“…DH is a ver y com mon pain ful condition characterized by acute pain. 20,21 The present study seems to be pioneer, since there is no previous study with the specific aim of measuring sensibility and specificity of pain scales for DH assessment. The scales used herein were shown to be accurate and sensitive, and should be used in further DH studies.…”

“…The effect of different factors on the prevalence of this problem has been previously studied. (13)(14)(15) Among the factors that cause dentin exposure and possible DH, dental wear (erosion) can be mentioned. In addition, the loss of periodontal tissues covering the teeth and loss of cement due to aging and periodontal disease can cause DH.…”

Background and Aim: Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is one of the most common problems in dentistry. Several factors affect DH. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of this problem and identify the associated factors. Materials and Methods: : In this cross-sectional study, 300 patients who referred to the operative dentistry department of Islamic Azad University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran, were examined. Demographic information and other related factors were recorded using a questionnaire. One examiner then examined the subjects regarding the potential related clinical factors. DH was evaluated using evaporative and tactile tests and was categorized using the visual analog scale (VAS). Descriptive data were presented as frequency and mean. Chi-Square test was used to examine the related factors at the significance level of 0.05. Result: The overall prevalence of DH was 21%. The correlation of horizontal brushing technique (P<0.005), hard toothbrushes (P<0.0001), gingival recession (P<0.0001), history of gingival surgery (P<0.001), tooth wear (P<0.001), traumatic occlusion (P<0.005), and bleaching toothpastes (P<0.005) with DH prevalence was significant. Conclusion: According to the results, high awareness about DH and its associated factors is mandatory.

“…The population was people from 30 to 49 years old. The sample size calculation was based on the prevalence of oral health impact (15.9%), NCCL (69%), and DH (88.7%) according to previous studies [ 1 , 49 , 50 ]. The formula for estimating a proportion for finite populations n = [EDFF∗N∗p (1-p)]/[(d 2 /Z 2 1-α/2 ∗(N-1)+p∗(1-p)] was used, where EDFF is the design effect (1.2), N is the finite population (N = 2716 adults), p is the prevalence of the evaluated condition, α is the selected level of significance (95%), Z 1-α/2 is the value from the standard normal distribution holding 1- α/2 below it (Z = 1.96), and d is the margin of error (7%).…”

Objectives To assess the association between dentin hypersensitivity (DH) (with or without non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL)) and physical and psychosocial oral health impact. Methods A cross-sectional population-based study with one-stage random sample of adults living in a Brazilian municipally was conducted between 2018 and 2019. Interviews and oral examinations were performed by calibrated examiners (Kappa ≥0.7). The participant was considered as having physical and psychosocial impact if at least one item of the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) was experienced fairly often or very often. NCCL was assessed by the Tooth Wear Index (codes 2 to 4) and DH was evaluated by a tactile test with a probe in the cervical area of teeth. The combination of these clinical variables resulted in categories of the independent variable: without DH or NCCL, NCCL without DH, DH without NCCL, and both DH with NCCL. The covariables were sociodemographic and economic factors, health habits, and oral conditions. Associations were investigated by Poisson Regression models using Direct Acyclic Graph (Stata 17). Results Of 197 adults, 59.3% had oral health impact and 31.3% had DH with NCCL. Higher frequency of oral health impact was observed in adults with DH alone. A higher impact on the physical pain dimension of the OHIP-14 was observed in adults with DH and NCCL (PR: 2.46; 95% CI: 1.21–5.00) and with DH alone (PR: 2.03; 95% CI: 1.21–3.41). Conclusion NCCL and DH are common conditions in adults and the presence of DH is associated with higher oral health impact. Regardless the presence of NCCL, DH is associated with the physical pain dimension of OHRQoL.
