Brief summary

A randomised double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effect of bioactive glass 45S5 (BAG) on color change and tooth sensitivity (TS) associated with at-home vital tooth bleaching using 20% carbamide peroxide (CP).

Interventions

The participants will be instructed to apply 20% carbamide peroxide bleaching agent (7 days—04 h each) (Opalescence® PF™, Ultradent Products Inc. USA—20% carbamide peroxide) , delivered by the bleaching custom tray. followed by the application of tooth paste containing Bioactive glass 45S5 (Sensodyne Repair & Protect contains NovaMin® technology) delivered by the bleaching custom tray (7 days—30 min each). The bleaching agent and 45S5 toothpaste will be delivered individually by the participants

The bleaching agent and 45S5 toothpaste will be delivered individually by the participants themselves at their home by the bleaching custom tray. For monitor adherence to the intervention , the researcher will check the bleaching agent and toothpaste containers after 7 days of commencement of intervention to make sure that they are empty.
