A: Hello, Shelly. Sensodyne Pronamel Kids Berry Twist Toothpaste is specifically formulated to strengthen and protect the enamel of children 2 years of age and older. Pronamel Kids provides 24-hour cavity protection and 2x stronger enamel defense. The product is not indicated for the relief of tooth sensitivity.

A: Toothpastes are formulated for topical use, to be applied to surface to teeth and not intended to be swallowed. No toothpaste product is formulated for intentional swallowing as the benefit of toothpastes is derived from brushing the teeth with the toothpaste and spitting out. The safety assessment for all toothpastes including Haleon products in the general population, is based on the product being spat out, but does assume a percentage of the product is ingested with each use. Haleon has not specifically evaluated the size/amount of toothpaste that is safe to be swallowed and it varies on individual basis. However, after using the right amount of toothpaste, it is expected that incidental swallowing may occur during usage and there are no known safety concerns when the product is used as directed. In case of any further concerns, please consult your dentist for advice.

A: Thank you for the question. Following a review of the product formulations and detailed supplier documentation, we can confirm that with the exception of tin, heavy metals are not directly added to any Haleon Oral Health products, including Sensodyne Pronamel Kids Berry Twist toothpaste. Trace levels of naturally occurring metals can sometimes be present as impurities within the raw materials used. The presence of trace levels in the final product cannot be completely excluded due to manufacturing processes. However, these levels are controlled by the raw material specifications and comply with all appropriate regulations, as well as the limits proposed by the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Guideline for Elemental Impurities. The presence of any trace amounts of heavy metal is not considered to affect the safety profile of our products when used as directed.

A: It’s best to avoid swallowing the toothpaste. Minimize swallowing and have your child spit out after brushing.

A: Sensodyne Pronamel Kids Berry Twist Toothpaste contains xanthan gum sourced from corn.

A: Thank you for the question, Lauren. Sensodyne Pronamel Kids Berry Twist Toothpaste is within a low abrasion range as per standard classification (Gilles at al 2009). Toothpastes with a Relative Dentin Abrasivity (RDA) value below 70 are considered low abrasive.

A: Sensodyne Pronamel Kids Berry Twist Toothpaste is recommended for adults and children 2 years of age and older. Please note that there is no upper age limit for using this toothpaste. If you have any concern regarding the usage of toothpaste, we recommend to contact your dentist for advice.

A: Hello Marina. Sensodyne ProNamel Kids Berry Twist Toothpaste contains water and does not have a foil seal. It is normal for toothpastes containing water to not have a foil seal because foil is used to minimize discoloring or hardening of the toothpaste prior to being opened for the first time.
