Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a self etch adhesive resin and two desensitizing agents(Calcium phosphate, 5% glutaraldehyde) in treatment of dentin hypersensitivity on the quality of life of individuals.

Detailed description

This in-vivo study was done among 69 participants who reported at least one sensitivite tooth(Schiff Sensitivity Score \>1) as a result of the clinical examination. Participants were randomly divided into three treatment groups(n=23): I. Tetracalcium phosphate and dicalcium phosphate containing desensitizer (Teethmate Desensitizer) II. %35 hydroxyethyl methacrylate and %5 glutaraldehyde containing desensitizer (Gluma Desensitizer) III. Self-etch adhesive resin (Hybrid Bond) These materials used in treatment of dentin hypersensitivity in 6 months clinical follow-up and the effects on the quality of life of individuals were evaluated with Dentine Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire (DHEQ).

Conditions

• Dentin Hypersensitivity

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Teethmate Desensitizer	Powder and liquid contained in the material were mixed. It was applied to the buccal surface of the sensitive tooth. then it was washed away from the tooth surface. 1-4 sessions were applied until the sensitivity disappeared.
OTHER	Gluma Desensitizer	The material was applied to the buccal surface of the tooth with sensitivity. It was washed with water and removed from the tooth surface. 1-4 sessions were applied until the sensitivity disappeared.
OTHER	Hybrid Bond	It was applied to the buccal surface of the sensitive tooth with an applicator. It was cured with a LED light device. Dentin sensitivity was checked with evaporative air application. The process was repeated until the sensitivity disappeared.
