Treating cervical hypersensitivity by Bifluorid (german) brushing

In the recent years in the developed countries there’s a noticeable change in the length of keeping of people’s own teeth. This positive change however raises the issue of cervical hypersensitivity and damages to the neck of the teeth. The emerged dental root is no longer covered and protected by the enamel from the erosion-type effects of brushing teeth and the acids of food and drink are enhancing the sensitivity of the dentin canaliculus. This means the patient will have an instant and huge pain from cold/warm/chemical exposure (e.g. acidic beverages).
The strength of the pain is in conjunction with the size of the dentin that is emerged. The sensitiveness is growing by a stronger external exposure (e.g. tooth brushing) that makes the patient’s oral hygiene worse. The aim of the treatment is to cover the damaged part of the dentin; to stop the openness of the tubular network that is part of the fabric of the dentin. Special varnishes and so called bonds are used for this purpose what we apply by brushing. The special varnish we use has a high content of fluorine what we apply on the carefully prepared dentin surface and get it dried. The fluorine molecules are sealing the tubulars, thereby stopping the cervical sensitivity. Like all kinds of vanishes, this one wears off after a while, but then the process can be done again. In serious cases, further action may be made to eliminate cervical sensitivity.

     

A dentin

Dentin (BE: dentine) is a calcified tissue of the body, and along with enamel, cementum, and pulp is one of the four major components of teeth. Usually, it is covered by enamel on the crown and cementum on the root and surrounds the entire pulp. By weight, seventy percent of dentin consists of the mineral hydroxylapatite, twenty percent is organic material and ten percent is water. Yellow in appearance, it greatly affects the color of a tooth due to the translucency of enamel. Dentin, which is less mineralized and less brittle than enamel, is necessary for the support of enamel. Dentin consists of microscopic channels, called dentinal tubules, which radiate outward through the dentin from the pulp to the exterior cementum or enamel border. These tubules contain fluid and cellular structures. As a result, dentin has a degree of permeability which can increase the sensation of pain and the rate of tooth decay. The formation of dentin, known as dentinogenesis, begins prior to the formation of enamel and is initiated by the odontoblasts of the pulp. Unlike enamel, dentin continues to form throughout life and can be initiated in response to stimuli, such as tooth decay or attrition. There are different types of dentin, differentiated by appearance and stage of development. Primary dentin forms most of the tooth. Secondary dentin develops after root formation is complete and forms much slower than primary dentin. Tertiary dentin forms as a biological response to stimuli.
