I recently had to see the dentist as I had extreme pain in my teeth and thought I was going to need a filling. Although I didn't need a filling, I did discover that I had receding gums which meant that my nerves were exposed. He recommended a sensitive toothpaste and when I told my friend she recommended Sensodyne Repair & Protect Toothpaste Whitening Toothpaste.
Although it is triple the price of my regular toothpaste I was willing to give anything a try! The toothpaste was mildly minty and not as strong as my regular toothpaste but 100% effective! I have been using a pea sized amount both morning and night and can honestly say that it has stopped my teeth and gums hurting. I can eat ice cream, I can drink hot drinks and I do not get any pain! I don't know if it's made my teeth any whiter but the fact that it has stopped my teeth and gums hurting means it's worth it's weight in gold!!
Tastes good, makes my teeth less sensitive, I'll never use a non-sensitive toothpaste again! Only downside is that it's a bit more expensive than normal toothpaste.
Tips: Definitely use if you have sensitive teeth
