Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The sensitivity of the tooth after the cold test by using the Visual analog scale. Timepoint: baseline measurement before filling teeth, one day,two week and One month after treatment. Method of measurement: To do a cold test, a swab sprayed with cold spray and placed in the center of the teeth for 5 seconds. The patient is then asked to select 0 to 10 numbers by Visual Analogue Scale to report the severity of pain, so that he will score 10 for the most pain and choose 0 for no pain.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Tooth sensitivity to different stimuli. Timepoint: baseline measurement before filling teeth, one day, two week and One month after treatment. Method of measurement: Questionnaire-The patient responds yes or no to questions about tooth susceptibility with heat and cold and sweet dishes.
