Independent of chosen stimulus, age or differences in selected groups of teeth, a reduction in pain intensity of about 50% can be attained following initial treatment with fluoride iontophoresis. The second treatment after 4 weeks leads to a nearly complete reduction in dentin-hypersensitivity. Subsequent to a third application of fluoride iontophoresis only minimal hypersensitivity is detectable. Precipitation of calcium-fluoride and blockage of dentinal tubules should be discussed. A decrease in hypersensitivity is likewise observed in the control group. The results of the final clinical examination show that slightly greater sensitivity remains. Electroanalgetic effects are probably responsible for the reduction of dentinal pain. Treatment of hypersensitivity is dependent upon such factors as age and oral hygiene. Supervised therapy for refractive dentinal pain appears to have greater success when fluoride iontophoresis is used.
