Summary

This study tested whether a toothpaste with NovaMin (Sensodyne Repair and Protect) can reduce tooth sensitivity during and after teeth bleaching. 90 adults used either the test toothpaste, a standard fluoride toothpaste, or another sensitivity toothpaste. Participants rated their sensitivity daily. The goal was to see if the test toothpaste works better than the others for comfort during whitening.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Sensodyne Repair and Protect toothpaste (contains NovaMin and fluoride)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a more effective toothpaste for people who get tooth sensitivity during whitening treatments.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed Phase 4 study. Results may not apply to everyone, and the effect may be modest. Tooth sensitivity varies a lot between people.
