About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Dentin Sensitivity focused on measuring Sensitivity

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • be at least 18 years of age;
  • provide written informed consent prior to participation and be given a signed copy of the informed consent form;
  • complete a photography consent agreement pertaining to the collection and use of non-identifying intraoral photographs;
  • be in good general health as determined by the Investigator/designee; and
  • have at least one tooth with a Schiff sensitivity score of at least 1 in response to the cool air challenge.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • self-reported pregnancy or nursing;
  • severe periodontal disease, as characterized by purulent exudate, generalized mobility, and/or severe recession;
  • active treatment of periodontitis;
  • any diseases or conditions that might interfere with the safe completion of the study; or

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline Air Challenge
The Schiff Sensitivity Scale was assessed for each test tooth via an evaporative air challenge. The examiner recorded the Schiff Index score corresponding to the response to the air challenge. The Schiff Index Sensitivity scale is scored as follows- 0: tooth/subject did not respond to stimulus, 1: tooth/subject responds to stimulus, but does not request discontinuation of stimulus, 2: tooth/subject responds to stimulus and requests discontinuation or moves form stimulus, 3: tooth/subject responds to stimulus, considers stimulus to be painful, and requests discontinuation of the stimulus. The higher the Schiff score, the more sensitive the tooth. The mean change from Baseline was calculated for this measure.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline Visual Analog Scale
Visual Analog Scale (VAS) - subjects are asked to look at a VAS and designate the level of hypersensitivity they experienced as a result of the thermal and water challenges using a continuum scale of 0 = No tooth pain up to 100 = Worst tooth pain ever experienced.
