About this study

Official title: Effect of Tri Calcium Phosphate Paste on Efficacy and Postoperative Sensitivity Associated With At-Home Vital Tooth Whitening Using 20% Carbamide Peroxide 'A Randomized Controlled Study'

Teeth sensitivity is the most popular symptom when using At-Home tooth whitening. Tri calcium phosphate containing pastes may affect the efficacy and postoperative sensitivity associated with At-Home vital tooth whitening using 20% carbamide peroxide

Read the detailed description

Subjects enrolled in this study will apply home bleaching trays with 20%carbamide peroxide 4h/day for a week, the sample will be divided into two groups : the experimental group will apply tri calcium phosphate containing paste(Clinpro) 30 min/day after bleaching treatment, the control group will apply placebo paste 30 min/day after bleaching treatment,

Being tested

    Measured: at (1) 24 hours following application, (2) at 48 hours post-application, (3) at 72 hours post-application and (4) at seven days following application

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Color Shade

    color shade change will be detected; using Vita Easy Shadeِ Advance 4.0.

    Measured: at (1) 72 hours following application , (2) one week following application, (3) two weeks following application, and (4) one month following application

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Sensitivity Status (time frame: at (1) 24 hours following application, (2) at 48 hours post-application, (3) at 72 hours post-application and (4) at seven days following application). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03026725, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
