Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 12
Abstract
Abstract: The objective of this study was to estimate and compare the dentin hypersensitivity reduction after Novamin based paste (SHY NM) paste and Biomin based paste (Elsenz) in an adult population. The study population included 100 subjects, who visited the out-patient department of periodontics, Govt Dental College and Hospital Srinagar in need of hypersensitivity problem. After conducting routine examinations, Tactile,VAS and thermal tests were used to assess the sensitivity. The measurement of sensitivity was carried out by using a 10 cm visual analog scale before and after desensitizing paste. The results were analyzed statistically using the Mann-Whitney U test. The results showed that patients who were prescribed Biomin based pastes (Elsenz) had more favourable results than Novamin based pastes (Shy NM). The results of the present study demonstrated that Patients with Biomin based paste reported more dentin hypersensitivity reduction than patients with Novamin based paste evaluated with thermal, tactile, VAS scale
