Summary
This study tested whether a toothpaste with stannous fluoride can reduce tooth sensitivity in 177 Chinese adults aged 18 to 70. Participants brushed twice daily for 8 weeks, and researchers measured pain response to air and touch. The goal was to see if the special toothpaste works better than regular fluoride toothpaste for easing discomfort.
