- Target Recruitment
- 60
- Patients who can go to the hospital during the study period
- Patients at least 20 years of age at enrolment date
- Patients providing the written informed consent
- In addition to the above, the selection criteria for each disease and the tooth to be examined are defined below "Caries" Patients who can be diagnosed as having caries localized in the enamel or dentin by inspection and X-ray examination, and which can be preserved and repaired by resin filling. The target is premolar or molar, and class1 cavity. "Hypersensitivity" Patients diagnosed with dentin hypersensitivity which can be confirmed by induced pain "Discolored teeth" Patients with a desire to whiten teeth Patients with a desire to give their teeth a gloss Patients providing informed consent for color change to sample color after treatment, and that the color tone of the contact point, lower solid void, and cervical region may not change. Up to three consecutive teeth shall be treated
- Patients with oral mucosal disease
- Patients with uncontrolled underlying disease
- Patients who are lactating, pregnant, or intending to become pregnant
- Patients who have pain caused by other disease and are taking drugs with analgesic effect
- Patients who are otherwise considered ineligible for enrolling in the study by the principal investigator

Name Time Method Caries_spontaneous_and_induced_pain Evaluate spontaneous pain in daily life and induced pain.
Hypersensitivity_reduction_of_pain Evaluate the reduction of spontaneous pain in daily life and induced pain.
Hypersensitivity_gingiva_damage Evaluate the damage in the gingiva.
Discolored_teeth_color_tone_sensory Evaluate the change in color tone by sensory evaluation.
Discolored_teeth_color_tone_spectrophotometer Evaluate the change in color tone with a spectrophotometer.

- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Caries Evaluate the efficiency of hydroxyapatite layer formation in the tooth cavity after caries removal and the feeling of usability by the operator.
Hypersensitivity Evaluate the efficiency hydroxyapatite layer formation on the tooth surface with exposed dentin or wedge-shaped defects and the feeling of usability by the operator.
Discolored teeth Evaluate the efficiency of forming a hydroxyapatite layer on the teeth, including at the cervical region, the lower solid void, and the contact point with the adjacent tooth and usability by the operator.
