  • In this study, 40 hypersensitive teeth of 19 patients were investigated. The procedures performed were as follows: Before desensitization, EPT at occlusal third of buccal surface was done for the evaluation of pulp vitality and the EPT value was recorded for the reference value. And mechanical and thermal test was executed for the test of hypersensitivity. If the tooth responded to the above tests, we did EPT at the exposed surface, using toothpaste as a electrolite medium and recorded the EPT value at patient's response. After the tests had been done, desensitization procedures with Gluma(R) Desensitizer were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. After desensitization, the same tests except EPT at occlusal third were repeated. All the 40 teeth responded positive before desensitization and negative after desensitization procedures. The EPT value at occlusal third ranged from 31 to 65 (48.9${\pm}$7.2). Before desensitization 34 teeth responded at EPT value of 2 and the remaining 6 teeth was in the range of 17 to 25. After desensitization all 40 teeth responded from 12 to 27 (19.6${\pm}$3.5). The 6 teeth responded at greater number than 2 before desensitization was in the range of 18 to 23. Within the limitations of this study we can conclude that: When a tooth with dentinal hypersensitivity responds to mechanical and thermal stimulation, the tooth shows very low resistance to electricity at the exposed surface while when a tooth is desensitized and doesn't show respond to mechanical and thermal stimuli, the tooth shows increased level of resistance to electric stimulation at the exposed surface. EPT can be used for the diagnosis of dentinal hypersensitivity. Furthermore EPT will be useful to evaluate the outcome of desensitization procedures. However, EPT is not a valid tool for measuring dentinal hypersensitivity.

  • Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine changes in the dentinal fluid flow (DFF) during desensitizing agent application and to compare permeability after application among the agents. Materials and Methods: A Class 5 cavity was prepared to exposure cervical dentin on an extracted human premolar which was connected to a sub-nanoliter fluid flow measuring device (NFMD) under 20 cm water pressure. DFF was measured from before application of desensitizing agent (Seal&Protect, SP; SuperSeal, SS; BisBlock, BB; Gluma desensitizer, GL; Bi-Fluoride 12, BF) through application procedure to 5 min after application. Results: DFF rate after each desensitizing agent application was significantly reduced when compared to initial DFF rate before application (p < 0.05). SP showed a greater reduction in DFF rate than GL and BF did (p < 0.05). SS and BB showed a greater reduction in DFF rate than BF did (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Characteristic DFF aspect of each desensitizing agent was shown in NFMD during the application procedure.

  • Purpose: The effects of desensitizing agent are often for a short duration. One of the reasons is believed to be wear of desensitizing agent by tooth brushing. To reduce the wear and make the duration longer, dental bonding resin was applied and the changes of dentin permeability after toothbrushing were measured. Materials and methods: Extracted teeth free from caries were chosen. Coronal dentin discs with thickness of 1 mm were prepared. Using the split chamber device developed by Pashely, hydraulic conductance and scanning electron microscope images (SEM) were compared and contrasted before and immediately after the application of desensitizing agent and bonding resin and then after equivalent tooth brushing of 1 week, 2 weeks, and 6 weeks. Four commercially available desensitizing agents were used in this study; they were All-Bond 2, Seal & Protect, Gluma, and MS Coat. And Dentin/Enamel Bonding resin (Bisco Inc.) was used. The results of this study are as follows. Results: On all specimens, the hydraulic conductance decreased after the application of tooth desensitizing agent and bonding resin. Compared with the specimens treated only with desensitizer, the specimens treated with All-Bond 2, Gluma, MS Coat and plus D/E bonding resin had a little increase in hydraulic conductance after 1, 2 and 6-week tooth brushing. In case of Seal & Protect, the specimens showed the same result only after 6-week tooth brushing. On examination of SEM, the dentinal tubule diameter had decreased after treatment of desensitizing agents and bonding resin. And the specimens treated with All-Bond2, Seal&Protect, Gluma, MS Coat and plus D/E bonding resin had an significant decrease in diameter of dentinal tubule after 6-week tooth brushing. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, it is effective to use bonding resin after application of desensitizer in reducing the wear by tooth brushing and making the duration longer. In this study, just 6-week tooth brushing was performed, and it is not enough to regard it as a long-term data. So further study is needed and more perfect method for treating dentin hypersensitivity should be developed.

  • In this clinical research, the fluoride tape(SCMC-T-5) using fluoride(NaF) was developed and manufactured and the treatment effect of the fluoride tape in dentin hypersensitivity patients was evaluated and compared with the effect of existing fluoride varnish($CavityShield^{TM}$). Twenty two healthy adult patients(88 teeth) having dentin hypersensitivity participated in this clinical research and they were divided into two groups. The fluoride product was applied according to the manufacturer's instruction and the level of pain in the tooth after giving irritation using compressed air and ice stick was measured just after the application, after 3 days, after a week and after 4 weeks each using visual analog scale(VAS). In the experimental group, compared with the early VAS scores, all other VAS scores showed the significant decreases statistically. In the control group, all VAS scores except the VAS score of 34.091(air) measured 3 days after(using the irritation examination by the compressed air) showed the significant decreases statistically when compared with the early VAS scores. The fluoride tape and fluoride varnish used in this clinical research were able to treat the dentin hypersensitivity effectively.

  • The aim of this study was to compare the effects of the short-term use of the desensitizing dentifrices marketed in Korea in vitro. Fifty human dentine specimens were wet ground with silicone carbide paper and etched with 6% citric acid for 90 seconds to allow complete opening of the dentinal tubule. Ten specimens from each group were brushed for 50 and 150 strokes with a V8 Cross Brushing Machine(Sabri Co., U. S. A). All the specimens were evaluated by SEM(${\times}3000$). The degree of occlusion of the dentinal tubules was quantified using an image analyzer. The results were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's multiple comparisons using Window SPSS. The dentifrices containing nano-carbonate apatite, potassium nitrate and hydroxyapatite showed significantly higher occlusion effects than the other dentifrices after toothbrushing for 50 strokes(p<0.05). The Sensodyne freshmint$^{(R)}$dentifrice showed 34% fewer open tubular areas compared with the Sensodyne original$^{(R)}$dentifrice for 50 strokes. According to the short-term use of desensitizing dentifrices, the dentifrices containing nano-carbonate apatite, potassium nitrate and hydroxyapatite were most effective in occluding the dentinal tubules.
