Method
In a single‑centered clinical trial, a total of 160 subjects were divided equally into four groups:
Group A
5% fluorocalcium phosphosilicate with fused silica (BioMin® F)
Group B
5% calcium sodium phosphosilicate (NovaMin™*)
Group C
Herbal formulation toothpaste
Group D
Toothpaste containing 5% potassium nitrate
The patient’s dentine hypersensitivity scores for tactile, evaporative stimuli were recorded on a visual analog scale at baseline, 2 weeks, and at the end of 4 weeks.
Conclusion
BioMin® F showed a better clinical response in relieving dentine hypersensitivity at the end of 4 weeks.
BioMin® F demonstrated significantly better results compared with NovaMin™ (Sensodyne Repair & Protect™) in treating dentine hypersensitivity.
