SUMMARY FOR REDUCTING THE EMPLOYMENT OF DENTIN

摘要

A method of reducing dentin sensitivity comprising: applying an effective amount of an acid to a dentin surface to form a treated surface; and administering an effective amount of an acidic oxalate to the treated surface so as to occlude dentinal tubules beneath the dentin surface. The method may optionally comprise the subsequent application of a suitable bonding agent. The invention further provides a kit for the treatment of dentin sensitivity, comprising a first container of an acid treatment composition, and a second container of an acidic oxalate composition.
