FAQs

  • Why are my teeth sensitive?

    Sensitive teeth, or dentin hypersensitivity, can develop over time as a result of enamel wear and/or receding gums and can occur when the softer, inner part of the tooth called "dentin" becomes exposed. Thousands of microscopic channels run through the dentin toward the center of the tooth, where the nerves lie. Once the dentin is exposed, certain triggers (such as a cold or hot drink) can stimulate the nerves, resulting in that characteristic short, sharp jolt of tooth sensitivity pain. Once dentin is exposed, there is no going back, but you can easily get sensitivity protection by brushing with Sensodyne toothpaste twice a day, every day.

  • What causes sensitive teeth to hurt?

    That sharp shock, jolt, or even minor twinge of pain you feel is usually caused by these common triggers below:

    • Cold foods or drinks.
    • Breathing in cold air.
    • Hot foods or drinks.
    • Sugary foods.
    • Sour foods
    • Brushing your teeth
  • Are sensitive teeth common?

    Yes, having sensitive teeth is a common condition that affects 40% of people, most of whom are between the ages of 20 and 50.

  • Can overbrushing cause sensitive teeth?

    Yes, brushing too hard or too frequently can contribute to gum recession and/or enamel wear, which, over time, can expose the soft, inner layer of your tooth, known as dentin, and can lead to sensitive teeth. The ADA recommends that you brush for 2 minutes twice a day with a soft-bristled or electric toothbrush. Using Sensodyne toothpaste twice a day, every day, can help.

  • Are sensitive teeth a sign of a more serious dental problem?

    There are many different causes of tooth pain other than tooth sensitivity. For example, a cracked tooth or a cavity (tooth decay) can become serious if left untreated. If you are feeling any tooth pain or discomfort, especially if it persists, the best thing you can do is visit your dentist and seek professional advice.

  • What can I do to help my sensitive teeth?

    Although once you have sensitive teeth it cannot be reversed, switching to a daily sensitivity toothpaste, like Sensodyne, can protect against the symptoms of sensitivity when used twice a day, every day. Sensodyne is specially formulated for tooth sensitivity relief and is the #1 dentist recommended toothpaste brand for sensitive teeth.

    In addition, talk to your dentist about the symptoms you are experiencing. Your dentist can confirm whether or not tooth sensitivity is the cause of your tooth pain and then advise you on how to best care for sensitive teeth.

  • What is the #1 dentist recommended toothpaste for sensitive teeth?

    Sensodyne is the #1 dentist recommended toothpaste for sensitive teeth - 9 out of 10 dentists recommend it for patients with sensitive teeth.

  • How does Sensodyne toothpaste work?

    Sensodyne toothpastes work in 1 of 2 ways:

    • Sensodyne toothpastes with potassium nitrate work to soothe the nerves inside your teeth from feeling pain from triggers.
    • Sensodyne toothpastes with stannous fluoride build a protective layer over the exposed dentin to create a barrier from painful triggers. Both formulations are proven to relieve and protect against tooth sensitivity pain when you brush twice a day, every day.
  • How long does Sensodyne toothpaste take to work?

    Sensodyne Rapid Relief can relieve sensitivity in as little as 3 days, while other Sensodyne toothpastes may take up to 2 weeks. It's important to continue brushing with Sensodyne toothpaste twice a day, every day, for lasting tooth sensitivity relief. However, if pain/sensitivity still persists after 4 weeks of use, visit your dentist as your sensitive teeth may indicate a more serious problem. To maintain sensitivity relief, continue to use Sensodyne twice a day as your daily toothpaste.

  • How often should I use Sensodyne toothpaste?

    Use Sensodyne as your daily toothpaste, brushing twice a day, every day, for lasting tooth sensitivity relief. With Sensodyne, you can also get the benefits of fluoride, cavity protection, and fresh breath to help you maintain healthy and sensitivity-free teeth.

  • Will my teeth become sensitive again if I stop using Sensodyne?

    If you stop brushing with Sensodyne toothpaste, your sensitivity can return, so it is best to make Sensodyne your daily toothpaste to get long-lasting relief. All Sensodyne toothpastes also provide the benefits of fluoride, cavity protection, fresh breath, and other benefits.

  • Does Sensodyne toothpaste help prevent cavities?

    Yes. All Sensodyne products contain fluoride, which helps to protect against cavities when you brush twice a day, every day.

  • Can I use Sensodyne toothpaste every day?

