacy in vitro are advised to consider using a laboratory method as that given in Annex C
(Informative).

Dentistry — Products for external tooth bleaching
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements and their test methods for products for external tooth bleaching, intended for use in
the oral cavity either by dental professionals (in-office tooth bleaching products) and/or at home by individuals (professional or non-
professional home-use tooth bleaching products). It also specifies requirements for their packaging and labelling, including
instructions for use.
The following tooth bleaching products are not covered by this Standard:
1) those covered by ISO-11609;
2) those intended to change colour perception of natural teeth by mechanical methods (e.g. stain removal) or using restorative
approaches, such as veneers and crowns; and,
3) auxiliary or supplementary materials (e.g., tray materials) and instruments or devices (e.g., lights) that may be used in conjunction
with the bleaching products.
