Novel treatment of in ‐office tooth bleaching sensitivity: A randomized, placebo‐controlled clinical study

ConclusionsPrebleaching desensitization with TAP was effective in reducing BS during and after tooth whitening treatment and had no adverse effect on the bleaching result.
Clinical significancePrebleaching topical application of a calcium phosphate containing compound reduced significantly bleaching sensitivity during a single 15 minutes treatment and up to one week with a 40% hydrogen peroxide containing gel without compromising tooth whitening.
