Dentinal hypersensitivity is a commonly observed problem after periodontal treatment procedures in periodontal patients. This further complicates preventive oral hygiene procedures by patients which jeopardize periodontal treatment, or even may aid in periodontal treatment failure.
The aims and objectives of present study were to assess the problem of dentine hypersensitivity after non-surgical periodontal treatment and selection of cases for evaluation of commercially available milk at room temperature as mouth rinse for the treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity caused by periodontal treatment.
Patients were selected randomly for nonsurgical periodontal treatment and then were assessed for dentine hypersensitivity. Those having dentine hypersensitivity were assigned in two groups. Group one patients were advised to rinse with commercially available milk at room temperature, group two patients were advised to rinse with luke warm water as control. A four point Verbal Rating Score (VRS) was designed to record the numerical value of dentine hypersensitivity.
The results show incidence of 42.5% and prevalence of 77.5% for dentine hypersensitivity after periodontal treatment procedures. After rinsing with milk following periodontal treatment procedures, there was found a significant reduction of dentine hypersensitivity with probability by unpaired t-test as 0.0007 and 0.0001 at tenth and fifteenth day post periodontal treatment procedures respectively.
This study demonstrated that the milk rinse is a suitable, cheaper, fast acting, home-use and easily available solution to the problem of dentine hypersensitivity after non-surgical periodontal treatment. Milk can be used as desensitizing agent and rinsing with milk for few days is effective in quick reduction of dentine hypersensitivity due to periodontal treatment procedures.
牙本质过敏是牙周病患者在牙周治疗后常见的问题。这使得患者的预防性口腔卫生措施更加复杂,危及牙周治疗,甚至可能导致牙周治疗失败。
本研究的目的是评估非手术牙周治疗后牙本质过敏问题,并选择病例评估室温下市售牛奶作为漱口水治疗牙周治疗引起的牙本质过敏的效果。
随机选择患者进行非手术牙周治疗,然后评估牙本质过敏情况。有牙本质过敏的患者分为两组。第一组患者被建议用室温下的市售牛奶漱口,第二组患者被建议用温水漱口作为对照。设计了一个四点言语评定量表(VRS)来记录牙本质过敏的数值。
结果显示,牙周治疗后牙本质过敏的发生率为42.5%,患病率为77.5%。牙周治疗后用牛奶漱口后,发现牙本质过敏有显著降低,在牙周治疗后第10天和第15天,未配对t检验的概率分别为0.0007和0.0001。
本研究表明,牛奶漱口是一种适合、便宜、起效快、家庭可用且容易获得的解决非手术牙周治疗后牙本质过敏问题的方法。牛奶可作为脱敏剂,用牛奶漱口几天可有效快速降低牙周治疗引起的牙本质过敏。
