68 participants in 2 patient groups

Shield Force Plus Varnish

Experimental group

Description:

Shield force plus (SFP), Self-reinforcing (SR) monomer technology supplied in the form of one component self-etching light-cured dental adhesive, which is characterized by an SR monomer component that penetrates the tooth substrate. Multi-point interactions with apatite calcium and three-dimensional cross-linking occur reactions.it forms a thin even, hard coating on the tooth surface that gives the tooth substrate a superior binding power.

Treatment:

Drug: TOKUYAMA SHIELD FORCE PLUS

Sodium Fluoride varnish

Active Comparator group

Description:

Topical application of varnish fluoride (sodium fluoride NaF) effect on exposed dentine as a desensitizing agent, the varnish fluoride process is caused by the reaction between NaF and calcium ions resulting in calcium fluoride crystals being deposited on the openings of the dentinal tubules that decrease pain.

Treatment:

Drug: Sodium Fluoride 5% Dental Varnish
