Cervical dentine sensitivity (CDS) is a painful response to thermal, physical or chemical stimulation of the cervical area of the tooth. The reported prevalence of this clinical condition ranges from 8 to 35% depending on the population studied and methodology used to evaluate CDS. Detailed epidemiology is lacking with regard to possible causal factors. Well conducted studies in larger populations using accepted standardized methodology for both questionnaire and clinical examination are essential if these factors are to be identified and the condition successfully prevented and treated. This paper reviews current literature on the prevalence, aetiology and oral distribution of this troublesome condition.
颈部牙本质敏感症（CDS）是牙齿颈部区域受到热、物理或化学刺激时产生的疼痛反应。根据所研究的人群以及评估CDS所使用的方法，该临床病症的报告患病率在8%至35%之间。关于可能的致病因素，缺乏详细的流行病学研究。如果要识别这些因素并成功预防和治疗该病症，那么在更大规模人群中使用公认的标准化问卷和临床检查方法进行充分的研究至关重要。本文综述了关于这种令人困扰的病症的患病率、病因及口腔分布的当前文献。
