Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
The efficacy of three desensitizing agents used to treat dentin hypersensitivity.
In a single-center, double-masked, split-mouth-designed, clinical short-term trial, the authors assessed the clinical responses of teeth with dentin hypersensitivity (DH) after treating the teeth with one of three desensitizing agents across four weeks. ⋯ The study results should be considered with caution, as it is not clear how many of the pain relief effects were related to the natural desensitization of teeth over time.
