Adjusted mean change from baseline, 95% confidence intervals and p‐value from ANCOVA model with treatment and study as factors (and Schiff sensitivity score for tactile threshold) and baseline Schiff sensitivity score or tactile threshold, as appropriate, as covariate
Negative difference favours the test toothpaste for the Schiff sensitivity score; positive difference favours the test toothpaste for the tactile threshold score
