Sensodyne Repair & Protect

Have used/ purchased Sensodyne Toothpaste for years. In the past few months the product has been less than useful. It has become extremely watery and is no longer the product it once was. I have purchased 3 tubes all from different stores, all the same, obviously it is being watered down to create more profits. Typical Show details

It actually works (for me) – I have long been dubious about these products, so I checked out the ratings on Amazon to work out what to try. This came up and to my surprise it has worked really well. My coffee stained teeth are getting whiter each week and I have not had any of the problems others have noted. I have had a big problems with mouth ulcers in the past but not for a while. I also do a custom treatment with ginger, bicarb and peroxide once a week. Show details

Nightmare – Cannot believe this product is still sold to the general public. Horrible experience all around. Multiple ulcers, blisters, dry mouth, numb lips, sore bumpy burnt tongue, swollen inflamed gums, sores on inner cheeks, roof of mouth feels burnt, back of throat painful, even some nausea, diarrhoea…all of this with just 2-3 days of use. I’ve now… Read more

discontinued use and my mouth is in such trauma, it’s going to take DAYS maybe WEEKS to recover.

About 9 months ago, I was mid pregnancy and was given a free sample of sensodyne from the dentist - I used it immediately. I had dry mouth and ulcers. I didn’t realise at the time but it was the toothpaste! I blamed possible gestational diabetes, low vitamin levels, not enough water in pregnancy, etc! My obstetrician was baffled and suggested blood tests to check my vitamin b & c. Looking back now, it was the toothpaste all along! Now I’ve connected all the dots, due to my more recent bad experience.

Do not buy!!

Makes sensitivity worse – I am a dental therapist and have some gingival recession and exposed dentine on some teeth. I was given a tube of this paste at a dental conference and after using Colgate Total for years decided to swap to this as my sensitivity was causing trouble with eating and drinking. This product made my teeth more sensitive and gave me terrible bad… Read more

breath. When I smeared it onto my worst areas the pain was intense and took a few minutes to resolve. I won't be recommending this tooth paste.

soreness – I had been using Sensodyne products for years, but when the formula for the repair and protect toothpaste came out I began experiencing consistent pain on my tongue and underneath my tongue. In addition to peeling skin on my lips that resulted in sores and redness that lasted days until I discontinued use. Other than that the toothpaste was good. If you are not sensitive to the new ingredients added, its a good choice. Show details

Mouth ulcers – I had used this product for many years. Regularly had sore tongue and mouth ulcers Only after changing to Grants did I realise it was this toothpaste. Show details

It reduced my sensitivity – I believe it didn't clean my teeth or gums well as I developed gingivitis and the bacteria made my gum and bone become inflammed...I'm sure it could have been dangerous if left. Show details

Amazing, works in seconds, thank you, I'm stocking up, this is magical and fast, best!!!!??? – Fast quick relief, best thing ever, having a emergency tooth ache. This is like morphine So good 10/10 So good no side effects Amazing, works like a charm Thanks so much your life saver. Show details

New formulation made my mouth sore – I used this toothpaste in the past and had no problems. Started using it again recently and the inside of my mouth has become sore and uncomfortable. A different brand of toothpaste that contains stannous fluoride caused me the same problem, so I'm thinking that ingredient could be the culprit. Show details

Sensodyne toothpaste repair and protect – my teeth were constantly sensitive to hot and cold since I've used sensodyne repair & protect I've noticed a huge difference no more hot and cold teeth. I love this product . Show details

Sensodyne complete care – It's a good toothpaste, but it's only 3/4 full of toothpaste.. It's an expensive product, so I won't be buying it again.. Calling the packaging 100g and not filling it to 100g is a joke.. Back to another brand I will go.. Show details

Great product – Have been using sensodyne repair and protect for three months now after taking a dentist's recommendation. I am now not experiencing sensitivity in the problem teeth. It saved me a fortune because expensive dental procedures was the only other option. Show details

Caused more issues – This product has caused the inside lining of my mouth and my tongue to become painfully red and inflamed and ulcerated. When I stopped using it it went away within a day. It also made my teeth become more sensitive while using it. Total waste of money as it does the opposite to what it claims. Show details

this product has caused such pain and expense – Started using this product after dentist recommendation - I used Sensodyne Original previously with no problems. Slowly it has built up to horrendous teeth/mouth pain. Had several dentist visits (costly and painful) but nothing was helping. Did not for one minute think the toothpaste was causing it - as soon as I changed toothpaste the teeth… Read more

started to gradually become less painful. Now 2 weeks after stopping using the repair & protect toothpaste my mouth as almost returned to normal. Would never use any Sensodyne product ever again after such an horrendous experience and seemingly not being the only one.

Painless – Both cynic and skeptic I decided to purchase this product in what I thought would be a vain attempt to alleviate the sudden tooth sensitivity I experienced. Much to my joy and relief after only two days most of the pain has been aleaveated. After a week of sleepless nights and almost willing to take a pair of pliers to my teeth I was more than satisfied with the result.Recomended.

Excruciatingly painful – My dentist recommended this toothpaste.Every time I brush my teeth with this toothpaste was excruciating pain in nearly every tooth. And eating chocolate at easter was horrific. Changed back to Colgate and no pain.

This product hurt my teeth when brushing – Whenever I brushed my teeth with this product I was in pain. Brushing over certain teeth would send a shiver through me and it was extremely uncomfortable. I decided to try another toothpaste and swap back to Sensodyne occasionally to see if the same thing happened. I had absolutely no discomfort with other toothpastes but whenever I… Read more

swapped back to Sensodyne the painful shiver returned.

I can only conclude from this - that Sensodyne toothpaste contributes to sensitive teeth and makes them worse.

I won't be wasting my money in future.

Too much foam – Too much foam despite using only a tiny bit of toothpaste, makes me gag and end up with foam running up my arm as well as all over my face, not exaggerating very messy. I hope they fix this as they usually have such great products.

Loved it! – This is the second sensodyne product ive ever used and i must say i think i've found my favorite. It had a weird 'warming?' sensation that is really pleasant. The paste is good consistency (not too watery) and had a separate lid as opposed to a flip lid. In regards to performance I felt that it actually worked really well to repair my teeth… Read more

(which aren't in the best shape). At night i combine it with a tooth mousse (which assists in improving damaged enamal) however i feel like i almost dont even need that anymore. 10/10 'warming sensation', good results (clean and repair of teeth) None
