Study aim
-
Comparison of the effectiveness of two types of toothpaste containing potassium nitrate in the treatment of dental hypersensitivity secondary to SRP
-
Design
-
Clinical trial with 2 groups of parallel intervention, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 on 22 patients, our tool is to randomize the table of random numbers,
The sample size in each group is 11 people, and a total of 22 people.
-
Settings and conduct
-
This study will be carried out in the Periodontics department of Tabriz dental faculty.The two groups will be assimilated based on age and gender. dental hypersensitivity is determined at the beginning of the period, then on the 15th day, and finally on 30th day for each individual. the test consists of a score of 1 to 10 that the patient gives to the sensitivity of the teeth in touch, cold and hot stimulants.

-
Intervention group 1: Meridant toothpaste recipients to reduce tooth sensitivity following scaling and root planning (SRP)
Intervention group 2: Pronamel toothpaste recipients to reduce tooth sensitivity following SRP
-
Main outcome variables
