Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The main objective of the present study is to validate DHEQ-fr through a multicenter clinical study (three centers in France) in adult patients. The secondary objective is to compare the results of DHEQ-fr with those of the general oral health assessment index and oral health impact profil for the same patients. Patients are split between three DH groups (Schiff scores 1, 2 and 3) and a control group (non-DH). The overall sample size (all centers considered) for the DH group is 162 subjects divided into 54 subjects for each Schiff score (1 to 3; after cold air stimulation), with a control group of 54 subjects. A re-test will be performed, at 15 days, on a random sample of 60 subjects from the study population (in total: 15 non-DH subjects; 15 with a Schiff score of 1; 15 with a score of 2; 15 with a score of 3). The study of psychometric properties such as acceptability, internal consistency, reproducibility and internal structure validity will allow the validation of this French version of the DHEQ.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
dentin hypersensitivity group
patients with at least one tooth with a diagnosis of dentin hypersensitivity (DH) with dentin exposure related to gum recession and/or erosive lesion or with a diagnosis of DH with a gingival margin flush with the amelocementary junction. In patients with multiple teeth with DH, the study will consider the most painful tooth according to the EVA score on the air jet test.
Schiff Test
Use of an air syringe positioned perpendicular to the tooth surface at a distance of 1 cm. A scale to determine the intensity of DH was created, with the SASS (Shiff Analog Sensitivity Scale) ranging from 0 to 3 (0 being the absence of pain felt by the patient and 3 being pain considered intolerable). If the pain is greater than 1 then the patient is considered hypersensitive.

control group
Control group: The group of patients without DH will consist of patients from the study centers who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate.
Schiff Test
Use of an air syringe positioned perpendicular to the tooth surface at a distance of 1 cm. A scale to determine the intensity of DH was created, with the SASS (Shiff Analog Sensitivity Scale) ranging from 0 to 3 (0 being the absence of pain felt by the patient and 3 being pain considered intolerable). If the pain is greater than 1 then the patient is considered hypersensitive.
