About this trial

A prospective, non-randomized, single-arm interventional clinical study with a before-after design will be conducted to assess changes in CIELab color parameters and the Whiteness Index for Dentistry (WID) following a standardized combined dental bleaching protocol. The study aims to evaluate the contribution of the a\* parameter (green-red axis) to overall dental whiteness.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Combined Dental Bleaching

    Procedure/Surgery

    The intervention consists of an in-office bleaching phase with two 20-minute applications of 40% hydrogen peroxide, followed by an at-home bleaching phase using 16% carbamide peroxide applied with custom trays for 90 minutes daily. Treatment will continue until color stabilization is achieved, defined as a change in WID of less than 2.6 units between two consecutive weekly measurements.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Change in Whiteness Index for Dentistry (WID)

Change in WID values calculated from CIELab parameters (L\*, a\*, b\*) between baseline and the end of treatment (up to 12 weeks).

Time frame
From baseline to end of treatment (up to 12 weeks).

Secondary outcomes

1

Change in L* parameter

Difference in L\* values between baseline and the end of treatment (up to 12 weeks) measured using spectrophotometry.

Time frame
Baseline to end of treatment (up to 12 weeks).
2

Change in a* parameter

Difference in a\* values between baseline and the end of treatment (up to 12 weeks), including assessment of sign changes.

Time frame
Baseline to end of treatment (up to 12 weeks).
3

Change in b* parameter

Difference in b\* values between baseline and the end of treatment (up to 12 weeks), measured using spectrophotometry.

Time frame
Baseline to end of treatment (up to 12 weeks)
4

Correlation between WID and CIELab parameters

Assessment of the relationship between changes in WID and changes in L\*, a\*, and b\*.

Time frame
At end of treatment (up to 12 weeks).
