ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Schiff Sensitivity ScoreBaseline-Week 8
The examiner conducted the evaporative air sensitivity assessment and scored the subject's response to the sensitivity stimulus using the four-point categorical Schiff Sensitivity Scale (SSS). Score 0 = Subject does not respond to air stimulus Score 1 = Subject responds to air stimulus, but does not request discontinuation of stimulus Score 2 = Subject responds to air stimulus, and requests discontinuation or moves from stimulus Score 3 = Subject responds to air stimulus, considers stimulus to be painful, and requests discontinuation
SecondaryMean Change From Baseline in Schiff Sensitivity ScoreBaseline-Week 4
The examiner conducted the evaporative air sensitivity assessment and scored the subject's response to the sensitivity stimulus using the four-point categorical Schiff Sensitivity Scale (SSS). Score 0 = Subject does not respond to air stimulus Score 1 = Subject responds to air stimulus, but does not request discontinuation of stimulus Score 2 = Subject responds to air stimulus, and requests discontinuation or moves from stimulus Score 3 = Subject responds to air stimulus, considers stimulus to be painful, and requests discontinuation
SecondaryMean Change From Baseline in Tactile SensitivityBaseline-Week 8
The examiner assessed the tactile sensitivity of eligible teeth using a Yeaple probe. The constant pressure applied by Yeaple probe probe allowed the examiner to vary the force applied to the dentin surface from 10g to an upper threshold of 80g, in increments of 10g. The greater the pressure the participant was able to tolerate, the less sensitive the tooth was considered. Testing began at 10g and increased by 10g, with each successive challenge, until either a "yes" response (pain was elicited) was recorded or the maximum force has been reached.

SecondaryMean Change in Dentinal Hypersensitivity After 4 Weeks as Measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS)Baseline-Week 4
The subject rated the intensity of their response to the evaporative air stimulus by rating the intensity of their response to the stimulus using a 100 millimeter (mm )VAS Scale 0 is No Pain and 100 is Worst Pain Imaginable A trained member of staff measured the line segment marked off in mm and recorded this measurement in the CRF
SecondaryMean Change in Dentinal Hypersensitivity After 8 Weeks as Measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS)Baseline - Week 8
The subject rated the intensity of their response to the evaporative air stimulus by rating the intensity of their response to the stimulus using a 100 millimeter (mm )VAS Scale 0 is No Pain and 100 is Worst Pain Imaginable A trained member of staff measured the line segment marked off in mm and recorded this measurement in the CRF
