Misleading advertising, November 21, 2008

Here's a test. Go to [...] and compare the active ingredients of Pronamel to Crest Sensitivity. Then, compare the claims of both. Why does Pronamel claim to re-mineralize teeth, fight acidity, and be 'specially' formulated for people who drink sodas, wines, etc. and Crest does not? Answer: because EVERY TOOTH-PASTE REMINERALIZES TEETH and Pronamel does it no better. Just compare the active ingredients. Same amount of fluoride, tons of advertising.

Good deal, October 8, 2008
From the very first use I felt a difference. I have gingivitis so I'm extremely sensitive to hot/cold. This definately works and is worth the $.
Enamel restoration, believe it, October 6, 2008

My teeth have been getting the pitted indentations near the gumline for several years now. The front teeth edges have been slowly getting more and more transparent. The dentist only suggested I wear a mouth guard at night, which I have started doing. I saw a review of the ProNamel toothpaste and decided to start using it. I now have been using it exclusively for several months and I can tell you that I will not be using any other toothpaste. The teeth with the worst pitting are slowly improving! Myy teeth are becoming whiter and seem to be responding positively to this toothpaste. I buy four tubes at a time so that I don't run out. I have used all the whitening toothpastes and even the white strips and this toothpaste has served me well and I am exceptionally pleased. I highly recommend Sensodyne ProNamel toothpaste. It is worth the extra cost.

Not Worth the Price, June 4, 2008

I bought this because of my sensitive teeth, and also because they're starting to become transparent on the tips. To start, it's a pretty expensive toothpaste, and you only get about 1/4 of what you'd find in a regular tube of Colgate. I paid almost $7.00 for a tube at Walgreens. It has a gritty look to it when it comes out of the tube. As soon as you put it in your mouth the chemicals start to attack your tastebuds. The flavor is just plain BAD. I would use the product for 2 weeks, then take a one week break. I used the product for about 2 months. After brushing each time, it felt like my cheek lining was sloughing off in my mouth. Nothing changed. I didn't see any improvement in the transparency of my teeth, or their sensitivity. Infact, they felt a little more sensitive after brushing with product. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone.

This dentist recommends fluoride toothpaste that carries the ADA seal -- particularly Colgate Total for adult patients; however, he recommends Sensodyne Pronamel for those with sensitive teeth or those "more prone to cavities than gingivitis."

2. DentalResource.com

Based on his professional education and experience, dentist Jeffrey Kohlhardt recommends toothpaste that's free of SLS for people prone to canker sores. For people with sensitive teeth, he recommends toothpaste that contains potassium nitrate, such as Sensodyne.
