I started having issues with my teeth in my late teens. Before that, I never had a cavity, root canal, or any oral surgery to speak of. Then, my teeth started to become very sensitive. After a trip to the dentist, I discovered that I needed to have my wisdom teeth pulled because they had become impacted and the pressure was affecting the rest of my teeth. Shortly after I had them removed, I started having pain on one side of my mouth, and I was almost certain it was a cavity. The dentist took x-rays and gave me a full examination, only to find that there was nothing wrong with my tooth. Since she didn’t find anything wrong, I went on about my life with this pain and ignored it. A year passed, and I was back in the dentist’s chair for the same reason, this time insisting she missed something the first time. I was unhappy, to say the least, that she couldn’t find where the pain was coming from, and I decided to check out another dentist. His prognosis was the same. I had no cavities, no fractures, and really, no reason to have any pain in my mouth. He suggested a toothpaste for sensitive teeth and sent me on my way.
I was shocked that after about a week my pain was gone. Is this all I needed? After I started feeling better, I began to use regular toothpaste again with no problems. I notice that when the weather changes, the pain comes back. I’m not sure why – but this time every year that same pain is back in my molar. This time, I had the opportunity to try a different toothpaste, along with a sensitive toothbrush to try out. The Colgate Sensitive Pro Relief Toothpaste is different from other sensitive toothpastes because it is clinically proven to get to the source of the pain faster to build a shield at the root of the problem, helping prevent the pain from returning. It can be used twice a day to protect faster and provide relief.
The Colgate 360 Sensitive Toothbrush is great for sensitive teeth because of the ultra soft bristles that are effective at removing buildup. The rigid surface of the bristles provide better cleaning but gentle relief on your teeth and gums. Why 360? Well, this toothbrush is designed to clean the entire mouth, with a built in cheek and tongue cleaner.
