Clinical trials

Dental varnishes are commonly used to relieve dentin hypersensitivity by forming a protective film that occludes dentinal tubules and reduces fluid flow. This clinical investigation aims to compare the desensitizing effect of a fluoride containing varnish with a fluoride free placebo varnish. Primary and secondary objectives include evaluating short and long term reductions in dentinal hypersensitivity, assessing patient reported outcomes and daily experiences, and monitoring the varnish's tolerability and safety.

The last decades have seen a significant increase in myopia in children and young adults. Possible cause: increased near-work (school, computer, smartphone). Rationale: Reading glasses support the accommodative effort of the eyes. By wearing reading glasses, there is less interference with the young eye´s physiological axial growth despite increased near-work. Main objective: does the use of reading glasses during near-work in children and adolescents reduce the incidence of myopia.
