Out of all the toothpaste I have used, this one is by far the best. It helps with tooth sensitivity and it also doesn’t make my gums peel- I have an allergy to some of the ingredients that are in many toothpastes.

Stephanie Meracdo profile picture
I’ve started using these and they actually lighten. It also works well with my sensitive teeth- I’ve had no issues especially with using the sensodyne toothpaste I have listed. I also live to cut them in half; lasts me so much longer than 2 weeks.

Stephanie Meracdo profile picture
It’s been around one month since I’ve been using this, and it keeps my gums healthy and clean. Sometimes the floss doesn’t rid of all the food, and with incorporating the water pick, my mouth is cleaner. I also add some mouth wash to the chamber.
