Trial Outcomes & Findings for Clinical Efficacy of a Toothpaste on Hypersensitivity Reduction (NCT NCT01040169)

NCT ID: NCT01040169

Last Updated: 2013-12-10

Results Overview

Units on a scale:Measured with an electronic force sensing probe(Yeaple Probe):10, 20, 30, 40,up to 50 grams of force are applied to hypersensitive tooth until pain is felt. This calibrated instrument measures grams of force applied to each tooth before pain is felt. This data is recorded as the hypersensitivity score. The lower the score, the higher the hypersensitivity.Changes in this score to potentially painful stimulus are determined based on how many grams of force can be applied before the subject reports feeling pain. Grams of force is therefore the unit measurement for sensitivity

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks (Final)

Units on a scale using Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale. Response to a constant (duration, pressure, temperature, distance from target) jet of air applied to a hypersensitive tooth. According to this analog scale hypersensitivity scores for the stimulated tooth is 0, 1, 2 or 3(The lower the score, the lower the hypersensitivity). 0=No subject response to stimulus, 1=responds but will continue, 2=responds and moves or requests discontinuation, 3=Painful response to stimulus, discontinuation requested.
