Preventive dentistry 3. Prevalence, aetiology and diagnosis of dentine (hyper)sensitivity

Abstract: InleidingDentine-overgevoeligheid ofwel tandhalsgevoeligheid (zie intermezzo 1), is een onderwerp dat door de komst van nieuwe producten (zoals desensibiliserende tandpasta's, mondspoel-en applicatiemiddelen) de laatste tijd meer aandacht krijgt. In de wetenschappelijke literatuur zijn een aantal systematische literatuuroverzichten en themanummers verschenen die het probleem van tandhalsgevoeligheid beschrijven en uitleg geven over de recente ontwikkelingen in preventieve strategieën. In dit artikel wordt deze… Show more

“…Dentine hypersensitivity (DH), the short sharp pain experienced in response to triggers such as cold air or pressure is common in adults [1]. While a wide range of prevalence figures have been reported (1.34% -98%) [1], figures obtained from general adult populations have indicated that 27% of adults in Europe suffer from DH [2]with similar figures reported following clinical exam in Xi'an city, China (25.5%) [3], and Andhra Pradesh, India (32%) [4]. DH has a negative impact on oral health related quality of life (OHQoL) [5,6], with treatment of DH demonstrated to improve OHQoL scores [7].…”

“…Desensitizing toothpastes operate by an occlusion mechanism and cause varying degrees of dentin tubule occlusion and dentin mineralization, often after just a few days of usage. However, the occlusion may be partially reduced after acid exposure, leading to re-opening of the dentinal tubules ( van der Weijden et al, 2017a , van der Weijden et al, 2017b ). To avoid this happening, patients need to regularly use desensitizing toothpastes and other agents (rinses, gels, etc.).…”

“…It is affecting more than 40% of adults worldwide and more than 40 million people in the USA [4]. In Europe, an average of 27% of the population suffers from dentine hypersensitivity [5], and some studies have reported prevalence levels as high as 68% [6]. Some studies have reported that premolars are the most commonly affected by dentin hypersensitivity [7], while the cervical area of the teeth is the most common site [8].…”
