The objective of this double blind, randomized and controlled clinical study, was to evaluate the efficacy of potassium nitrate / sodium fluoride (KNO3 / KF) gel associated with LLLT (Low Level Light Therapy) on teeth that were exposed to 35% hydrogen peroxide during 3 weeks of bleaching treatment. Methods: 50 volunteers were evaluated through the split-mouth model, where the hemiarcates were randomized and later allocated in one of the experimental groups: G1 (negative control)- group with no desensitizing treatment, only bleached; G2 (positive control)- group treated with LLLT + placebo gel; G3- group treated with placebo laser application + 5% KNO3 / 2% KF gel; and G4- group treated with LLLT + 5% KNO3 / 2% KF gel.
