Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients of both sexes, between 18 and 70 years old; presence of at least two teeth with dentin hypersensitivity; presence of at least one tooth with an Analog Visual Scale score above 5 cm; presence of exposed dentin in the cervical dental region; with at least two hemiarches affected by hypersensitivity condition; probing depth up to 3 mm; Analog Visual Scale sensitivity value greater than or equal to 4 cm
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Dental elements covered by prosthetic work or endodontically treated; patients in constant use or with medical history marked by chronic use of analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs and psychotropic drugs; patients with orthodontic appliances; patients who have used desensitizers in the last three months; patient who underwent sensitive element restorative treatment for less than a month
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: Evaluate three different protocols for the treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity. In this assessment, the patient will demonstrate the degree of their pain through a tactile test and controlled stimulation with air jets (evaporative stimulus), using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Reassessments will occur after the application of the material and at 7, 30, 60 days, and 1 year.;Observed outcome: The selected protocols were applied and their effectiveness in reducing and/or eliminating dentinal hypersensitivity was verified. The effectiveness of the three protocols was compared by observing the progression of pain immediately after applying the study material and at 7, 30, 60 days, and 1 year. For pain assessment, the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used with measures from 0 to 10 cm, where the volunteer indicates their pain intensity, with 0 representing "no pain" and 10 "unbearable pain." On the back of the scale, a 10 cm millimeter ruler was attached to EVA, not visible to the patient. The stimulus consisted of applying a cold air jet from the triple syringe of the dental equipment (60 psi), free of oil and water, for 2 seconds, at a distance of 1 cm and perpendicular to the surface of the exposed dentin, controlled and standardized by a plastic device attached to the triple syringe. | — |
