Efficacy of Fluoride Varnish Containing Xylitol Coated Calcium Phosphate Versus Conventional Fluoride Varnish in Management of Hypersensitivity of Exposed Root Surfaces in Adult Patients

This clinical trial will be conducted to compare the efficacy of fluoride varnish containing xylitol coated calcium and phosphate or potassium nitrate gel versus conventional fluoride varnish in the management of hypersensitivity of non-carious exposed root surfaces in adult patients over a 12 months period.
