Effect of nanohydroxyapatite associated with photobiomodulation in the control of dentin hypersensitivity: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of nanohydroxyapatite ( nHAP) associated with photobiomodulation (PBM) in the control of dentin hypersensitivity (DH). (C-Shape It).

Methods: 32 subjects with 83 hypersensitive teeth were randomized into four groups (N =8) : GPlacebo - simulated PBM (without light emission) followed by the application of nHAP-free toothpaste; GLaser - PBM followed by the application of nHAP-free toothpaste; GnHAP - simulated PBM followed by the application of nHAP; GLasernHAP - PBM followed by the application of nHAP.
