cookiemonster66 is this any use?

I have problems with toothpaste in that I detest peppermint but also have sensitive teeth. So my choices are very limited, but my dentist is happy with my teeth cleaningColgate Sensifoam whitening is a good toothpaste and tastes more like spearment than peppermint but it's not easy to find and a lot of shops don't stock it. All the extras that are available with cavity protection, fresh breath etc. are not even considered for me. By the way my dentist told me that I caused my sensitive teeth by using an electric toothbrush with a hard bristle and pressing too hard, these days I know modern brushes have a presure sensitivity built in but I now find they make my teeth feel like they are shaking my teeth out of the sockets.

My dentist told me that as long as the toothpaste has fluoride then use it 80p supermarket own or £6.00 brand.

... if you have sensitivity you need one that actually works though!

Silverbrooks, our dental receptionist/manager is very mean with any sample tubes, you practically have to beg or prise them from her to get one, we would never get a few😆anybody would think she was buying you one herself out of her own salary the way she acts.

I use ASDA toothpaste, 50p a tube. I don’t believe all these added benefits work. Where is the proof!

I find that the Sensifoam Whitening toothpaste from Colgate works very well. But I know what you mean, sensitive teeth are a nightmare.

We use Total Colgate and use the one for Deep Clean and Gum protection as have been told its your Gums you need to take care of .

I hate the tastes of mint and artificial sweeteners. I use the tiniest possible amount and think it’s the brushing which matters not the toothpaste.

I have the sensitive tooth paste from Aldi. It has the usual amount of fluoride and does well for my teeth. I do brush and spit. It seems to work fine.

I alternate between Corsodyl and Sensodyne. As has been stated earlier, Corsodyl takes a bit of getting used to but my teeth feel really clean when I use it. I do have really sensitive teeth ( check ups are a nightmare; proper Marathon Man stuff) and wonder how Sensodyne works because it’s so effective. I’ve had to stop buying their toothbrushes though, as they’ve changed the shape and they hurt my gums.

Be careful about using Corsodyl. It contains chemicals that can cause allergic reactions.

I was recommended to use Corsodyl mouth wash on one side of my mouth only, thankfully, after having an implant. That side of my face became very swollen with a huge bruise along my jaw line, where the remnants of the Corsodyl pooled despite spitting it out.

An acquaintance saw me like that - and thought I had suffered domestic violence! An appalling misjudgment of my DH, who has never been prone to violence. I had to show her the stitches and new tooth to prove her wrong.

My dog prefers the poultry-flavoured toothpaste.

I use Colgate plaque removal and deep clean. At one time it was just toothpaste but there are so many different types now and the price has risen a lot. I tend to bulk buy when there are offers on.
GD has a problem with the peppermint flavour of toothpaste and her mum has to seek out other flavours.

I prefer to use Colgate Total Care and usually buy two or three tubes when they are on offer. I have OralB electric tooth brush and head should be changed every three months. I do not put water on to brush before brushing and do not rinse out after, just spit out. My teeth are tight together so I have to use fine inter-dent brush to clean in between before brushing.

As far as I know, it doesn’t really matter, so long as you floss

I go for a kids’ boots own brand one as it has lower fluoride, and doesn’t irritate my mouth with ‘extra minty freshness’, and doesn’t have silica oxide in it.

I think I’ll try a children’s toothpaste, perhaps they don’t taste so awful as adult ones.

Do you like fennel?
