The aim of this study is to describe the vital teeth bleaching combining both in-office and at-home techniques. The office bleaching technique was performed in a one clinical session, with the completion of three applications and consecutively the home bleaching technique was performed for two weeks. Hydrogen peroxide gel at 35% for office bleaching was applied associated with carbamide peroxide at 10% for the home procedure. We conclude that the association of bleaching techniques proved to be an excellent aesthetic choice for teeth that have changed chromatically.
