You’re no fool! You know that just because a package or advertisement makes some kind of promise to you, it doesn’t mean it’s real! While this can be helpful for you and may assist you in not becoming duped, it can also feel limiting. Especially in the dental hygiene aisle! You see toothpaste that says it can help with sensitivity. You see some that claims it will reverse your gingivitis. What’s true and what isn’t, you’d like to know? Let’s cover frequent areas of concern for quick answers (for everything else, ask us soon!).

Toothpaste For Sensitivity

This is real. It may seem too good to be true but when you notice your teeth are responding poorly when you chew, when you eat cold foods, when you bite into something hot, etc., then what you want is help with sensitivity. Of course, you should really take time to set up an appointment with our practice, so we can find out what’s going on. For now, this type of toothpaste will really work!

Toothpaste Promising To Whiten

If you see toothpaste that promises it can offer exceptional whitening during dental hygiene, remember: Yes, it can help with a little bit of your surface staining. No, you’re probably not going to be able to tell. When your goal is serious whitening, don’t fall into this trap. Instead, let us know that it’s time to discuss teeth whitening options.

Antigingivitis Toothpaste

Using toothpaste during dental hygiene sessions that claims it will reverse your gingivitis (paste you find at the drugstore) may be helpful in removing plaque just like most toothpaste. However, if you truly have the beginning of gum disease, you need to see us. You cannot cure gingivitis with toothpaste.
