Brief Summary   The study was randomized, monocentric, parallel group, open label, four arm trial efficacy study. The duration of treatment was conducted for a period of 6 weeks on subjects and included a total of 4 visits (Baseline, 60 seconds, 3 weeks and 6 weeks). The subjects who satisfy inclusion/exclusion criteria were enrolled after obtaining informed consent. A total of 140 subjects were randomly divided into four experimental groups and ages between 20-60 years (both the ages inclusive) were enrolled in the study. A total of 139 subjects completed the six weeks study period. There was no side effects/ adverse event during the period of the study. The dentin sensitivity assessment was done using the tactile and air blast (Schiff’s Scale) hypersensitivity method.
Instant and lasting relief from dentin hypersensitivity was reported at the end of 6 week study period with test toothpaste A and B but not with toothpaste C and D.
