Sensodyne Repair and Protect Whitening Toothpaste,75 ml (Pack of 1)

Product Information

It takes time for potassium nitrate to work, so there is no instant relief. You need to use these products for a few weeks to see if they work for you, and if they do help – do not stop using them! Ultimately, tooth sensitivity is caused by exposed dentin tubules (the nerves that sense pain lie within these parts of the tooth). A change in hot/cold/pH etc causes movement of the nerve within the tubule, which causes a pain signal to be sent to your brain. Sensitivity persists or worsens. Sensitive teeth may indicate a serious problem that may need prompt care by a dentist.

Potassium nitrate prevents sensitivity by preventing the nerve from passing on the pain message from the tooth to the brain. It is a nerve calming agent. Repair and Protect uses fluoride to repair the teeth. As a result, it is ideal for sensitive teeth. Sensodyne also relieves pain by desensitizing and restoring teeth. To repair teeth, it creates a layer over damaged areas to shield from pain ( see details). There is no need to use Sensodyne with Novamin in addition to the Biomin F. However if you are still getting sensitivity after 2-4 weeks of using Biomin F, you could try using the Sensodyne instead. Sensodyne Repair & Protect is designed to restore teeth by filling exposed holes in the dentin. However, the toothpaste has an RDA rating of 104. The ADA recommended upper limit is 250 This means it features fairly high on the RDA scale. With this in mind, Sensodyne is most suited to those with occasional rather than severe sensitivity. What makes Sensodyne anticavity? When enamel is worn away, or gums recede, the dentine can become exposed, leading to tooth sensitivity with hot and cold foods and drinks. Tooth sensitivity is an ongoing condition and benefits from daily specialist care. Sensodyne is the No.1 dentist recommended brand for sensitive teeth**.Sensodyne fills the tooth and obstructs its nerves. This enables Sensodyne to repair the tooth surface and protect against sensitivity caused by hot and cold foods. Are there any other flavors?

Sensodyne Repair and Protect formulated to create a protective layer over sensitive areas of your teethStrontium chloride doesn’t treat the root cause of the sensitivity and so you may develop tooth sensitivity again in the future. In terms of managing the sensitivity with toothpastes, you will need to give whatever paste you are using some time to work – about 2-4 weeks. If you are still getting symptoms after this it might be because the product isn’t working for you and then it is time to try something different.
