Swollen, ulcers, pain
I have used Sensodyne and other sensitive toothpaste brands for years. I bought the Whitening Sensitivity & Gum variant about a month ago. I noticed some discomfort but passed it off as unrelated. Yesterday morning I noticed some inflammation and pain shortly after brushing, but forgot about it last night and this morning. Last night I had a terrible sleep with horrific smell in the morning. I brushed again this morning and the entire inside of my mouth is swollen, ulcerated, and in pain. The inside of my mouth is so swollen that I have a second layer to my lip visible from the outside. I don't know what is different with this toothpaste variant, but it is not suitable.

Great for teeth with no counter mess!
I have very sensitive teeth and my dentist recommended I try this toothpaste. It’s a game changer and I wish I was using this toothpaste a long time ago. It also is great for whitening! I drink a lot of coffee, so I wanted my sensodyne with whitening. And an extra bonus is that this tube makes zero mess. It doesn’t overspill on the counter and the amount you want is the amount you get. I recommend!!

Do not use - causes blisters in mouth
This toothpaste caused extremely sore red lumps and blisters on my tongue and my gums got swollen and extremely sensitive - I saw people have been leaving similar reviews for many years on this website but sensodyne has not done anything to fix the issue - DO NOT BUY THIS TOOTHPASTE

My Favorite Sensitive Toothpaste
There are so many options for sensitive toothpaste. Sensodyne is far superior in helping with sensitive teeth. Sensitivity and Gum (with red on label) works best for me.

Retracting gums
I have been using this toothpaste for about 6 months and yes, it reduced sensitivity but my teeth are suffering. I feel like my gums are shrinking and leaving gaping spacing between my teeth. What?!? This is the only thing I have changed besides eating more fruits and vegetables to be more healthy. I am puzzled but I am stopping use until I see a dentist.

My teeth hurt on contact with this stuff
I have used many sensodyne before and this one for some reason caused irritation as soon as i put it in my mouth. I just went through the reviews and it looks like i'm not alone, sorted by "most recent" and all the reviews in the past year were one star. Are we having a bad batch? I am going to stop using it immediately and consult my dentist.

Not good
Beware- this one has sodium laurel sulfate sls, and potassium nitrite. The potassium nitrate is used to numb sensitivity BUT for too many people it causes ache teeth and plus ringing in the ears, I’m glad I figured it out

SLS
This has sodium laurel sulfate which causes canker sore. It is a nice toothpaste, but I am prone to canker sores when using that ingredient so it is not worth it to me.

Great Toothpaste!
I have been using this toothpaste for years. Works great for reducing my sensitivity, especially for eating cold items. I have not noticed my teeth whitening, but this doesn't bother me. The protection against sensitivity is well worth it.

Awful taste
This Sensitivity and Gum variant of Sensodyne is the worst tasting toothpaste I've ever had. It has an awful bitter aftertaste. I could never bring myself to using it more than 1 day consecutively, so I never got to the level of experiencing canker sores that other reviewers mentioned. I do enjoy the Sensodyne Extra Whitening variant and don't have side effects like other whitening toothpastes (allergic cough). Sensitivity and Gum totally misses the mark unfortunately.

Worth its weight in ice cream
I had tried a few different toothpastes for my sensitive teeth including sensodyne! My dentist recommended this specific one and it was literally life changing! After about one week I could eat food of varying temperatures again without wincing! I am beyond thrilled.

Causes Canker Sores
This unfortunately caused a lot of canker sores about 2 days after I started using this. I’ve never had any issues with Sensodyne before, but this one will be tossed out.

Made my gum irritated so bad
This toothpaste make my gum irritated so bad. First few days, my gum was very sensitive but I dont think anything about this toothpaste. A few days after, it got worse, my gum swollen and have a lot small sore around gums and under tongue. I went to urgent care and found out this happened because of the toothpaste. My mom and my brother also feel their gums more sensitive after using this few days. Very disappointed about this product
