Dentin Hypersensitivity is a highly prevalent yet often underestimated clinical condition that significantly compromises patients’ oral health-related quality of life. Despite being characterized by a short, sharp pain of non-pathological origin, its multifactorial etiology, complex pathophysiology, and subjective nature make diagnosis and management challenging for clinicians. A wide range of at-home and in-office desensitizing agents are currently available, acting either by neural desensitization or by occlusion of dentinal tubules. Recent advances, including bioactive glasses, calcium phosphate systems, nano-hydroxyapatite, arginine-based formulations, and herbal agents, have shown promising results by closely mimicking natural remineralization processes and providing sustained relief. However, no single agent can be considered universally effective, highlighting the need for individualized treatment planning based on severity, etiology, and patient compliance. This Textbook enlightens indetail about Etilogy, Clinical features and Patient centric Advanced treatment modalities in the Management of Dentinal Hypersensitivity.
