Overview

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the application of fluoride works to treat patients suffering from dentin hypersensitivity. It will also learn about the safety of using fluoride iontophoresis with Acidulated phosphate fluoride gel. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the remineralizing agent have the ability to decrease dentin sensitivity? Researchers will compare Fluoride Iontophoresis with Acidulated Phosphate Fluoride gel , Casein phosphopeptides-Amorphus calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP), nano-hydroxyapptite (NHAP) and -active glass in decreasing dentin hypersensitivity . Participants will: * Application of remineralizing agent every 3 months * Visit the dental clinic once every 3 months for checkups and tests

Assess the efficacy of fluoride iontophoresis in remineralization in comparison with other ingredients.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Visual Analogue Scale

Measurement of sensitivity was performed after each stimulus by a Visual Analogue Scale, which consists of a 10-cm long line; the minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 10, whether the higher scores mean worse and the lower score means better outcome. The patient's pain limits can suffer through an external stimulus; at 0, one end represents absence of discomfort, and the other represents severe discomfort caused by certain stimuli. Each time the patient is subjected to a stimulus, he or she is requested to point at the interval from 0 to 10, a number to correspond to the pain felt. The convenience of this type of scale is to allow demonstration of the pain intensity with absolute numbers or as a percentage of a maximum value
