Dentin hypersensitivity has been defined as the short, sharp and severe pain arising from exposed dentin in response to thermal, tactile, evaporative, electrical, osmotic or chemical stimuli. The treatment of dentin hypersensitivity should start with an accurate diagnosis. Differential diagnosis should be made and all other probable causes should be excluded. An often neglected phase of clinical management of dentin hypersensitivity is the identification and treatment of the causative factors. By removing the etiological factors, the condition can be even prevented from occurring or recurring. There are various treatment modalities available, which can be used at home or may be professionally applied, but a gold standart for treatment has not been found yet. The definition, diagnosis, treatment of dentine hypersensitivity and their differences in adults and children will be discussed in this review.
