Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is a common oral health issue that has a negative effect on quality of life for millions of people globally. According to a systematic review1 published in 2013, the proportion of adults who suffer from DH is between 25 and 30 percent, depending on the population group. Overall, prevalence ranges from 3 to 57 percent, with the peak age being between 30 and 40 years. Interestingly, women seem to be affected to a slightly greater extent than men.
The vast prevalence of the condition appears to have several different contributory factors.One of these may be that people do not always seek professional help when suffering from DH, but rather try to live with it by adapting their lifestyles to minimize its impact.
