Desensitizing Effect of Sodium Bicarbonate Mouthwash in Patients with Dentinal Hypersensitivity–A Clinical Trial

Dentin Hypersensitivity (DH) is a major complaint of the general population. Reports have indicated the incidence of DH is 4 to 74percent of the population.1 It poses a challenge for clinicians because its presentation is ambiguous with no specific signs.2 Dentists rely on the patient’s clinical and dietary history and a thorough intraoral examination using thermal and tactile stimuli. Dentin receptors have a unique feature of eliciting pain as a response to any environmental stimulus.
