Description
  • New
  • SLS-Free Antiplaque for Sensitive Teeth
  • Naturally Foaming Fluoride-Free Toothpaste
  • Gaultheria procumbens

Contains natural potassium nitrate for protecting sensitive teeth from pain, xylitol for fighting plaque, soothing aloe, and glycyrrhizin from licorice root for natural foaming.

What causes sensitive teeth?

When tooth enamel is worn away or gums recede, dentin underneath is exposed and teeth become sensitive, especially to hot and cold foods. This happens as we age, but tooth grinding, gum disease, and brushing too hard can also contribute. We use the naturally sourced and clinically proven mineral potassium nitrate to soothe the pain associated with sensitive teeth.

Uses: Builds increasing protection against the painful sensitivity of teeth to cold, heat, acids, sweets, or contact.

Dear friends,

Our Sensitive Care toothpaste leaves your teeth and mouth feeling clean and fresh—without using sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). SLS foams and disperses ingredients but for some may cause mouth and gum irritation. Our breakthrough formula uses glycyrrhizin (purified from licorice root) for natural foaming and potassium nitrate to reduce tooth sensitivity. Please let us know what you think!
