Summary
The world lacks a gold standard treatment for treating dentin hypersensitivity. Fluoride
varnish is most commonly used as a treatment but it causes temporary discoloration of tooth
structure and may cause irritation or burning of gums when it comes in contact with gums.
Seventh generation bonding agents are less technique sensitive and are easy to use. The
present study aims to find out the better seventh generation bonding agent as a treatment
option for sensitivity.
A total of 105 patients with dentin hypersensitivity are randomized into three groups.
Scaling and root debridement are performed for all the groups. This study compares two
seventh generation bonding agents and taking fluoride varnish as control group.
