NCT04896294

Brief Summary

This will be a double-blind, randomized, three-arm parallel groups study of the effect of toothpastes containing Ca-hydroxyapatite (HAP), Mg-Zn-hydroxyapatite (Zn-Mg-HAP), or fluoroapatite (FAP). The aim of the study is to compare the effect of toothpastes containing Ca-hydroxyapatite (HAP), fluoroapatite (FAP), and Mg-Zn-hydroxyapatite (Mg-Zn-HAP) on dentin hypersensitivity associated with dental abrasion. Materials and methods. Thirty consent patients aged 35-45 with dentin hypersensitivity associated with abrasion will be recruited for the study. The study will have 2 phases: preparatory phase (recruitment of the patients, standardization of their oral hygiene protocols, wash-out period, calibration of the researchers and training) and the main part (double-blind, randomized, parallel groups study of toothpastes effect). Patients will be randomly divided into 3 groups (group 1 - toothpastes with Ca-HAP, group 2 - toothpastes with Zn-Mg-HAP, group 3 - toothpastes with FAP). Clinical examination will be performed at the baseline, after 2 and 4 weeks, and will include patient's interview, oral hygiene level assessment (OHI-S), and dentin sensitivity testing (Shiff's index). The null hypothesis is that there will be no statistically significant differences in dentin sensitivity level between the study groups.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • change in dentin hypersensitivity score according to Shiff's index

    Air from air/water syringe is applied perpendicular to the cervical areas of the tooth from a distance of 1 cm for a second. Enamel sensitivity is estimated in accordance with the following criteria: 0 - no reaction, 1. \- discomfort but the patient does not insist on stopping the test, 2. \- discomfort, accompanied by a request to discontinue the test, 3. \- severe pain reaction with pronounced motor reactions aimed at the immediate termination of the test.

Eligibility Criteria

Age35 Years - 45 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • aged between 35 and 45 years
  • signed an approved Informed Consent Form, authorizing the participation in the trial and the use of the results of the trial for educational purposes and for the publication
  • the diagnosis of dentin hypersensitivity stated clinically
  • a premolar or first molar with an abrasive cervical defect of at least 1 millimeter, and not deeper than 1.5 millimeter, as measured by placing a periodontal probe into the deepest part of the cervical lesion; no mesial, distal or buccal restorations (to avoid confounding hypersensitivity)
  • a hypersensitivity score of 2 or higher on the Shiff scale with standardized air-blast stimulation
  • no other tooth in the same quadrant exhibiting hypersensitivity

You may not qualify if:

  • medical and pharmacotherapeutic histories that may compromise the protocol (pregnancy or breastfeeding, allergies to toothpastes ingredients, eating disorders)
  • systemic conditions that are etiologic to dentin hypersensitivity (e.g., chronic acid regurgitation)
  • excessive dietary or environmental exposure to acids
  • periodontal surgery in the preceding 3 months
  • orthodontic appliance treatment within previous 3 months
  • teeth or supporting structures with any other painful pathology or defects
  • teeth restored in the preceding 3 months
  • abutment teeth for fixed or removable prostheses
  • extensively restored teeth and those with restorations extending into the test area.
