“…(9,29) The present study showed that the use of hard toothbrushes and the horizontal brushing technique increased the sensitivity of the dentition, which is consistent with the results of the study by Babu et al (18) Several studies have reported that gingival recession was the most important factor in DH, which is consistent with the results of the present study. (20,21) In this study, there was a significant relationship between gingival recession and DH. The cause of the hypersensitivity is the exposure of dentinal tubules into the oral environment, which causes the teeth to be stimulated by various stimuli.…”

“…(19) One study showed that the prevalence of DH was higher in the anterior and posterior teeth of the mandible. (21) In other studies, incisors have been identified as the most common sensitive teeth. (9,29) One reason for this increase is greater wear and reduced thickness of the enamel in these teeth.…”

“…(23) In the present study, education was not a factor affecting DH, but Sood et al showed that the prevalence of DH was higher in those with lower education. (21) Chowdhary et al showed that as the age increases, the prevalence of DH decreases, which can be due to the formation of sclerotic dentin and the reduction of dentin permeability with age. (23) However, in the present study, there was no correlation between the age of the participants and the prevalence of DH, which is consistent with the results of the study by Alcântara et al (14) On the other hand, the results of other studies on the incidence of DH are very different, with an increase in prevalence in the age groups of 36-45, 40-49, and 50-59 years in various studies.…”

Background and Aim: Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is one of the most common problems in dentistry. Several factors affect DH. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of this problem and identify the associated factors. Materials and Methods: : In this cross-sectional study, 300 patients who referred to the operative dentistry department of Islamic Azad University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran, were examined. Demographic information and other related factors were recorded using a questionnaire. One examiner then examined the subjects regarding the potential related clinical factors. DH was evaluated using evaporative and tactile tests and was categorized using the visual analog scale (VAS). Descriptive data were presented as frequency and mean. Chi-Square test was used to examine the related factors at the significance level of 0.05. Result: The overall prevalence of DH was 21%. The correlation of horizontal brushing technique (P<0.005), hard toothbrushes (P<0.0001), gingival recession (P<0.0001), history of gingival surgery (P<0.001), tooth wear (P<0.001), traumatic occlusion (P<0.005), and bleaching toothpastes (P<0.005) with DH prevalence was significant. Conclusion: According to the results, high awareness about DH and its associated factors is mandatory.

“…[6] Few studies in Punjab, Chandigarh, Andhra Pradesh etc., stated that the prevalence of DH to be 25%, 47.8% and, 32%, respectively. [678] However, there is no available data on the prevalence of DH in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K). Therefore, the aim of this study was to find the prevalence of DH, and also to find the association between various factors and DH in district Jammu of J&K.…”

Background:Dentine hypersensitivity (DH) is a relatively common problem which may affect the adult population. The etiology remains multi-factorial with interactions between stimulus and pre-disposing factors causing its aggravation.Aim:To study the prevalence of DH and associated factors and also to find the association between various factors and DH.Materials and Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out and a total of 5091 patients, both male and females, were evaluated through questionnaire. Out of the total only 1400 patients were included in the study and were further evaluated clinically. A complete demographic data was obtained and the DH was confirmed by the use of air -water jet of the dental chair and scratching the suspected tooth with a dental probe. The pain response of the subject was recorded using the visual analog scale (VAS) and verbal rating scale (VRS). The data obtained was statistically evaluated and Chi-square test was applied for comparison of different demographic factors with DH.Results:The overall prevalence of DH was 27.4%. Various demographic factors were found to affect DH such as age, gender, education, and diet. The most common stimulus was found to be cold (21.4%) and common predisposing factor was gingival recession and attrition (28.6%). Clinical examination yielded a statistically significant association between VAS and VRS scores for DH and demographic factors.Conclusion:The prevalence of DH in present study was 27.4% which is attributed to gingival recession as predisposing factor and cold stimuli as the precipitating factor.

TRPM8 Mediates Hyperosmotic Stimuli-Induced Nociception in Dental Afferents

Hyperosmolar sweet foods onto exposed tooth dentin evoke sudden and intense dental pain, called dentin hypersensitivity. However, it remains unclear how hyperosmolar stimuli excite dental primary afferent (DPA) neurons and thereby lead to dentin hypersensitivity. This study elucidated whether TRPM8, which is well known as a cold temperature– or menthol-activated receptor, additionally mediates nociception in response to hyperosmolar stimuli in adult mouse DPA neurons, which are identified by a fluorescent retrograde tracer: DiI. Single-cell reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction revealed that TRPM8 was expressed in subsets of DPA neurons and that TRPM8 was highly colocalized with TRPV1 and Piezo2. Immunohistochemical analysis also confirmed TRPM8 expression in DPA neurons. By using Fura-2-based calcium imaging, application of hyperosmolar sucrose solutions elicited calcium transients in subsets of the trigeminal ganglion neurons, which was significantly abolished by a selective TRPM8 antagonist: N-(3-Aminopropyl)-2-[(3-methylphenyl)methoxy]-N-(2-thienylmethyl)benzamide (AMTB) hydrochloride. When we further examined changes of c-fos expression (a neuronal activation marker) in the spinal trigeminal nucleus after hyperosmolar stimulation onto exposed tooth dentin, c-fos mRNA and protein expression were increased and were also significantly reduced by AMTB, especially in the spinal trigeminal interpolaris-caudalis transition zone (Vi/Vc). Taken together, our results provide strong evidence that TRPM8 expressed in DPA neurons might mediate dental pain as a hyperosmosensor in adult mice.
