episodic use of the desensitizing toothpaste
subjects assigned to episodic treatment will use the assigned toothpaste with the same previous instructions for two 8-week treatment periods, followed by an 8-week phase in which they will use the conventional fluoride dentifrice (Signal Complete 8 Original, Unilever, Egypt), which has no documented desensitizing efficacy
continuous use of the conventional desensitizing toothpaste
The patients will be instructed to use 1 inch amount of the assigned desensitizing toothpaste and soft bristle toothbrushes with the same brushing technique they will be taught in the intervention visit for 2 minutes twice a day (morning and last thing at night ) without further rinsing, only spitting of the excess material every day along the whole study period for the continuous treatment group.
