Male and female patients who agreed to participate and provide written consent for the study
Age group - 20-50 years
Participant who have at least one non-carious cervical lesion (NCCL’s) i.e. incisor, cuspid or premolar with a buccal cervical defect and clinical hypersensitivity in response of minimum 2 on a visual analogue scale (VAS).
Shallow NCCL’s- lesions that had a shallow depth (less than or equal to 0.5 mm) but their breadth and height dimensions were greater than 1.0 mm.These lesions exhibited minimal dentine exposure.
Concave NCCL’s- lesions that had a greater depth than 0.5mm. Concave NCCLs did not demonstrate well-defined internal line angle. Instead, the floor of these lesions was continously curved.
Generally healthy gum tissue surrounding the tooth (no ulceration or leukoplakia)
Any subject that does not fall under the inclusion criteria were excluded
Using any desensitizing agent within one month
Pharmacotherapeutic histories that may compromise the protocol - including the chronic use of anti-inflammatory, analgesic and mind-altering drugs
Pregnant or lactating
Periodontal surgery in the preceding 3 months

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method the primary outcome is the success of the treatment. Success will be measured as reduction in the dentinal hypersensitivity using Visual Analogue scale (VAS) after 1,4 & 8 weeks intervalTimepoint: 2 months
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The secondary outcome will be patient satisfaction. <br/ ><br>Patients will complete pain assessment (labelled magnitude scale) treatment questionnaire at baseline & follow-up visits. <br/ ><br>Four factors will be considered : duration,intensity, tolerability & description)Timepoint: 2 months
