This pilot study would investigate the ability of anti-caries products to reduce dentinal hypersensitivity when compared to a sensitivity-reducing dentifrice. It would be a novel contribution to the dental community if a material that is proven to reduce tooth decay is also proven to reduce dentinal hypersensitivity. The results may potentially have a tremendous impact on the dental community because it may provide dental professionals a scientifically-supported approach to improve the comfort and quality of life of periodontal patients (patients who are treated for gum disease/ bone loss around teeth) and increase the lifespan of teeth that undergo periodontal treatment.
