Abstract：Objective To expore the clinical efficacy of 810 nm diode laser combined with adhesive in the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity in elderly patients,and to provide a basis for optimizing the treatment plan.Methods A total of 105 elderly patients with dentin hypersensitivity who visited the Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics at the Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from January to December 2022 were randomly assigned into three groups:Group A(semiconductor laser treatment,35 patients),Group B(adhesive treatment,35 patients),and Group C(combined treatment,35 patients).The improvement of symptoms before surgery,immediately after surgery,1 week after surgery and 2 months after surgery was evaluated through the difference in the Visual Analog Scale(VAS),and the therapeutic effects were followed up and compared.Results The VAS score changes immediately after treatment and 1 week post-treatment were significantly greater in Group C compared to Groups A and B(P＜0.05).However,no significant differences were observed between the groups at 2 months post-treatment(P＞0.05).Conclusion The 810 nm semiconductor laser combined with adhesive desensitization technology has a significant immediate analgesic effect and can improve the short-term therapeutic effect.It is recommended as the preferred treatment option for dentinal hypersensitivity in the elderly.
