Sensodyne PronamelMint Essence Toothpaste, 4 oz. (Pack of 4)

I find this tastes like brushing your teeth with minty vanilla candy. Hooray!Started using Sensodyne Pronamel a few years ago after being tipped off to Dr. Ellie's "Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye" system (dumb name). Always used mainline toothpastes before, but it was time for a drastic change. (After being a perfect angel child about brushing/candy and never having a single cavity--even through a few years of braces--until my early twenties, suddenly, boom--3 in one year. Apparently, chronic sleep deprivation compromises your immune system in a way that can exacerbate tooth decay. And also cranberry juice.) I was so scarred from the Year of Cavities that I (counterintuitively) avoided the dentist's for several years thereafter--just did my regular sonicare routine, plus some xylitol gum if I happened to have any around. I was much too lazy for the full Dr Ellie system--the only real change I made was switching to Pronamel.Finally went again last week--no new cavities, everything in great shape. This despite consuming, daily, a large number of chocolate or candied espresso beans, and about 3-5 cups of strong coffee/tea; plus I still don't sleep much. So I completely credit Pronamel with keeping my teeth pain- and cavity-free for these past few years. (And I'm also pretty sure they're also whiter than they used to be, when I was using whatever Colgate/Crest whitening nonsense and not drinking coffee--which is crazy.) Magic; lifesaver--I will stockpile this if it ever ends production.

This has been my favorite toothpaste and I introduced it to my husband who loves it as well. There is no other on the regular market to match in being non abrasive, clean the teeth great, whiten and brighten, and have an excellent taste. Recently because of mouth and tongue sensitivity issues, my dentist witched me to Cari Free. However it is very expensive and when I travel, or go to the gym to work out, I take the Sensodyne with me as an alternative. My husband however continues to use this product. I highly recommend it.

This product listing is completely inaccurate. The math shown on the page gives us an unambiguous price per ounce. If you divide the price by price per ounce, you get the total ounces. This makes it clear the number of ounces I expect, which is 16oz. (The text alone says 4 oz (4 pack) which is ambiguous).The pricing is also misleading because it's around the price that you'd pay for 4 tubes of 4 ounces in a store. They're pricing this way to deceive the customer.Anyways, I received 4 tubes of 0.8 oz which adds insult to injury (3.2 oz isn't even 4 oz). And the flavor is even wrong. I received Alpine Breeze instead of Mint Essence.

This toothpaste has helped with my sensitivity without a doubt. Before, I could barely handle hot or cold anything exposed to my teeth. Now, I can have either with no problems. Mind you, I still can't bite straight into ice cream or anything... it's not magic, but I can tolerate hot and cold much better. I also started using it while bleaching, and it completely cut out the sensitivity that comes along with that. Now that is worth it in itself! It has a smooth minty taste and texture but doesn't foam much like some people appreciate. I think that is why it doesn't tear up the inside of my mouth like many toothpastes with high SLS are prone to do. I will continue using this toothpaste... it's worth it and better than many other sensitivity toothpastes I have tried.

This tooth paste is one of the few tooth paste that does not have that chemical which creates a lot of foams when you brush your teeth. Those foams are actually bad for your gum. My gum used to be quite sensitive until I use this tooth paste. Taking co-enzyme (especially made by Jarrow) Q10 also helps my gum. Another food that is also very good for gum is Clarified Butter, if you can find a good one like those that were made in India. I bought the Purity Farms, Organic Ghee Clarified Butter. The reason so many people have gum diseases and gum problems are we no longer drink grass feed (organic) mile or butter made from such milk.

When you sign up for Amazon Prime, you immediately forget about going to the store because you can just order the things you need as soon as you think about it. In my early days as a Prime member, I purchased some toothpaste. After a few months, I noticed that my teeth were feeling sensitive each morning, so I asked a hygienist who told me some things that would cause such an issue. One of those things was the toothpaste I had ordered a few months back.Being an Amazon Prime member, I immediately subscribed to Sensodyne toothpaste so that I can save even more. My hygienist was surprised at how good the price was compared to brick and mortar. After just a week of use, my sensitivity is gone!

Having sensitive teeth for a very long time, Sensodyne is the only product I use that helps me deal with the pain from hot or cold foods. While it doesn't completely get rid of the pains, it does reduce it tremendously where it's only a discomfort versus "Oh My God I can't eat this". The additional enamel strengthening while I can't verify if it works does seem to improve the look of my front teeth where I use to have two spots that look worn down from what I think is tooth decay. Overall I recommend Sensodyne over any of those leading name brands like Colgate, Crest or Aquafresh.

The description clearly states that this is "Mint Essence" Sensodyne toothpaste, but it is NOT! The color of the tubes and the caps on the tubes are the same color as the Mint Essence flavor, but it is not Mint Essence! It has an AWFUL FLAVOR that left a horrible taste in my mouth for two days after using it. Deceptive advertising.
