A study to compare the efficacy of a test dentifrice against a control dentifrice in reducing dentinal hypersensitivity over an eight week treatment period.
A study to compare the efficacy of a test dentifrice against a control dentifrice in reducing dentinal hypersensitivity over a two week treatment period.
Ibuprofen has been recognized as anti-inflammatory and analgesic. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ibuprofen 400 mg on tooth sensitivity (TS) caused by in-office bleaching. Methods: 30 health adults who received either placebo or ibuprofen. The drugs were administered 1 hour prior to the bleaching and will be prescribed 5 doses every 8 hours during 48 hours. For bleaching will be used 35% hydrogen peroxide gel. The tooth sensitivity will be recorded for up and lower arc on two scales: VAS (visual analogic scale) and 0-4. The shade evaluation will be performed before and 30 days after bleaching with visual shade guide and spectrophotometer.
Periodontal instrumentation aims to remove plaque and calculus from the root surface. Both manual and ultrasonic instruments have been used for such decontamination; however, establishing a healthy periodontium can result in adverse effects, such as dentin hypersensitivity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of hand or ultrasonic instrumentation on dentin hypersensitivity in patients undergoing non-surgical periodontal treatment. For this controlled clinical trial of a "split mouth" design, 14 patients were selected with homologous teeth in the incisor to premolar region and probing depth ≥ 5 mm on the buccal aspect of the teeth. One side (control) was instrumented with hand instruments and the other side (test) with ultrasonic instruments. Dentin hypersensitivity was assessed in the baseline and during the follow 4 weeks after treatment, with a periodontal probe scratching the root surface and with an air jet. The patient's response was detected by a visual analog scale (VAS) of 10 cm.
The objective of the present study was to compare the effects of a commercially available dentifrice containing 2% strontium chloride and 5% potassium nitrate in a silica base, versus a control dentifrice, containing exactly the same ingredients apart from strontium chloride and potassium nitrate, on the instant and lasting relief of DH.
This study is for people with sensitive teeth and involves going to the dentist for 4 visits over 6 weeks. During the first 2 weeks, you will just brush your teeth two times a day with the fluoride toothpaste provided. Then you will be assigned to a group if you qualify to continue in the study. All groups will get a marketed toothpaste and one group will also get a mouthwash with an experimental ingredient. You will have an equal chance of being assigned to any one of the three groups. For the next 4 weeks, you will brush with your assigned toothpaste and rinse with your assigned mouthwash if assigned to the mouthwash group. A dentist will look at your mouth, teeth, tongue and gums and check for sensitive teeth. The investigators will see if the mouthwash helps to reduce tooth sensitivity during the study.
Perhaps the use of a more selective anti-inflammatory drug, capable of inhibiting enzyme specific for pain may be more effective in preventing the tooth sensitivity caused by the inflammatory response produced by in-office bleaching. To the extent of the authors´ knowledge, no study has so far addressed the use of a selective anti-inflammatory drug specific for pain enzyme on tooth sensitivity, being this the aim of the present investigation.
This study is for people with sensitive teeth and involves going to the dentist for 6 visits over 8 weeks. During the first 2 weeks, everyone will just brush their teeth two times a day with the fluoride toothpaste provided. Then you will be assigned to a mouthwash group if you qualify to continue in the study. Two groups will get mouthwash with a certain amount of an experimental ingredient and one group will get a mouthwash with no experimental ingredients. You will have an equal chance of being assigned to any one of the three groups. For the next 6 weeks, you will rinse with your assigned mouthwash after brushing. A dentist will look at your mouth, teeth, tongue and gums and check for sensitive teeth. The investigators will see if the mouthwash helps to reduce tooth sensitivity during the study.
