Continuous Innovation in Desensitizing Formulations Helps to Reduce Dentin Hypersensitivity

Adoption of modern dentistry includes teeth desensitizing which is a fast and easy procedure to have and it can bring relief from some forms of dental pain. The growing prevalence of dental caries commonly known as tooth decay is rising around the globe. Hence, it is mainly supporting dental desensitizing products while providing an opportunity for the manufacturers to meet the needs of individuals experiencing hypersensitivity due to dental-related issues. As per WHO, severe periodontal diseases are estimated to affect around 19% of the global adult population. Additionally, it is anticipated that 2 billion people suffer from dental caries of permanent teeth and 514 million children suffer from caries of primary teeth. This creates a demand for teeth desensitizer.

Continuous innovation in desensitizer formulations and delivery systems including fluoride gels, toothpaste, and mouth rinses have broadened the market. For treating dentin hypersensitivity desensitizing agents, fillings or sealants are used to reduce sensitivity and pain. For instance, according to the study of the National Centre of Biotechnology Information (NCBI) desensitizing toothpaste containing 8% arginine was found to be the most effective and provides a statistically significant reduction in dentin hypersensitivity, and many clinical trials have demonstrated a remarkable desensitization curative effect.
 
Dental health awareness and hygiene encourage individuals to seek solutions for common issues such as teeth sensitivity. Moreover, lifestyle factors such as consumption of acidic foods, aggressive brushing habits and teeth grinding contribute to the need of teeth desensitizer. The need of teeth desensitizers post-treatment has grown significantly due to the dental treatments such as teeth whitening, scaling, and root planning often lead to temporary sensitivity. As a result, dental professionals are also recommending desensitizing products to their patients, further, the demand for teeth desensitizing is driving the teeth desensitizer market. To treat tooth sensitivity potassium nitrate and sodium fluoride are widely used among other teeth desensitizers. The fear of dental procedures can lead individuals to avoid or delay necessary dental care impacting their oral health, thus so use of teeth desensitizer plays a crucial role in the development of modern dentistry.
