Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: Number of patients reporting spontaneous pain at some time during the dental bleaching technique and up to 48 hours after the procedure, through self-report. This number will be transformed into a percentage of patients with pain and will be called absolute risk of dental sensitivity. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: The intensity of dental sensitivity will be evaluated using the 5-point numerical scale (NRS 0-4) and the VAS analogue visual scale (0-10) and will be presented as mean and standard deviation at different periods (during tooth whitening , Up to 1 h, from 1 h to 24 h and from 24 to 48 h post-bleaching).;Expected outcome: The color difference between the initial condition and 1 month after bleaching will be assessed using the Vita Classical and Vita Bleachedguide color scales and also with the Vita Easyshade spectrophotometer. The data will be presented in the form of means and standard deviations. | — |
