          Abstract

          The aim of the study was to evaluate dentinal tubule occlusion, measuring the dentin permeability (Lp) and using different desensitizing agents before and after abrasive/erosive challenge. Dentin discs from 42 healthy human third molars were obtained. Minimum Lp was measured after a smear layer simulation using #600 SiC paper and maximum Lp after an immersion in 0.5 M EDTA. The specimens were treated with different desensitizers: two varnishes (Clinpro XT Varnish-CV, Fluor Protector-FP), a paste (Desensibilize Nano P-NP) and a gel (Oxa Gel-OG). The Lp of each specimen was measured immediately after the desensitizers’ application. The discs were subjected to erosion/abrasion cycles for 7 days, with 0.5% citric acid solution (6x/day) and tooth brushing (3x/day). Lp was measured after the first, fourth and seventh day of the challenge. The data were analyzed by 3-way ANOVA with repeated measurements and by a Games-Howell test (α=5%). FP and CV did not show significant differences in Lp immediately after application until the 7th day (p<0.05). OG showed a significant increase in Lp after the 4th and 7th days. NP resulted in a significantly higher permeability compared to the other materials immediately after the application and after the 1st day of challenge. All the desensitizers reduced the dentin permeability immediately after application. However, only the varnishes were able to maintain the occlusive effect after the erosion/abrasion challenge.

          Resumo O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a permeabilidade da dentina (Lp) usando diferentes agentes dessensibilizantes antes e depois de um desafio abrasivo/erosivo. Discos de dentina foram obtidos a partir 42 terceiros molares humanos. Lp mínima foi medida após uma simulação de smear layer usando lixa de SiC # 600 e a Lp máxima foi medida após imersão em EDTA 0,5 M. As amostras foram tratadas com diferentes dessensibilizantes: dois vernizes (Fluor Protector-FP, Clinpro XT Varnish-CV), uma pasta (Desensibilize Nano P-NP) e um gel (Oxa Gel-OG). A Lp de cada amostra foi medida imediatamente após a aplicação dos dessensibilizantes. Os discos foram submetidos a um ciclo de erosão/abrasão durante 7 dias, com uma solução de 0,5% de ácido cítrico (6x/dia) e escovação (3x/dia). Lp foi medida do primeiro ao sétimo dia do desafio. Os dados foram analisados por ANOVA a 3 critérios com medidas repetidas e teste de Games-Howell (α=5%). FP e CV demonstraram Lp semelhante imediatamente depois da aplicação até 7 dias (p<0,05). OG apresentou um aumento significativo na Lp depois do 4º e 7º dias. NP resultou numa permeabilidade significativamente mais elevada comparada com a dos outros materiais imediatamente após a aplicação e após o primeiro dia de desafio. Todos os dessensibilizantes reduziram a permeabilidade da dentina imediatamente após a aplicação. No entanto, apenas os vernizes foram capazes de manter o efeito oclusivo após o desafio da erosão/abrasão.

          Treating cervical dentin hypersensitivity with fluoride varnish: a randomized clinical study.

          This subject-blind randomized clinical trial tested the efficacy of a new 5 percent sodium fluoride varnish (AllSolutions Fluoride Varnish, Dentsply Professional, York, Pa.) for treatment of cervical dentin hypersensitivity. The authors also compared the test varnish with a control fluoride varnish (Duraphat, Colgate Oral Pharmaceuticals, New York City). The study involved application of the test or control varnish to 19 subjects (59 teeth) with tooth sensitivity. The authors applied each product once to each tooth, following manufacturers' instructions. They used a visual analog scale (VAS) to assess subjects' responses to compressed air and ice stimuli at six weeks before baseline, at baseline and at two, eight and 24 weeks after treatment. Mean VAS scores for teeth receiving the test varnish dropped from 34.9 (air) and 68.0 (ice) at baseline to 26.3 (air) and 54.7 (ice) at two weeks after treatment. Mean scores at 24 weeks were 20.6 (air) and 34.8 (ice), representing statistically significant differences from baseline values. For the control varnish, mean VAS scores dropped from 36.9 (air) and 64.2 (ice) at baseline to 32.9 (air) and 47.2 (ice) at two weeks, and to 20.8 (air) and 40.3 (ice) at 24 weeks. The authors analyzed the data for statistical significance, accounting for clustering of teeth within subjects. The test varnish was effective in reducing cervical dentin hypersensitivity. However, the efficacy was not significantly different from that of the control varnish.

              Dentinal hypersensitivity following scaling and root planing: comparison of low-level laser and topical fluoride treatment.

              The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of low-level laser irradiation to traditional topical fluoride treatment for treatment choices of dentinal hypersensitivity following scaling and root planing. The experimental group (15 patients) was treated with low-energy-level diode laser at each site of dentinal hypersensitivity following scaling and root planning. The control group (15 patients) received topical fluoride treatment (protective varnish for desensitization). All the patients were treated at baseline visit, and then at day 2 and 4 after the initial treatment; the pain was subjectively assessed by the patients as strong, medium, medium low, low, or no pain. Total absence of the dental hypersensitivity was reported in 26.66% of the examined group even after the second visit, compared to the control group where complete resolution of the hypersensitivity was not present after the second visit in any of the treated cases. Complete absence of pain was achieved in 86.6% of patients treated with laser and only in 26.6% in the fluoride treated group, after the third visit. Based on our findings, we conclude that low-energy biostimulative laser treatment can be successfully used for treatment of dental hypersensitivity following scaling and root planing.
