Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected Outcome 1: Evaluate the color difference between the pre and post-intervention periods verified by measurements with a clinical spectrophotometer and color difference calculation. The color difference will be evaluated and interpreted by the visual acceptability and perceptability thresholds. It is expected to find a mean color difference above 5.4 deltaE units for both treatments, corresponding with excellent whitening outcome according with the acceptability and perceptability thresholds.;Outcome Found 1: An average color difference of 3.38 and 4.48 deltaE 2000 units was observed for the groups treated with 37% carbamide peroxide and 35% hydrogen peroxide, respectively, verified through measurements with a clinical spectrophotometer and calculations of color difference between the pre- and post-intervention periods. The color difference found between the evaluation periods corresponded to good and very good results according to the acceptability and visual perceptibility parameters. | — |
