Yes there is. Carbamaide peroxide breaks down into hydrogen peroxide in your bleaching gels, and the hydrogen peroxide is what actually bleaches your teeth. Typically, a 28% carbamide peroxide gel equates to roughly a 10-11% hygrogen peroxide gel in strength.

chewychimp is right. chemicals are named after their components for example, a hydrogen peroxide molecule contains one hydrogen atom and one oxygen atom. a carbamide peroxide molecule contains one carbon atom, one oxygen atom, two nitrogen atoms and four hydrogen atoms. carbamide is aslo called urea, a bodily bi-product which you pee out with other bi-products within urine!
the clue is in the names!
