Brief summary
The present study is aimed to evaluation of shade for clinical color change of discolored teeth treated by bleaching vs laminate veneers.
Detailed description
Dental aesthetics, including tooth color, is of great importance for majority of the people and any discoloration or staining can affect their quality of life negatively1,2. In the UK it has been reported that 28% of grownups are dissatisfied with the appearance of their teeth and in the USA that 34% of grownups population are dissatisfied with their current tooth color. Moreover, in a survey of 3215 subjects from the UK 50% have admitted that they had some kind of tooth discoloration3,4. Tooth bleaching has become one of the most popular aesthetic dental treatments. Because tooth bleaching is an effective, non-invasive procedure for the change of tooth discoloration, it is the best of treatment options for improving teeth color 5. Ceramic restorations with excellent biocompatibility are widely used to achieve highly aesthetic characteristics in fixed prosthodontics6. Porcelain laminate veneers have become a popular method of treated tooth discoloration. But are expensive, brittle and difficult to repair7.
Interventions
PROCEDUREBleaching agent ( BOOST 40%)
Opalescence Boost 40% is a 40% hydrogen peroxide, medical power bleaching gel. The jet mix syringe ensures freshness for each application and precise dosing of the activator. One barrel contains a unique chemical activation with sodium fluoride and potassium nitrate, which have been demonstrated to reduce caries susceptibility, lower sensitivity, and improve enamel micro-hardness. The other barrel contains the concentrated hydrogen peroxide. When mixed, Opalescence Boost results in a 1.1% fluoride and 3% potassium nitrate concentration.
PROCEDURElaminate veneers(lithium-silicate)
A lithium-silicate glass ceramic is newly introduced to the market. After crystallization, it demonstrates an ideal combination of strength, aesthetics and translucency that mirrors the vitality of natural teeth for fabrication of full anatomic anterior and posterior crowns. It differentiated from other ceramics by its high chipping resistance, due to their monolithic composition and average flexural strength of 385 MPa. Also Milling Block has good wear resistance due to the high content of ultra-fine nano-meter size crystalline structure. Lithium-silicates ceramic blocks are available in the commonly used VITA Classical and Chromascop Bleach shades.

TREATMENT
Masking
SINGLE (Outcomes Assessor)
Masking description
Single blinded (outcome assessor). Assessors supervisor and co-supervisor will be blinded to the assigned material. However the operator and patient can't be blinded due to the difference in preparation and shade of the ceramic materials and bleaching agent. * The assessors will assess all outcomes blinded to the material assigned for each patient. * Three spectrophotometer measurements will be recorded each time, with the active point of the instrument focused on the cervical third of each tooth, then mean color from three measurements will be calculated. * Digital photograph measures the color of teeth based on the Adobe Photoshop software. (Version 5.5).
Intervention model description
split mouth randomized control, co-supervisor will write number for each member in each group (left side treatment A, right side treatment B or left side treatment B, right side treatment A) by indispensible pen on large white paper sheet. The sheet will be folded eight times and saved inside opaque well sealed envelope in which the inner content cannot be seen by naked eyes.

Inclusion criteria
* Patients included in this clinical trial : * Men and women between 15and 40 years of age. * Had good general and oral health. * The participants needed to have six vital maxillary or mandibular anterior teeth without caries lesions or restorations. * The maxillary canine was shade A3 or darker as judged by comparison with a shade guide (VITA Classical Shade Guide or Spectrophotometer measurement ).
Exclusion criteria
