ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Schiff Sensitivity Score at Week 4Baseline and 4 weeks post administration of study treatment
Response to a constant jet of air applied to hypersensitive teeth was evaluated using a Schiff Sensitivity pain response scale. According to this analog scale, pain response for each individual stimulated tooth ranged from 0 to 3; 0 - participant did not respond to air stimulation, 1 - participant responded to air stimulus but did not request discontinuation of stimulus, 2 - participant responded to air stimulus and requested discontinuation of stimulus, 3 - participant responded to air stimulus, considered stimulus to be painful and request discontinuation of stimulus.
PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Schiff Sensitivity Score at Week 8Baseline and 8 weeks post administration of study treatment
Response to a constant jet of air applied to hypersensitive teeth was evaluated using a Schiff Sensitivity pain response scale. According to this analog scale, pain response for each individual stimulated tooth ranged from 0 to 3; 0 - participant did not respond to air stimulation, 1 - participant responded to air stimulus but did not request discontinuation of stimulus, 2 - participant responded to air stimulus and requested discontinuation of stimulus, 3 - participant responded to air stimulus, considered stimulus to be painful and request discontinuation of stimulus.
PrimaryMedian Change From Baseline in Tactile Sensitivity at Week 4Baseline and 4 weeks post administration of study treatment
Response to tactile sensitivity using a Yeaple probe which allowed application of a known force to the dentin surface, starting at 10g and rising in increments of 10g until the tactile threshold or maximum force was reached. The tactile threshold for each tooth was determined by asking the subject whether the sensation caused discomfort. The pressure setting at which the subject gave two consecutive 'yes' responses was recorded as the tactile threshold. The higher the tactile threshold, the less sensitive the tooth. At baseline, the maximum force used was 20g; at all subsequent visits, it was 80g.

PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Visual Rating Scale Score at Week 4Baseline and 4 weeks post administration of study treatmentThe intensity of response to stimulus will be rated using a 10 point scale where 1 denotes "No Pain" and 10 denotes "Intense Pain".

SecondaryMean Change From Baseline in Dentine Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire Total Score at Week 4Baseline and 4 weeks post administration of study treatment
DHEQ Total score is an overall summary measure for the impact of dentine hypersensitivity on everyday life. Total score is calculated as the sum of 34 questions (each with a possible score of 1 to 7). The scale of responses range from 34 to 238. Higher values imply a worse outcome i.e. an increase in impact on dentine hypersensitivity on everyday life. Lower values imply a better outcome i.e. a decrease in impact on dentine hypersensitivity on everyday life.
