TOOTH SENSITIVITY
Cause
Exposure of dentin of
tooth to oral
environment
Dentine has numerous fine
tubules which connect to pulp
Irritation of nerve endings by
external stimuli cause pain
Mechanism of Action
Occlusion of the
dentin tubules
Desensitization of nerve fibers,
blocking the neural transmission
