Evidence for the efficacy of an 8% strontium acetate dentifrice for instant and lasting relief of dentin hypersensitivity.

J Clin Dent

Published: August 2010

An 8% strontium acetate, 1040 ppm sodium fluoride-based dentifrice has been demonstrated in in vitro and in situ studies to provide deep and acid-resistant tubule occlusion. Clinical efficacy studies have shown instant and lasting dentin hypersensitivity relief from this dentifrice, which has recently been launched by GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare as Sensodyne Rapid Relief.

Strontium acetate is applied for dental hypersensitivity treatment; however, the use of strontium carbonates for this purpose has not been described. The use of Sr-carbonate nanoparticles takes advantage of both the benefits of strontium on dentin mineralization and the abrasive properties of carbonates. Here in, we aimed to synthesize strontium carbonate and strontium-substituted calcium carbonate nanoparticles and test them as potential compounds in active dentifrices for treating dental hypersensitivity.

Antibacterial and Cytocompatible: Combining Silver Nitrate with Strontium Acetate Increases the Therapeutic Window.

Microbial infection and insufficient tissue formation are considered to be the two main causes of dental implant failure. Novel studies have focused on designing dual-functional strategies to promote antibacterial properties and improve tissue cell response simultaneously. In this study, we investigated the antibacterial properties and cytocompatibility of silver nitrate (AgNO) and strontium acetate (SrAc) in a mono-culture setup for dental application.

Background: Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is a sharp toothache that influences a patients' oral health-related quality of life. Oral dentifrices have been marketed for pain relief within a minute for DH. The permanent management of DH is being investigated with the remineralisation potential of bioactive agents in dentinal tubules.

Objectives: This study evaluated the effect of photobiomodulation (PBM) combined with 8% strontium acetate (SA8%) in the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity (DH) in non-carious lesions and analyzed the risk factors with the patient's quality of life.

Methods: Eighty teeth with DH were randomly allocated into four treatment groups (n = 20): G1, PBM imitation + toothpaste with no active ingredient; G2, PBM imitation + toothpaste with SA8%; G3, PBM + toothpaste without the active ingredient; and G4, PBM + toothpaste with SA8%. Participants were provided with a questionnaire on the experience of dentin hypersensitivity (QEDH) to assess the impact of desensitizing treatment on health-related quality of life (HRQL).

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the effectiveness of two herbal toothpastes made with pomegranate peel, Equisetum arvense extracts, and strontium acetate in occluding dentin tubules.
  • Both toothpastes significantly reduced the number of open dentin tubules compared to a control group, with statistical validation.
  • Scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed the occlusion and identified strontium and silica deposits on dentin tubules from the toothpaste containing Equisetum arvense.
