The Effects of Different Dentin Hypersensitivity Treatment Methods on Quality of Life
- Conditions
- Dentin Hypersensitivity
- Interventions
- Other: Teethmate DesensitizerOther: Gluma DesensitizerOther: Hybrid Bond
- Registration Number
- NCT04887181
- Lead Sponsor
- Kırıkkale University
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a self etch adhesive resin and two desensitizing agents(Calcium phosphate, 5% glutaraldehyde) in treatment of dentin hypersensitivity on the quality of life of individuals.
- Detailed Description
This in-vivo study was done among 69 participants who reported at least one sensitivite tooth(Schiff Sensitivity Score \>1) as a result of the clinical examination. Participants were randomly divided into three treatment groups(n=23):
I. Tetracalcium phosphate and dicalcium phosphate containing desensitizer (Teethmate Desensitizer) II. %35 hydroxyethyl methacrylate and %5 glutaraldehyde containing desensitizer (Gluma Desensitizer) III. Self-etch adhesive resin (Hybrid Bond) These materials used in treatment of dentin hypersensitivity in 6 months clinical follow-up and the effects on the quality of life of individuals were evaluated with Dentine Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire (DHEQ).

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale Scores Before treatment, immediately after treatment, 1 week, 1 month, 3 month and 6 month Average scores based on Schiff cold air sensitivity scale after evaporative air application. The Schiff score ranges from 0 to 3. Minimum value is 0, maximum value is 3. An increase in the score from 0 to 3 indicates an increase in sensitivity.
Visual Analog Scale(VAS) Scores Before treatment, immediately after treatment, 1 week, 1 month, 3 month and 6 month Average scores based on Visual Analog Scale(VAS) after applying evaporative air. The VAS score ranges from 0 to 10. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 10. A score of 0 is defined as "no pain" while a score of 10 is defined as "intolerable pain".
Dentin Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire (DHEQ) scores Change from baseline quality of life at 6 months Data obtained after individuals complete the Dentin Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire. The decrease in the measured scores over time indicates that the quality of life has improved.
