Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Assess the absolute risk of tooth sensitivity. Patients will be expected to report spontaneous pain at some point or up to 48 hours after each session, using the VAS visual analogue scale (0 to 10). The percentage of patients with pain will be called the absolute risk of tooth sensitivity.;Evaluate the intensity of dental sensitivity through the records made by the patients using the visual analogue VAS scale (0 to 10). Values ??will be presented as mean and standard deviation.;Assess the absolute risk of gingival irritation. Patients will be expected to report irritation at some point or up to 48 hours after each session using the VAS visual analogue scale (0 to 10). The percentage of patients with pain will be called the absolute risk of gingival irritation.;Evaluate the intensity of gingival irritation through the records made by patients using the VAS visual analogue scale (0 to 10).
