"It was postulated that the ability of the dentifrice containing 8% arginine, calcium carbonate, and fluoride to precipitate mineral at the tooth surface, as well as provide the ability to occlude dentin tubules, might also provide protection from enamel erosion. This powerful combination of the ability to treat dentin hypersensitivity by blocking dentin tubules, combined with an ability to pre...

INTRODUCTION Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is a painful tooth condition affecting a large proportion of the world population. While DH is not a direct cause of tooth loss, it does cause discomfort and stress. DH treatment methods include desensitizers, such as fluoride compounds; polycyanoacrylate coating; low intensity laser therapy; and surgery as a last resort. In Cuba, a fluoride varnish, Pr...

Dentin hypersensitivity or sensitive teeth is one of the most disturbing diseases caused by opening dentinal tubules which can transmit fluid to pulp nerves tooth, so that patient feel a short and sharp pain when exposed triggering agents. This cause physical psychological problems for patient. In addition, it have negative impact on person's quality life, especially regarding food selection, p...

Aesthetic concerns and functional abnormalities, such as dentin hypersensitivity, are often associated with gingival recession defects. Root coverage procedures aim to restore both gingival aesthetics and function in recession defects. The coronally positioned flap combined with the subepithelial connective tissue graft is one of the most widely used root coverage procedures. The present report...

Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is a painful response to stimulus applied to the open dentinal tubules of a vital tooth. It's a common oral condition, however, without an ideal treatment available yet. This work evaluated in vitro the effect of micron-sized particles from a novel bioactive glass-ceramic (Biosilicate) in occluding open dentinal tubules. A dentin disc model was employed to observe c...

The aim was to state the different applications and effectiveness of polymeric zinc-doped nanoparticles achieve dentin remineralization. Literature search conducted using electronic databases, such as PubMed, MEDLINE, DIMDI, Embase, Scopus Web Science. A narrative exploratory review undertaken. Polymeric nanospheres (NPs) were efficiently loaded with zinc. NPs sequestered calcium phosphate in p...

introduction: to investigate the ultrastructural changes of dentin irradiated with 980-nm diode laser under different parameters and to observe the morphological alterations of odontoblasts and pulp tissue to determine the safety parameters of 980-nm diode laser in the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity (dh). methods: twenty extracted human third molars were selected to prepare dentin discs. ...

Context Eroded dentin might present the opening of dentinal tubules, increasing permeability, and consequently dentinal hypersensitivity. Aims This study evaluated the permeability of dentin surfaces exposed to different levels of erosion and methods of surface protection. Materials and Methods Dentine samples (3 mm × 3 mm × 1 mm) were prepared from bovine incisors (n = 90) and divided into...
