Sensodyne

How does it help?

Sensitive tooth are caused by receding gums and enamel wear. It begins when the softer, inner part of the tooth called ‘dentine’ becomes exposed. Dentine lies under the enamel and the gums.

Thousands of microscopic channels run through the dentine towards the centre of the tooth. Once the dentine is exposed, external triggers (such as a cold drink) can stimulate the nerves inside the tooth, resulting in the characteristic short, sharp pain of tooth sensitivity.

Sensodyne products are formulated with Pronamel which helps to re-harden your tooth enamel. Pronamel® is specially designed to help re-harden precious, acid-softened tooth enamel. With a low-abrasive, pH neutral formulation, Pronamel® toothpaste helps protect your enamel while you brush your teeth.
