Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Mean Total Score (34 Item Total From Section 2) of Dentine Hyersensitivity Experience Questionnaire (DHEQ) at Week 4
All participants scored first 34 questions present in section 2 of the DHEQ using a 7-point scale, where 7= Strongly agree, 6=Agree, 5= Agree a little, 4= neither agree or disagree, 3= disagree a little, 2= disagree, and 1= strongly disagree. Section 2 had questions about the ways in which the sensations in the teeth affected participants in daily life. It was grouped into domains as follows: Restrictions (Section 2, Q1-4), Adaptation (Section 2, Q5-16), Social Impact (Section 2, Q17 to 21), Emotional Impact (Section 2, Q22 to 29), and Identity (Section 2, Q30 to 34).

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This multicentre, non-comparative design study will monitor the impact of long term management of DH with daily use of a sensitivity toothpaste on the quality of life of a population of sensitivity sufferers. Changes in oral health related quality of life will be monitored using the Dentine Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire (DHEQ). The study will be conducted in participants in good general health, with pre-existing self-reported and clinically diagnosed tooth sensitivity at screening.
Detailed Description
This will be multicenter, non-comparative design to monitor the impact of long term management of DH with daily use of a sensitivity toothpaste on the quality of life of a population of sensitivity sufferers, using the DHEQ. Changes in DH will be monitored clinically over the 24 week treatment period.
