Could your patients be suffering in silence from Dentine Hypersensitivity?

Magnitude of Dentine Hypersensitivity Problem

Across the globe, approximately 1 in 2 patients (51.4%)1 may silently endure dentine hypersensitivity (DH)2, often avoiding cold or hot foods and missing out on life’s simple pleasures3. Many do not mention their discomfort during consultations, leaving DH undiagnosed and untreated, which affects their quality of life3. As a trusted healthcare provider, your role extends beyond treating symptoms — by proactively screening for DH, you can build stronger patient relationships, improve compliance with oral care routines, and foster long-term loyalty; keeping patients returning to your clinic. Early detection is urged by the Expert Consensus Advisory Board to prevent further discomfort and enhance patients' well-being.
