About this trial

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of diode laser photobiomodulation combined with CPP-ACPF varnish versus CPP-ACPF varnish alone in reducing dentin hypersensitivity. Participants diagnosed with dentin hypersensitivity will receive either the combined treatment or varnish application alone. Pain levels will be evaluated using a standardized visual analog scale before and after treatment sessions. The results of this study may help determine whether adding diode laser therapy enhances the effectiveness of conventional varnish treatment in managing dentin hypersensitivity.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult participants aged from 20 to 50 years of age.

Participants with good oral hygiene.

Presence of at least one tooth with dentin hypersensitivity confirmed by the air blast and/or tactile stimuli (scoring ≥3 on the VAS).

Participants willing to cooperate and attend recall appointments

Disqualifiers

Participants with poor oral hygiene.

History of professional or at-home desensitizing treatment within the previous 3 months.

Pregnant or lactating females.

Concurrent participation in other research studies.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Diode laser photobiomodulation combined with CPP-ACPF varnish

    Device

    Participants will receive diode laser photobiomodulation applied to sensitive teeth followed by application of CPP-ACPF varnish according to the manufacturer's instructions. This combination treatment is intended to reduce dentin hypersensitivity.

  • CPP-ACPF varnish

    Other intervention

    Participants will receive CPP-ACPF varnish applied to sensitive teeth according to the manufacturer's instructions to reduce dentin hypersensitivity.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Reduction in dentin hypersensitivity in response to evaporative (air-blast) stimulus

Change in dentin hypersensitivity in response to an evaporative (air-blast) stimulus, measured using a visual analog scale (VAS). Lower scores indicate reduced sensitivity. Scores: 0-10 (Ordinal) where 0 represents "no pain" and 10 represents "greatest pain".

Time frame
Assessed at baseline, immediately post-treatment, and at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months follow-up.

Secondary outcomes

1

Reduction in dentin hypersensitivity in response to tactile (dental probe) stimulus.

Change in dentin hypersensitivity in response to a tactile stimulus using a dental probe, measured with a visual analog scale (VAS). Lower scores indicate reduced sensitivity. Scores: 0-10 (Ordinal) where 0 represents "no pain" and 10 represents "greatest pain".

Time frame
Assessed at baseline, immediately post-treatment, and at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months follow-up.
