Shallow NCCL’s- lesions that had a shallow depth (less than or equal to 0.5 mm) but their breadth and height dimensions were greater than 1.0 mm.These lesions exhibited minimal dentine exposure. Concave NCCL’s- lesions that had a greater depth than 0.5mm. Concave NCCLs did not demonstrate well-defined internal line angle. Instead, the floor of these lesions was continously curved. Generally healthy gum tissue surrounding the tooth (no ulceration or leukoplakia)

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| the primary outcome is the success of the treatment. Success will be measured as reduction in the dentinal hypersensitivity using Visual Analogue scale (VAS) after 1,4 & 8 weeks intervalTimepoint: 2 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary outcome will be patient satisfaction. Patients will complete pain assessment (labelled magnitude scale) treatment questionnaire at baseline & follow-up visits. Four factors will be considered : duration,intensity, tolerability & description)Timepoint: 2 months | — |
