The Effect of Desensitizing Agents in In-home or In-office Dental Bleaching
Dentin HypersensitivityThe aim of this project is to evaluate in vitro and in vivo the effect of dental bleaching agents, carbamide peroxide 16% (T1) and hydrogen peroxide 35% (T2) together with desensitizers/remineralizer agents, Sensodyne® dentifrice (D1); experimental dentifrice with 7,5% of Biosilicate micro-particles (D2); Odontis RX® dentifrice (D3); Sorriso® dentifrice (D4); Biosilicate micro-particles paste, 1:1 (D5), Desensebilize Nano P (D6), bioglass type 45S5 paste, 1:1 (D7); GC= distilled water, in the experimental groups: T1/D1; T1/D2; T1/D3; T1/D4; T1/D5; T1/D6; T1/D7; T1/GC e T2/D1; T2/D2; T2/D3; T2/D4; T2/D5; T2/D6; T2/D7; T2/GC. In the in vitro study, microhardness and roughness measurements, and images using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) will be made on samples of bovine dental enamel and dentin (4x4x3mm; n=10 per group) before and after the treatment with the bleaching gels (T1= 14 days/ 04 hours/day; T2=single session) and the desensitizers/remineralizer agents. In the clinical study, the volunteers (n=10 per group) will be evaluated regarding dentin hypersensitivity (DH), using visual analogue scale, before the beginning of the treatments (T1 and T2) and during the next 14 days (1º, 3º, 7º, 10 º e 14º days) in which the desensitizers/remineralizer agents (there´s no control group in the clinical experiments) will be applying. Data will be analysed intra and inter-group, statistically.
Investigating the Efficacy of a Dentifrice in Providing Long Term Relief From Dentinal Hypersensitivity...
Dentine HypersensitivityClinical studies have demonstrated long term relief from dentine hypersensitivity with twice daily brushing of a toothpaste containing stannous fluoride in comparison to marketed (negative) controls. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a stannous fluoride dentifrice in the treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity compared to a marketed (negative) control, over a period of 56 days (8 weeks) with twice daily brushing.

Dentin SensitivityThis study will determine the effects toothbrush type (power or manual) has on the safety and effectiveness of professional dentinal hypersensitivity treatment with a marketed oxalate-containing solution.
Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Two Dentifrices for Dentine Hypersensitivity
Dentine SensitivityAn 8 week clinical study to evaluate the ability of an experimental dentifrice containing calcium sodium phosphosilicate and sodium fluoride to provide relief from dentine hypersensitivity compared to a marketed dentifrice containing calcium sodium phosphosilicate and sodium monofluorophosphate.
Clinical Study Investigating the Efficacy of a Mouthwash in Providing Long Term Relief From Dentinal...
Dentin SensitivityThe aim of this study is to investigate the longitudinal efficacy of a potassium nitrate mouthwash formulation when used as an adjunct to brushing with a standard fluoride dentifrice for the relief of dentinal hypersensitivity (DH) compared to brushing with a standard fluoride dentifrice alone. This will be a single centre, eight week, randomised, examiner blind, two treatment arm, parallel design, stratified (by maximum baseline Schiff Sensitivity Score of the two selected test teeth) study in participants with at least two sensitive teeth that meet all the criteria at the Screening and Baseline visit. Participants will be assessed at Baseline, and at four and eight weeks to monitor clinical efficacy and safety.
Effectiveness of Two Water-Based Potassium Oxalate Desensitizers
Dentin SensitivityThis study will compare the safety and effectiveness of two water-based potassium oxalate desensitizers on existing dentinal hypersensitivity.
A Clinical Study of Two Dentinal Hypersensitivity Treatments Used With Normal Oral Hygiene
Dentin SensitivityThis study will compare the safety and effectiveness of normal oral hygiene with two different marketed dentifrices, on longer term dentinal hypersensitivity response following use of potassium oxalate desensitizers.

FluorosisDental2 moreThe present study was designed as a randomised controlled clinical trial which was unicenter, double-blinded, parallel designed study, according to the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) criteria, 2010. The study period was from July 2014 to September 2015.
Clinical Study of the Whitening Dentifrices on Tooth Color and Sensitivity
Dentin HypersensitivityObjective:The aim of this clinical study was to evaluate tooth color alteration (ΔE) and tooth sensitivity (TS) in patients that used two commercial brand-whitening dentifrices for four weeks. Sixty participants were selected in accordance with inclusion and exclusion criteria and randomly allocated in three groups (n=20): G1-Colgate Luminous White®, G2- Close up White Now® and G3- Sorriso® dentifrice (placebo). Then, participants received the instructions to use only the blinded supplied dentifrice and toothbrush to make the habitual oral hygiene, three times per day during four weeks. Evaluators assessed tooth color (CIEL*a*b system) and TS (VAS scale) at baseline and every week (assessment points 1, 2, 3 and 4). Two-way ANOVA and posterior Tukey and Friedman test analyzed data (α = 0.05).
