简要总结
Background- Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is a common and painful condition encountered in dental practice, which can greatly impact an individual’s quality of life by altering their dietary habits and oral hygiene practices. Numerous topically applied desensitizers with different modes of action are used in DH management. However, no consensus has been reached on the ideal treatment
Aim- To compare and evaluate effectiveness of Novamin, GC tooth mousse and Gluma desensitizing agent used in combination with diode laser on dentinal hypersensitivity.
Materials and methods- 72 teeth with non carious cervical lesion (NCCLs) complaining of dentinal hypersensitivity will be selected. 72 NCCLs will be randomly distributed into 4 groups (Group A -Diode laser Group B- Novamin with Diode laser, Group C- GC Tooth mousse with diode laser, Group D- Gluma with diode laser) will be assigned different treatment protocol. Before initiating the treatment, patient response of each NCCLs will be checked using Evaporative air test (EAT) and Schiff scale (t0). In Group A Diode laser will be used alone In group B, C and D desensitizing agent will be applied and activated using diode laser for 60s. After completion of treatment effectiveness of the different therapeutic protocols will be evaluated by recording the patient response for each NCCL following the EAT stimulus and the Schiff scale immediately at the end of the treatment (t1) and after 1 week (t2), 1 month(t3), 3 month (t4), 6 month(t5) Statistical analysis will be done using Shapiro – Wilk test and ANOVA test.
