An Evaluation of the Efficacy of Oral-B New Product Sensi-Stop on Dentinal Hypersensitivity
Description

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of Sensi-StopTM strips (Procter \& Gamble™) on the relief of dentinal hypersensitivity. In other words, do Sensi-StopTM strips (Procter \& Gamble™) reduce or eliminate cold sensitivity in teeth? In addition, the investigators will evaluate whether there is a difference in the Sensi-StopTM strip (Procter \& Gamble™) effectiveness when the product is placed by a dental professional compared to self-placement by the person with sensitive teeth. This product is not experimental.

Caries Prevention Products & Dentinal Hypersensitivity
Description

The aim of this pilot research project is to compare the clinical effect on dentinal hypersensitivity of three products: Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (CPP-ACP) paste with fluoride, 5000 Sodium Fluoride (NaF) dentifrice containing Tri-Calcium Phosphate (TCP), and a dentifrice containing Potassium Nitrate. The hypothesis of this study is that CPP-ACP with fluoride and 5000ppm NaF with TCP will exhibit a greater reduction in dentinal hypersensitivity compared to the control (dentifrice containing Potassium Nitrate). The results of this pilot study will validate or negate the need for a larger clinical study that may provide generalizable results for using caries-prevention products with the additional benefit of minimizing dentinal hypersensitivity.
