nanoXIM•CarePaste: The Enamel Repair Ingredient Nano-hydroxyapatite toothpaste vs Fluoride toothpaste in reducing dental hypersensitivity

Our teeth are constantly subjected to erosion caused by the action of food and drinks (1). These aggressions result in the exposure of dentinal tubules and the underlying nerves to the external environment. Consequently, external stimuli trigger the nerves causing a short and acute pain clinically defined as dental hypersensitivity (2). Individuals with this condition present tooth with open dentinal tubules that are wider and more numerous than nonsensitive teeth (2, 3). Therefore, it has been reported that the occlusion of tubules is an effective method for the management of dental hypersensitivity (2).