    Yes. Sensodyne is a daily toothpaste specially formulated to relieve and protect against tooth sensitivity and is the #1 dentist recommended toothpaste brand for sensitive teeth. Use it every day to help relieve tooth sensitivity and to also keep it from returning.

  • What are the active ingredients in Sensodyne toothpastes?

    Sensodyne toothpastes contain stannous fluoride or potassium nitrate as anti-sensitivity agents that work by either creating a barrier over sensitive areas or by soothing the nerves inside your tooth. All Sensodyne products contain fluoride, which helps fight against cavities, so you can maintain healthy teeth, every day. Most Sensodyne toothpastes are also free of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), an inactive ingredient that makes toothpastes foamy when brushing.

  • Does Sensodyne toothpaste have fluoride?

    All Sensodyne toothpastes contain fluoride, which is a naturally occurring mineral that rapidly enters mineralized tissue, such as bone and developing teeth. It hardens tooth enamel, protecting against tooth decay (cavities), so you can maintain healthy teeth every day.

  • What is stannous fluoride and how is it used in Sensodyne toothpaste?

    Stannous fluoride is a type of fluoride that builds a robust layer over the exposed, soft, inner part of your tooth called dentin, acting like a shield for your sensitive teeth. This layer helps prevent triggers, like hot and cold liquids, from reaching the nerves and causing pain. Sensodyne Complete Protection, Sensodyne Repair and Protect, Sensodyne Rapid Relief and Sensodyne Sensitivity and Gum toothpastes all contain stannous fluoride.

  • What is potassium nitrate and how is it used in Sensodyne toothpaste?

    Potassium nitrate is a mineral that helps soothe the nerves inside your teeth, preventing triggers, like a burst of cold air or hot coffee, from causing sensitivity pain. Sensodyne Essential Care and Sensodyne True White toothpastes all contain potassium nitrate.

  • Does Sensodyne toothpaste contain SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate)?

    Most Sensodyne toothpastes are also free of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), an inactive ingredient that makes toothpastes foamy when brushing.

  • Does Sensodyne toothpaste contain triclosan?

    Sensodyne toothpastes do not contain triclosan.

  • Is Sensodyne toothpaste gluten free?

    Sensodyne products do not contain gluten as a direct ingredient. However, GSK do not exclude the presence of trace amounts of gluten in these products as a result of third-party manufacturing processes because GSK Consumer Healthcare does not test the final products for gluten.

  • Are Sensodyne toothpastes kosher?

    GSK Consumer Healthcare only uses high-quality ingredients in its products. Following a review of the product formulations and supplier documentation, GSK have not received confirmation from all suppliers that all individual ingredients are certified as halal and/or kosher. As a result, GSK have not formally confirmed or labeled the finished products as halal or kosher. Prior to using a product, GSK recommend you always check the list of ingredients printed on the pack and follow the label instructions.

  • Does Sensodyne toothpaste come in different varieties?

    Sensodyne toothpaste comes in many different variations to meet individual needs and preferences. All GSK toothpastes contain fluoride, which helps to protect teeth from cavities.

  • How does Sensodyne Rapid Relief toothpaste work?

    Sensodyne Rapid Relief toothpaste uses an active ingredient called stannous fluoride to build a protective barrier over exposed dentin, the inner layer of your teeth. At the first brush, it starts to form a shield that quickly blocks the tiny holes in the sensitive areas of your teeth. Brushing twice a day, every day, provides clinically significant sensitivity relief in as little as 3 days and thereafter, giving you the relief you want in the time you need it.

  • Is Sensodyne Rapid Relief toothpaste right for me?

    If you want to beat sensitivity pain fast, Sensodyne Rapid Relief toothpaste provides clinically proven sensitivity relief in just 3 days when you brush twice a day, every day. Sensodyne Rapid Relief is available in either Mint or Extra Fresh flavors.

  • How often should I use Sensodyne Rapid Relief toothpaste?

    Use Sensodyne Rapid Relief (or any Sensodyne toothpaste) as your daily toothpaste, brushing twice a day, every day, for lasting sensitivity relief - along with the benefits of fluoride, cavity protection, and fresh breath - so you can maintain healthy teeth.

  • Is Sensodyne an abrasive toothpaste?

    No. All Sensodyne toothpastes comply with the American Dental Association (ADA), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) guidelines for daily-use toothpastes.

  • Is Sensodyne toothpaste available in a travel-sized tube?

    Sensodyne Rapid Relief Mint, Sensodyne Sensitivity and Gum Mint, Sensodyne Extra Whitening, Sensodyne Fresh Impact, and Sensodyne Deep Clean are available in a travel size.

