The aim of this project is to evaluate in vitro and in vivo the effect of dental bleaching agents, carbamide peroxide 16% (T1) and hydrogen peroxide 35% (T2) together with desensitizers/remineralizer agents, Sensodyne® dentifrice (D1); experimental dentifrice with 7,5% of Biosilicate micro-particles (D2); Odontis RX® dentifrice (D3); Sorriso® dentifrice (D4); Biosilicate micro-particles paste, 1:1 (D5), Desensebilize Nano P (D6), bioglass type 45S5 paste, 1:1 (D7); GC= distilled water, in the experimental groups: T1/D1; T1/D2; T1/D3; T1/D4; T1/D5; T1/D6; T1/D7; T1/GC e T2/D1; T2/D2; T2/D3; T2/D4; T2/D5; T2/D6; T2/D7; T2/GC. In the in vitro study, microhardness and roughness measurements, and images using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) will be made on samples of bovine dental enamel and dentin (4x4x3mm; n=10 per group) before and after the treatment with the bleaching gels (T1= 14 days/ 04 hours/day; T2=single session) and the desensitizers/remineralizer agents. In the clinical study, the volunteers (n=10 per group) will be evaluated regarding dentin hypersensitivity (DH), using visual analogue scale, before the beginning of the treatments (T1 and T2) and during the next 14 days (1º, 3º, 7º, 10 º e 14º days) in which the desensitizers/remineralizer agents (there´s no control group in the clinical experiments) will be applying. Data will be analysed intra and inter-group, statistically.
Background. Tooth sensitivity (TS) is a common side effect of tooth bleaching. The authors conducted a study to evaluate the efficiency of experimental desensitizing agents in reducing TS caused by bleaching agents. Methods. To test experimental desensitizing agents in TS caused by dental bleaching the authors selected 113 participants without TS and randomly treated them with T1-16% carbamide peroxide (14 days) or T2-35% hydrogen peroxide (single session). The period of the study was 14 days. Participants (in T1 and T2) used domestic-use (DU) or in office (IO) desensitizers (D): Control Group; (DU)- experimental dentifrice with 7,5% of Biosilicate micro-particles-(D1); Sensodyne® dentifrice-(D2); (DU)-Odontis RX Sensiblock® dentifrice-(D3); (IO)-Biosilicate micro-particles paste, 1:1-(D4); (IO)-bioglass type 45S5 paste, 1:1 (D6); (IO)-Desensebilize Nano P-(D6). On days 1, 3, 7, 10 and 14, the authors received the participants to apply IO desensitizers and to record TS with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Data was analyzed with two-way ANOVA (considering time and desensitizing as factors) and post-hoc Bonferroni test (α=0.05). Results. The use of experimental desensitizing agents G2 and G5 did not cause significantly difference in TS comparing to baseline. TS was not significantly different when G2 was used after 16% carbamide peroxide and G5 after 35% hydrogen peroxide application. Self-perception TS values were significantly (p\<0.001) higher than recorded VAS. Conclusions. Experimental desensitizing agents containing Biosilicate® can prevent TS caused by bleaching agents: in dentifrice form when associated to 16% carbamide peroxide and in paste, when 35% hydrogen peroxide is used.

Dentin hypersensitivity
The pain caused by dentin hypersensitivity was measured by stimulating cervical region of the teeth with a blast of air from a triple seringe and the patient will relate his/her pain in accordance with a visual analog scale (VAS) which consists of a 1 to 10 scale where the patients recorded their dentin hypersensitivity when stimulated. Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) was measured, using visual analogue scale, before the beginning of the treatments (baseline -T1 and T2) and during the next 14 days (1º, 3º, 7º, 10 º e 14º days)
