简要总结
The perplexing problem of dentin hypersensitivity (DH) has long bemused the dental profession. It is one domain where the elusive “gold standards†for its management has not yet been achieved.
Difficulties in the treatment of the DH gave rise to many protocols and therapeutic procedures which are currently being used for the improvement of DH treatment.
NaF (Sodium Flouride) Iontophoresis a method where fluoride is transferred deep into the dentinal tubules under electrical pressure. This causes calcium fluoride precipitation, which decreases fluid movement induced by stimuli, reducing dentin hypersensitivity.
Use of Laser provides an innovative and quicker treatment which results in minimal side effects and safe for the patients. Laser stimulates the odontoblasts, produces reparatory irregular dentin and obliterates the dentinal tubules which reduces the dentinal hypersensitivity. Diode Laser has specific wavelengths (655 nm to 980 nm) resulting safe for the patient and causing minimum side effects or damage to the pulp, compared to powerful systems such as Er, Cr:YSGG or Er: YAG lasers.
Thus, the aim this study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of diode laser and Iontophoresis with 2% NaF gel in the treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity.
