anyone suggest the best ones? I have always used colgate standard toothpaste twice a day and listerine orignal, still teeth dont seem to be that clean...?
also - non smoker, great diet go to the dentist often.
My dentist recommends sensodyne pronamel (not sure if that's the right spelling) flipping expensive though, and its heavily advertised, so makes me wonder if its a collaboration between the dentist and the manufacturers!
Does make your teeth feel lovely and clean though!
Hi there cub, boy you're having a total make-over
aint you? How's yer hair rolling this week?In anticipation
of your post dated. 7/4/21 I'd recommend Wilkinson's
extra long side-cutting nail clippers.Hope I've
helped you a little there.
slinkycat - I use Sensodyne Pronamel as well. I do find that it helps a lot with sensitive teeth. It's a long time since I've had an 'ouch' moment from eating ice cream!
My dentist reckons the tooth-whitening toothpastes are a waste of money and they don't really make any significant difference, and some can in fact harm your teeth by wearing away at the enamel.
If so, teeth aren't supposed to be pure white, aka Simon Cowell styly! The only way to get gleaming toothy pegs like that is to pay to have it done, and it aint cheap.
I was using Colgate proenamel which I found great for sensitive teeth. I`ve been using Tesco`s own version since Saturday & found it as good as the much more expensive Colgate.
I find that these days they all have something to boast about so I flit from one brand to another each time I shop, wondering why they don't all do every miracle protection/clean/"repair"/whitening/desensiti
se/whatever.
Interesting to see all votes for one particular brand at the moment.
What I really need is a brand that stops the teeth drifting around and creating gaps. Last couple of years have been a tooth opener period.
We've recently changed to oral b as the macleans one we used to use was discontinued. I'm glad we have though as this oral b one is much nicer. It's a fairly stiff blue gel with some small gritty bits in and tastes more antiseptic than minty, a bit like germolene. Leaves your mouth feeling really clean.
I think it's called oral b pronamel, clean mint flavour.
If you use a manual toothbrush, the biggest improvement will come from changing to an electric/sonic one. My dentist actually commented - "I can see you're using an electric toothbrush now".
Probably a coincidence, but my teeth seemed to take a turn for the worse when I swopped to an electric 'sonic' brush. I've a sneaking suspicion it vibrates the fillings !
OG. My teeth have been nothing but trouble since following
dentists advice & switching to electric toothbrush. Could be;
A)Age related coincidence
B)Wrong advice for older people
C)Money-making conspiracy by fatcat dentists
