Brief Summary

Objectives: This study will determine the clinical efficacy of bleaching agent 37% carbamide peroxide compared to 35% hydrogen peroxide on the change of color scores in anterior superior teeth, in-office bleaching technique after 7, 14 and 37 days; and the Risk to the tooth sensitivity before, during and 24 hours after the procedure. Materials and Methods: Fifty patients will be selected for this single-blind, parallel, randomized-controlled clinical trial. The whitening treatment with 37% carbamide peroxide or 35% hydrogen peroxide (control) will be carried out in a single application of 45 minutes for two sessions with a 7-day interval. The sensitivity level will be assessed before, during and 24 hours after the procedure using verbal and analogic visual analogue (VAS) scales. Color alteration will be assessed by a bleach guide scale 7 days after each session and 30 days after the last session. Relative risk to sensitivity will be calculated and adjusted by session; while comparison of overall risk will performed by McNemar's test. Data on the sensitivity level for both scales will be subjected to the Mann-Whitney tests (α = 0.05). The color change will be measured with a spectrophotometer using the CIE L \* a \* b \* and the L\*, a \* and b \* parameter delta data, and ΔE and Δ00, will be individually subjected to two-way repeated measures ANOVA test to compare the two bleaching techniques at each evaluation time (α = 0.05).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Color evaluation

    Clinical efficacy of bleaching agent 37% carbamide peroxide compared to 35% hydrogen peroxide (active control). The color change will be measured with a spectrophotometer using the CIE L \* a \* b \* and the L\*, a \* and b \* parameter delta data, and ΔE and Δ00.

    Prior to bleaching procedure, after 7, 14 and 37 days.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Risk to the tooth sensitivity

    During the bleaching procedure, immediately after bleaching agent removal and up to 24 hours after each session.

  • Level of tooth sensitivity

    During the bleaching procedure, immediately after bleaching agent removal and up to 24 hours after each session.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 35 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients included in this clinical trial will be at least 18 years old with good oral health. Only patients presenting canine upper teeth with shade mismatching with 2.5 M2 (Vita Bleach guide 3D-Master scale, Vita-Zahnfabrik, Bad Sackingen, Germany) or darker will be included.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with any of the six upper anterior teeth with caries, restoration, severe discoloration (e.g., stains caused by tetracycline), enamel hypoplasia, gingival recession, dentin exposure, pulpitis, or endodontics will be excluded. Participants submitted to previous bleaching procedures, presenting prior tooth sensitivity, pregnant or breastfeeding will be also excluded.
