Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
-Expected outcome: The primary outcome to be observed is the effectiveness of tooth whitening - Outcome analysis method: through objective analysis in a digital spectrophotometer (Easy Shade - Vita), in which the tooth color variation can be quantified on the CIEL * a * b scale, as well as by the value information referring to the scale Vita, also measured by the same device. This scale provides an assessment of tooth color variation. The teeth analyzed for this parameter will be the 6 upper anterior teeth. A plaster model of the upper dental arch was obtained and, from this, a silicone plate was made in a vacuum machine. A hole was made in the vestibular face, corresponding to the middle third of the canine to canine, in order to have a standardization in the color measurement. This variable was evaluated by an examiner, previously calibrated, using the spectrophotometer (VITA EasyShade®, VITA Zahnfabrik, Germany) - Parameters analyzed: To standardize the evaluation of tooth color, only the upper anterior teeth were evaluated, for which an average was determined. The color variation was determined in two ways: 1) Color variation on the Vita scale, where by obtaining the color from the Vita scale, on the spectrophotometer, where a numerical value is assigned to the hue and saturation of the tooth (B1 = 1; A1 = 2; B2 = 3; D2 = 4; A2 = 5; C1 = 6; C2 = 7; D4 = 8; A3 = 9; D3 = 10; B3 = 11; A3.5 = 12; B4 = 13; C3 = 14; A4 = 15; C4 = 16) 2) Through the color decomposition by the CIEL * ab system, calculating the variations of the axes L * (?L *), a * (?a *), b ( ?b *) and the total color difference (?E = [(?L *) 2 + (?a *) 2 + (?b *) 2] 1/2) For both evaluations, the times were used: baseline, immediately after the last session, 7 days and 1 month For each of the evaluation times, the color variation was carried out, always comparing with the baseline.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
-Expected outcome: The expected secondary outcome is tooth sensitivity after tooth whitening. - Outcome analysis method: Dental sensitivity will be analyzed using a visual analog scale in which the patient will identify the perception of pain, ranging from none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), considerable (3) and severe (4), in the interval: during whitening sessions and at times 24 and 48h, after the whitening procedure. - Parameters analyzed: variation of the grade assigned on the visual analog scale (VAS).;-Expected outcome: Another expected secondary outcome is assessment of the patient's level of satisfaction with the bleaching techniques employed. - Outcome analysis method: Individuals, at the end of treatment, will provide data on the level of satisfaction with the whitening technique used, in a specific form, which covers four topics: time spent in the session, comfort of the technique, number of sessions and final result of the bleaching procedure. - Parameters analyzed: For each item of the satisfaction questionnaire, the answers attributed could be: very satisfied, very dissatisfied, indifferent, satisfied and very satisfied. The analysis carried out was through the sum by group of the concept attributed to each technique.
