Has Sensodyne helped your teeth/gums feel less temperature sensitive?

Yes, have been using Sensodyne for years. Haven't had sensitivity issues in a long time. The toothpaste with Novamin works better and has other benefits, but is significantly more expensive than the Pronamel line (also available at Costco!) which is cheaper but also effective against sensitivity imo

Yes, I've found the versions with potassium nitrate to work best for me. And non-whitening too, I think they are a little less abrasive.

What helped the most though is convincing my dentist to give me a fluoride treatment at my checkup every 6 months. Where I live, they stop providing those by default around age 12.

Edit: ope, I just got billed for the fluoride treatment from my recent visit. Reason given: "patient is over age limit for this benefit". Hot trash. Our teeth don't stop needing fluoride at age 12, the insurance companies just don't want to pay for it.

So pay attention to insurance coverage and charging if you decide to try it.

I tried it and it seems I'm one of those people sensitive to the formula so after a few days I had bleeding gums and constant pain. I stopped using it and things went back to normal.

I tried two more times with different varieties, thinking perhaps I got a bad batch or maybe whatever irritates me wouldn't be present in other sensodyne variety but no. Same results. Dentist said it happens to some people.

It had some limited effect when I used it for a while. For me it wasn't good enough so I switched to a more environmentally friendly toothpaste

It used to work for me pretty well but if you do use it, make sure to alternate with another anti-cavity toothpaste. I had crazy tartar build up until I switched away from it as recommended by my dentist. Using Crest Sensitivity Relief now and have had much better check ups at the dentist.

I use it, and seems to work for me. Used to have pain from cold stuff amd now I don't even notice it.

You need to check ingredients , ai can do this usuay from a picture for you.

Usually even cheap brands from Discounter have the same proven stuff in it.

I use it, and it has more helped with exposed tooth root sensitivity. Are you consistent with using it? I'm pretty sure it takes at least a few days to a week to build effectiveness and you have to keep using it without substitution.

I haven’t used it in a while, but yes, it did. It took a while to be effective, and it did eventually plateau, but even though I no longer use it my teeth are far less sensitive than they were 10 years ago.
