• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2022-07-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The present project will compare the effect of DH reduction using three different dentifrices (Sensodyne Repair and Protect - NOVAMIN technology; Dentalclean Daily Regenerator - REFIX technology; Dentalclean Daily Regenerator - REFIX technology + potassium citrate) in periodontal patients. The evaluation will be in 6 moments: T1 and T2- immediately before and after scaling and root planing (SRP) procedures; T3-after polishing sensitive areas with rubbers cups and the dentifrice determined for each group of patients and T4, 5, 6- After 2, 4 and 8 weeks of SRP. Profissional assessments and patient perception data will be performed.
