DH was assessed by means of air stimulus. A visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to measure DH. The selected teeth in three groups received laser therapy for three sessions. The measurements were performed before each treatment session and at 30\u2009min after the laser application (immediate effect), and additional measurements were also performed at 15, 30, and 60 days after the conclusion of treatment (late effect) to assess the extent of desensitization obtained with the different laser devices.\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Results:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    Significant reduction of DH occurred at all times measured during the three treatment sessions in groups treated with Er:YAG, Nd:YAG, and diode lasers. Comparing the means of the responses in the three treatment sessions of the four groups, Group b showed a higher degree of desensitization in teeth with gingival recession compared with the other groups (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). The immediate and late therapeutic effects of group b were more evident compared with the other groups.\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Conclusions:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    The Er:YAG, Nd:YAG, and diode lasers can be used to reduce DH. Nd:YAG laser irradiation is more effective in the treatment of DH than are Er:YAG and diode laser. Within the limitations of the present study, the Nd:YAG laser seems to be a suitable tool for successful reduction of DH, especially because the 3-month results of this treatment modality are promising.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/pho.2009.2593","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,10,8]],"date-time":"2010-10-08T11:06:09Z","timestamp":1286535969000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["Clinical Evaluation of Er:YAG, Nd:YAG, and Diode Laser Therapy for Desensitization of Teeth with Gingival Recession"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"Alparslan","family":"Dilsiz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ataturk University","place":["Turkey"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tugba","family":"Aydin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ataturk University","place":["Turkey"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Varol","family":"Canakci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ataturk University","place":["Turkey"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Metin","family":"Gungormus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ataturk University","place":["Turkey"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14219\/jada.archive.2006.0321"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1600-051x.2000.027010715.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0011-8532(22)01131-4"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1600-051X.2002.291104.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"242","DOI":"10.1016\/0300-5712(87)90045-5","article-title":"Dentine hypersensitivity: the distribution of recession, sensitivity and plaque","volume":"15","author":"Addy M.","year":"1987","unstructured":"Addy M., , Mostafa P., , Newcombe R.G. 1987.
