First seen Aug 17, 2026 · Last updated Aug 17, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a toothpaste designed for sensitive teeth can also improve oral hygiene and gum health in people with dentine hypersensitivity. Participants will use the toothpaste over time, and researchers will measure changes in tooth sensitivity, plaque buildup, and gum condition. The goal is to see if managing sensitivity leads to better overall oral health.
