Does Menstrual Cycle Influence Sensitivity of Sound Tooth? Menstrual Siklus Sağlıklı Dişin Duyarlılığını
نویسنده
چکیده
Amaç: Bu çalışmada menstrual siklusun sağlıklı pulpa duyarlılığına etkisi araştırıldı. Objective: In this study, effect of menstrual cycle on healthy pulp sensitivity was investigated. Materials and methods: Pulpal sensitivity was assessed with electric pulp tester (EPT). The study was performed on 13 dental students without dysmenorrhea (49 teeth). Recordings were taken on four phases of the cycle (menstrual, follicular, luteal, premenstrual). Results: Statistically, the outcomes were not significantly different across menstrual cycle (p> 0.05). Conclusion: Menstrual cycle has no impact on pulpal sensitivity of sound teeth as measured by EPT.
