About this trial
Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is defined as sharp pain of a shorter duration arise from exposed dentin in response to several chemicals and thermal or tactile stimuli that cannot be ascribed to other dental defects". DH has a prevalence rate ranging from 1.3% to 92.1%, commonly affecting old ages. The use of laser has opened new dimensions in the treatment of DH. To the author's knowledge, not much research work has been conducted using LASOTRONIX as a treatment modality with CPP-ACP. Therefore, this research aims to determine the effectiveness of Casein phospho peptide paste (CPP-ACP) used alone or combined with a diode laser (LASOTRONIX).
