Tooth sensitivity is a very common clinical presentation which can cause considerable concern for patients. The management of this condition requires a good understanding of the complexity of the problem, as well as the variety of treatments avaible. Even with the large number of published studies, it has not been possible to reach a consensus about the product that represents the gold standard in the treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity. This article reviews the etiology, incidence and management of dentinal hypersensitivity

Dentin Hassasiyeti: Mekanizmalar, Etiyoloji ve Tedavi Yaklaşımları

Öz

Diş hassasiyeti hastalar için ciddi rahatsızlık yaratan yaygın bir klinik durumdur. Bu durumun kontrolü problemin kompleksliğini ve ulaşılabilen tedavi seçeneklerinin iyi anlaşılmasını gerektirir. Çok sayıda yayınlanmış çalışmaya rağmen, dentin hassasiyetinin tedavisinde altın standardı sunan bir ürünle ilgili ortak görüş birliğine varılamamıştır. Bu makale dentin hassasiyetinin etiyolojisi, insidansı ve kontrolünü incelemektedir

Anahtar Kelimeler
