About

The goal of this clinical trial will be to evaluate the effect applying an experimental gel based on cannabidiol oil (CBD) on tooth sensitivity induced by tooth bleaching with 35% hydrogen peroxide (HP). Volunteers will be selected and allocated to the following groups: GP - placebo gel, GCBD - experimental cannabidiol gel and GKF - Potassium Nitrate and Sodium Fluoride Gel. In each group, the corresponding desensitizing gel will be applied to on the teeth for 10 minutes. All groups will then undergo in-office whitening treatment with 35% hydrogen peroxide. Patients will be instructed to record tooth sensitivity on a daily basis during the 21 days of follow-up. Pain intensity will be measured using a visual analog scale (VAS), while the risk of developing sensitivity will be recorded after each session of the whitening procedure, with two response option.

Trial design

Primary purpose: Prevention

Allocation: Randomized

Interventional model: Parallel Assignment

Masking: Single Blind

---

75 participants in 3 patient groups, including a placebo group

Placebo group

Placebo Comparator group

Description:

The placebo gel (PG) (natrosol 4%) will be applied to the buccal surfaces of the central and lateral incisors, canines and upper and lower premolars, with a microbrush actively, for 10 minutes. Subsequently, all groups will undergo in-office whitening treatment with 35% hydrogen peroxide (Whiteness HP, FGM). Sensitivity assessment will be carried out using a form consisting of a visual analogue scale (VAS), patients will be instructed to record tooth sensitivity daily, during the 21 days of follow-up. To measure color, the VITA Easyshade spectrophotometer (VITA, Germany)) will be used at two times: baseline (Ti) and one week after the 3rd bleaching session (Tf).
