Efficacy of Manual Toothbrushes in Removing Tooth Stains: A 6-Week Clinical Research Study.
NCT06782087
The growing demand for white smile between patients has increased over recent years, the development of techniques and improvement of materials permits searching for beautiful natural smile. The discoloration of teeth might be intrinsic, extrinsic, or combined. A variety of commercial bleaching agents is available. The most common substances used are carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide or a mixture of sodium perborate and hydrogen peroxide.
NCT06802614
Tooth bleaching is widely used to treat the colors of teeth. This study compares the efficiency of two experimental bleaching gels, with and without nanoparticles, and with and without light activation versus two commercial bleaching products of low and high concentrations. The objective is to evaluate tooth color change, sensitivity, and patient satisfaction in patients with moderate yellowing of their teeth. Methods: This is a randomized controlled trial that will include 120 participants aged 18-65 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of 12 treatment groups: Gel A (with or without nanoparticles, with or without light), Gel B (with or without nanoparticles, with or without light), Whiteness HP 35% (with or without light) and Whiteness Automixx 6% (with or without light). The primary outcome is tooth color change, measured using a commercially-available equipment. Secondary outcomes will include tooth sensitivity and patient satisfaction. Randomization will be computer-generated. Results: The study is expected to show differences in color change between the experimental and commercial gels. Tooth sensitivity and patient satisfaction will be evaluated to determine the overall effectiveness and safety of the treatments. Conclusions: This trial will provide information into the whitening efficacy of two experimental gels compared to two widely used commercial products.
NCT06125132
Dentists have recently preferred to use composite materials and restorative techniques that allow the use of simplified clinical protocols in order to reduce the time the patient spends in the dentist's chair and minimize technical sensitivity. Color selection in the clinic is a very sensitive process and is affected by environmental factors and operator-related variables. This has led to the development of single-color universal composite resins that aim to facilitate color selection. These materials have a universal opacity and several Vita shades and are recommended by manufacturers to be used in a single color layer that can match different tooth colors. In recent years, monochromatic universal composites have been developed that are supposed to be compatible with all Vita Classic Scale shades from A1 to D4. Manufacturers report that single-color universal composites can be applied to teeth of all colors without using the layering technique using different color composites. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare the clinical performance of 2 different single-color universal composite resin materials (OMNICHROMA and Zenchroma) in the restoration of non-carious cervical lesions with the control group (Filtek Z250, 3M), which is a multi-color composite resin material, using modified US Public Health Service (USPHS) and World Dental Federation (FDI) criteria.
NCT06532526
The main aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of a bioactive glass desensitizer in reducing tooth sensitivity associated with in-office vital tooth bleaching. In addition, this study aims to compare the effectiveness of the bioactive glass desensitizer with that of a fluoride gel and a gel without desensitizing agent with regard to incidence, intensity, and duration of tooth sensitivity and, finally, to investigate how these agents affect tooth-shade following in-office bleaching. The hypothesis of the study is: There will be no difference in the effect of a bio-active glass desensitizer on tooth sensitivity associated with vital in-office tooth bleaching compared to a fluoride gel and the bio-active glass desensitizer has no effect on the bleaching efficacy.
NCT03514797
This parallel, randomized, and controlled clinical trial will assess the effect of a single prior session of in-office dental bleaching on time required to achieve satisfactory tooth color with at-home bleaching. Participants enrolled will randomly allocated to receive or not a single session of dental bleaching with 35% hydrogen peroxide applied for 45 min. Following, all participants will use customized trays filled with 10% carbamide peroxide for 1h per day until obtain satisfactory results. The primary outcome will be the number of days necessary to obtain satisfactory tooth color. Furthermore, tooth sensitivity and color changes measured with spectrophotometer will be assessed.
NCT03129711
The most frequent reason for failure of laminate veneers made of glass ceramics (feldspathic, leucite based and lithium silicate based ceramics) was fracture of the ceramic, Therefore, ceramic materials that have higher fracture resistance, especially for patients suffering from abnormal occlusion, are needed.
NCT02906982
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel gum health formulation, when used in an intra-oral device or on a toothbrush, for teeth whitening and clinical improvements in periodontal diseases.
NCT01231243
There is a controversy in the dentistry literature about how the use of associated light to activate 35% hydrogen peroxide gel during in-office tooth bleaching may increase the bleaching effectiveness. The studies that demonstrated an increased level of bleaching using light activation employed lower hydrogen peroxide gels while the ones reporting no statistical difference employed higher hydrogen peroxide gels. The hypothesis of this study is that the effectiveness of light activation tooth bleaching in dependent on the hydrogen peroxide concentration employed.
