Abstract: Background: To evaluate the immediate efficacy in the reduction of dentine hypersensitivity (DH) when applying an 808±10 nm diode laser (DL) with topical Bifluorid 12® (6%NaF and 6%CaF). Materials and Methods: The study was conducted on 90 teeth with DH assessed by tactile and cold air stimuli measured by Numeric Rating Scale(NRS). Teeth were randomly divided into G1(30 teeth) treated by Bifluorid 12®; G2(30 teeth) lased at 0.5 W with continuous, noncontact mode with 400μ fibre. Each tooth received one application; G3(30 teeth) received Bifluorid 12® plus laser at same G2 th parameters. NRS was checked before starting the treatment and 15 to 30 mins after irradiating and on the 7 day. Results: Significant pain reduction was seen. The NRS reduction percentages were calculated, and there was a significant decrease of DH in G3 than G2 and G1. Conclusion: Diode laser is a useful device for DH treatment if used alone and in combination with Bifluorid 12®