  • Can kids use Sensodyne toothpaste?

    Sensodyne toothpaste is not recommended for use by children under the age of 12. Sensitivity is rarely a problem in children that young. Check with your child's dentist for appropriate advice and recommendation.

  • Is there a link between sensitive teeth and bleeding gums?

    Sensitive teeth and gum problems can go hand in hand. If you're dealing with sensitivity pain, you could also be suffering from gum recession - a cause of tooth sensitivity. Things like aggressive brushing, or even just using a hard-bristled toothbrush can lead to gum recession. Once gums recede, dentin becomes exposed, making the tooth nerves vulnerable to triggers, causing sensitivity. And if you're experiencing redness, swelling and bleeding gums often - the early signs of gum disease - they could also cause your gums to recede. So, you can see how both conditions can be related.

  • What is enamel erosion?

    Enamel erosion occurs when your tooth enamel, the outer, white protective layer of your teeth, wears away, which can cause you to experience tooth sensitivity. Enamel wear can happen as a result of teeth grinding, aggressive brushing, or an acidic diet. Once enamel wears away, it cannot grow back.

  • What causes enamel wear?

    Over time, acidic foods and drinks - such as fruit and fruit juices, coffee and tea, ketchup, or salad dressing - can wear away your tooth enamel. This is also known as acid erosion. Other causes of enamel wear include teeth grinding and aggressive brushing.

    To help protect your teeth against enamel erosion, talk to your dentist and use a fluoride toothpaste specially formulated to help strengthen tooth enamel, such as Pronamel.

  • Can enamel erosion cause sensitive teeth?

    Yes. Enamel is the hard, protective surface of the tooth. Over time, if tooth enamel wears away, it exposes the soft, yellow inner layer known as dentin. This can cause tooth sensitivity as the protection the enamel provides to the tooth and the nerves inside is reduced. This is why, if you have enamel erosion, eating ice cream or sipping hot soup can be painful.

  • Should I use Sensodyne or Pronamel toothpaste?

    Sensodyne toothpastes help relieve tooth sensitivity and Pronamel toothpastes help strengthen and protect tooth enamel.

  • How does Sensodyne Rapid Relief Whitening toothpaste work?

    Sensodyne Rapid Relief Whitening toothpaste uses an active ingredient called stannous fluoride to build a protective barrier over exposed dentin, the inner layer of your teeth. At the first brush, it starts to form a shield that quickly blocks the tiny holes in the sensitive areas of your teeth. It also contains sodium tripolyphosphate, which gently lifts and helps prevent surface tooth stains from forming. Brushing twice a day, every day, provides clinically significant sensitivity relief in as little as 3 days and thereafter and whitens teeth.

  • Will Sensodyne Rapid Relief Whitening toothpaste make my teeth whiter in 3 days?

    No. Sensodyne Rapid Relief Whitening toothpaste is specially formulated to relieve tooth sensitivity pain in as little 3 days with twice daily brushing. Since it also contains sodium tripolyphosphate, you can expect to have whiter teeth over time, as it gently lifts and helps prevent surface tooth stains from forming.

  • Does Sensodyne toothpaste whiten teeth?

    Yes.

  • Is Sensodyne toothpaste safe to use after professional tooth-whitening treatments?

    Tooth sensitivity can occur during and after professional whitening treatments, when the bleaching agents are believed to penetrate the tooth, though the sensitivity is often temporary. Sensodyne toothpastes can help alleviate sensitivity following tooth-whitening treatments. Speak to your dentist about bleaching-related sensitivity if you are considering having a tooth-whitening treatment. Use Sensodyne toothpastes as directed on the product label.

  • Why are my teeth sensitive after whitening?

    Professional bleaching treatments may cause you to experience sensitive teeth after whitening, but this is usually temporary. Some at-home whitening remedies can make tooth sensitivity worse. If you are looking for a whitening solution that is gentle on your sensitive teeth, try Sensodyne True White.

  • How does Sensodyne True White work?

    Sensodyne True White toothpaste contains sodium tripolyphosphate, which gently lifts and helps prevent surface tooth stains from forming. Sensodyne True White also contains potassium nitrate, which helps relieve sensitivity by soothing the nerves inside your teeth. By brushing twice a day with Sensodyne True White, you can have both sensitivity relief and whiter teeth.

  • How often should I use Sensodyne True White toothpaste?

    Use Sensodyne True White twice a day, every day
