One of the causes of dentine hypersensitivity is the presence of various periodontal diseases in patients. In order to obtain long-term results in reducing the level of pain in hypersensitivity of the teeth, it is necessary to optimize existing treatments. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment of dentine hypersensitivity in patients with generalized periodontitis of chronic course with the combined use of low-intensity laser therapy and propolis tincture. Object and methods. The study involved 104 patients with dentine hypersensitivity and generalized periodontitis of chronic course. In group 1, treatment was performed using a varnish based on sodium fluoride, in 2 – propolis tincture, in 3 – low-intensity laser therapy, in group 4 – using a combined use of propolis tincture and low-intensity laser therapy. To assess the severity of used the method of pulp testing. Indicators of the excitability threshold of the tooth pulp were measured according to the generally accepted method at classical points, as well as in the area of increased sensitivity of the teeth. The obtained values were evaluated before treatment, immediately after treatment, one week, 1 month, 3 months, six months and one year after treatment in each group. Statistical significance of the results was assessed in IBM SPSS Statistics, Trial (Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.). Research results. At the classical points, the indicators were approximately the same throughout the study period and no statistical significance was found when comparing them (p>0.05). When measured in areas of hypersensitivity, statistical significance was found as early as one month after treatment in the third and fourth groups. One year later, the rates were significantly higher than before treatment (p<0.05). Conclusions. Thus, according to the analysis of the obtained results, the indicators of electrical excitability in a year in fourth group increased, which may indicate the stability of the clinical effect of treatment.
