This study aimed to evaluate dental and periodontal health after interproximal enamel reduction and to compare Laser diode (a device used in the Orthodontic Program) and sodium fluoride (often used in the Orthodontic Program and in the Material Dental Program). The hypothesis was that the intervention groups would show a lower dentin hypersensitivity incidence than the control group during orthodontic treatment.
