DENTIN HYPERSENSITIVITY

This study tested a gel called KH001 to see if it can provide long-term relief from tooth sensitivity (pain from hot, cold, or air). About 120 adults with sensitive teeth received three applications of the gel or a placebo. Researchers measured pain levels using standard sensitiv…

This study looked at ways to reduce tooth sensitivity after deep cleaning for gum disease. 48 adults with sensitive teeth received either a desensitizing gel (Gluma), a special laser, or both. Their pain was measured over 6 months. The goal was to see if combining treatments work…

This study compared a toothpaste with 5% potassium nitrate to a regular cavity-protection toothpaste for reducing tooth sensitivity. Eighty adults with sensitive teeth used one of the toothpastes for eight weeks. The main goal was to see if the potassium nitrate toothpaste provid…

This study tested whether adding a diode laser to a desensitizing gel (potassium nitrate) provides extra relief for people with sensitive teeth. Twenty-three adults received either the gel plus active laser or gel plus a sham (inactive) laser. Pain and quality of life were measur…

This study tested whether a foam mouth sanitizer that works as both toothpaste and mouthwash can whiten teeth and reduce tooth sensitivity. 57 adults with mild to moderate staining and sensitivity used the product or a comparison toothpaste three times daily for 8 weeks. Research…

This study tested whether a desensitizing toothpaste, used alone or with a mouthwash, can reduce tooth sensitivity in adults. 71 participants used the products daily for 14 days. Researchers measured changes in sensitivity to see if the toothpaste worked better than regular tooth…

This study tested two treatments for tooth sensitivity: a special varnish and an air-polishing system. Thirty adults with sensitive teeth were treated, and researchers measured pain relief and any tooth color changes. The goal was to find which method works better for easing disc…

This study tested if a dental adhesive called Single Bond Universal can reduce tooth sensitivity in adults. Fourteen participants with sensitive teeth received either the new coating or a standard desensitizer. They were followed for a year to see which treatment worked better an…

This study looked at whether using a special laser (diode laser) after a common dental procedure called direct pulp capping can help reduce pain and tooth sensitivity. Fifty-six people with tooth decay that reached the nerve were treated. Half got standard care, and half got stan…

This study tested two experimental toothpastes to see if they can whiten teeth and reduce tooth sensitivity. 254 adults with sensitive teeth used the toothpastes for 8 weeks. Researchers measured tooth color, stain levels, and sensitivity at several checkpoints to see if the toot…

This study tested whether Gluma, bioactive glass, or a mix of both could reduce tooth sensitivity better than standard fluoride varnish. Forty adults with sensitive teeth were treated and followed for six months. The goal was to see which approach provided the most lasting relief…

This study tested whether a new bioactive gel that helps rebuild tooth minerals works better than standard fluoride varnish for reducing tooth sensitivity. Thirty adults with sensitive teeth were treated and followed for 6 months. The goal was to find a more effective way to ease…

This study tested a French version of a questionnaire called DHEQ, which measures how tooth sensitivity (sharp pain from cold or touch) affects quality of life. Researchers enrolled 216 adults across three centers in France, including people with different levels of sensitivity a…
