Comparative evaluation of fluorinol and calcium sodium phosphosilicate-containing toothpastes in the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity.

Background: Dentin hypersensitivity is one of the most commonly encountered clinical problems. Various desensitizing agents have been widely used in the management of dentin hypersensitivity. Fluorinol, a fluoride-containing agent, has shown to be effective in fluoridating the hydroxyapatite crystal and thus reduce enamel solubility.
