“…The test was carried out using an air syringe with direct air pressure for one second (Siemens, Sirona, at 60 psi, from 198C to 248C and with an air flow of about 2 mm diameter) applied perpendicularly, 1 cm from the tooth's surface. 11,[15][16][17] Dentin sensitivity was scored using a VAS. Patients quantified responses to the air stimulus by placing a mark on a 100-mmlength line anchored by word descriptors at each end: no pain at the left end and very severe pain at the right end.…”

Oxalic acid may offer a novel approach to improve the reduction of dentin postoperative sensitivity after placement of resin-bonded restorations. SUMMARYThe aim of this double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the reduction of dentin sensitivity using an oxalatebased compound, placed under adhesive restorations, during a four-month period. One hundred three preoperatively sensitive teeth, on 36 patients aged 25 to 66 years (mean, 40.367), were included in the study. Group A (experimental) was treated with oxalic acid (BisBlock) before resin-based composite (RBC) restorations (n¼52), and group B (control) was treated with distilled water before RBC restorations (n¼51). The first tooth in each patient was randomly assigned to group A, and the second tooth received group B. Clinical evaluation was made by a thermal/ evaporation test with an air syringe and measurement by visual analog scale (VAS) at baseline and four months after treatment. The results showed sensitivity reduction during the evaluation period (expressed in VAS values): group A, 7.6 to 0.8; group B, 7.3 to 2.6. We concluded from this study that both treatments reduced dentin sensitivity during the

“…The systems incorporating the primer and adhesive components together produce a thicker film and have been used with success [85]. A well-controlled study by Ide et al [86] using another commercially available system again gave good efficacy, the surface not being etched prior to application of material. The latest hydrophilic bonding systems are designed to provide a better bond in a wet environment.…”

Dentine hypersensitivity is a common oral complaint, affecting the teeth of many individuals. The aetiology is multifactorial; however, over recent years the role of erosion has become more and more important. For dentine hypersensitivity to occur, the lesion must first be localised on the tooth surface and then initiated to exposed dentine tubules which are patent to the pulp. The short, sharp pain symptoms are thought to be derived from the hydrodynamic theory of pain. This episodic pain condition is likely to become a more frequent dental complaint in the future due to the increase in longevity of the dentition and the rise in tooth wear. However, conclusive evidence of successful treatment regimens still eludes us despite a multitude of products available for treatment. In explanation, pain studies are notoriously difficult to conduct due to the subjective nature of pain and the complexity of pain assessment. The basic principles of treatment are altering fluid flow in the dentinal tubules with tubule occlusion or modifying or blocking pulpal nerve response, chemically with agents like potassium or physically.

“…A study was planned with the aim of investigating the reproducibility of the most common protocols for unidimensional measurement of levels of dentine hypersensitivity on single teeth over two weeks, with a view to assessing their suitability for longitudinal clinical studies. In addition to air blast and tactile stimuli, newly developed controlled air and cold fluid stimuli ( Ide et al 1998) were investigated. This study also included a measure of the number of teeth sensitive to air blast, and the results prompted a second study to investigate the reproducibility of the number of hypersensitive teeth per patient, using air, cold fluid and tactile stimuli.…”

Background: Many agents and toothpaste formulations have been proposed for treatment of dentine hypersensitivity. However, studies have reported equivocal or contradictory results, potentially related to a lack of clinical efficacy for agents being tested, poor study design or the use of assessment techniques which are unable to distinguish longitudinal changes in dentine hypersensitivity. Aim: To investigate the reproducibility of commonly used measurement protocols for dentine hypersensitivity on single or multiple teeth. In addition, newly‐developed controlled air and cold fluid stimuli were investigated. Methods and Materials: Standardised pain stimulation techniques were used in 2 investigations with 63 and 42 subjects, respectively. The reproducibility of perceived hypersensitivity before and following stimulation was recorded over time periods of 14 and 2 days, respectively, using visual analogue scales and threshold techniques. Results: Subject demographics resembled those reported in other hypersensitivity investigations. Analysis using several measures of reproducibility indicated that subject‐based reproducibility was limited, even when the stimuli were standardised. However, the data are consistent with the findings of investigations on pain assessment in other fields. Conclusions: The reproducibility of subjects in clinical trials of dentine hypersensitivity may therefore contribute to difficulties in establishing treatment efficacy of agents in clinical trials.
