Abstrakt:	Objective: To compare the efficacy, color stability, and tooth sensitivity (TS) of combined bleaching, using a modified protocol with at-home bleaching. Methods: Eighty participants were randomized into two groups. In the combined group, a desensitizing gel was applied (10 minutes) prior to in-office bleaching (35% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), 2×15 minute applications) and at-home bleaching (4% H2O2, 2×30 minutes for 21 days) started the next day. In the at-home group, only the at-home bleaching was performed. Color was recorded at the beginning and postbleaching with two scales (VITA Classical and Bleachedguide) and Easyshade spectrophotometer. The TS was recorded daily with a 0-10 visual analogue scale (VAS) and five-point numeric rating scale (NRS). Results: A 40% lower risk (RR=1.4; 95% CI 1.1-1.9) was observed in the at-home group. Higher color change and intensity of TS [mean difference 2.3 (95% CI 1.3-3.3) in the VAS] was observed in the first week for the combined group. After the end of the protocol, a bleaching degree was detected for both groups, with no significant difference between both groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: The combined group produced a slightly higher degree of color change than at-home bleaching but with a higher risk and intensity of TS. (©Operative Dentistry, 2022.)
