This study will include 45 teeth with dentin hypersensitivity, using clinical and split mouth technique, in patients with periodontal diseases who have undergone periodontal care for at least a year.
Dentin hypersensitivity will be evaluated using air and tactile stimulation tests. The study will be double-blind. Clinical applicability of the treatments will be evaluated by following process; the assessments will be recorded immediately following the treatment at minute 15 and in day 2, 7, and 30.
1-Air stimulus application test: the tooth being studied will be isolated and dried. Cold air is administered on the tooth surface at the distance of 1cm. Patient response will be recorded using visual analog scale (VAS).
2-Tactile stimulus application test: stimulation is made by periodontal probe scraping the radicular surface of exposed tooth. Patient response is recorded with VAS.
