Exploring Some Aspects Associated with Dentine Hypersensitivity in Children

Table 4

Multiple Poisson regression analysis between independent variables and presence of dental hypersensitivity.

Salivary parameters	Adjusted prevalence ratio; (95% confidence interval)
Final multiple model 1		0.021
Salivary flow (mL/min)	2.49 (1.05 to 5.91)
Presence of dental erosion	2.23 (1.05 to 4.71)
Final multiple model 2		<0.001
Salivary flow (mL/min)	2.88 (1.58 to 5.25)
Bitter taste	2.36 (1.38 to 4.02)
Simplified Oral Hygiene Index	0.47 (0.23 to 0.97)
