Sensibilidad post tallada de las incrustaciones en la clínica de la UCSG 2023.

Abstract

Introduction: Dental preparation is a mechanical preparation of the tooth to restore oral health. Therefore, the procedure is often accompanied by the problem of dentin hypersensitivity (DH) among patients. Objective: Determine the prevalence of post-carving sensitivity of inlays in the UCSG 2023 clinic. Materials and methods: The present investigation is an observational clinical design study, prospective crosssectional type that was generated through a form focused on post-carving sensitivity. Once the data was obtained, it was tabulated in Excel to obtain descriptive statistics. Results: 76% of people who present sensitivity are women between 30-39 years old (66%). The type of inlay that generated the greatest sensitivity was the onlay type in 74%, 84% generated a moderate degree of sensitivity. Finally, 100% of the students used immediate dentin sealing to control post-cutting hypersensitivity. Conclusion: A high prevalence of moderate dentinal hypersensitivity after dental carving has been observed. Keywords: inlays, dentinal hypersensitivity, prevalence, onlay.
