Laser zaps tooth pain: new study offers hope for sensitive teeth
NCT ID NCT07431736
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether laser therapy, a remineralizing paste called Remin Pro, or both together can reduce pain from sensitive teeth. Twenty-five adults with at least four sensitive teeth received one of the treatments and reported their pain levels over 12 months. The goal was to find a simple, effective way to ease tooth discomfort.
