4.0 out of 5 stars Sensodyne ProNAMEL, September 11, 2007

There is one major difference that most people will overlook and that is there is no Sodium Lauryl Sulfate in this product. There is research out there that this inactive ingredient will cause sloughing in the mouth which can lead to cancor sores or mouth ulcers. I stopped using any toothpaste with that ingredient and it has helped.

This toothpaste does have the same active ingredients though. Plus its not as abrasive as other toothpastes.

This review is from: Sensodyne ProNamel Mint Essence Toothpaste, 4 oz. (Pack of 4) (Health and Beauty)

I love this toothpaste! It effectively desesitizes teeth and smoothes them over. However, buyers should be aware that you must stick with it for a number of weeks in order for it to work properly. If you try it for a few days and claim it doesn't work (like most negative reviewers probably do), then you're fooling yourself. With anything, you must give it a chance to do its job.

It is true that this toothpaste has a rather...unpleasant taste (at least to me). It's hardly minty. It's more medicine-like. But it's not unbearable.

It's a small container, so use it wisely. A little goes a long way. My tube lasted me around a month.

I can see why my dentist recommended this to me! It's great for sensitive gums and protecting teeth against wear overall.

This review is from: Sensodyne ProNamel Mint Essence Toothpaste, 4 oz. (Pack of 4) (Health and Beauty)

I used this product for several weeks with the hope that it would reduce sensitivity on my teeth. While the paste did get my teeth clean, there was no change in the sensitivity level. I also found the taste to be a little funny as well.

After doing some research and talking with my dentist, I discovered that this product is no different than regular Sensodyne toothpaste. If you look at the label and compare the active ingredients of both toothpastes, they are EXACTLY the same. The only real difference between the two products is that ProNamel toothpaste does not contain sodium lauryl sulfate.

If you have canker sores and are looking for an SLS-free toothpaste, you might consider this product. Otherwise, I'd just stick with regular Sensodyne and save yourself a buck or two.
