Hi, vantej is a desensitising paste so kindly use it only and only if you have sensitivity. Apply it on the sensitive tooth or all your teeth leave for 10mins and use a different paste and brush your teeth.
Next Steps
Continue using this way for 2 weeks and the sensitivity should subside
Health Tips
Do not use the same paste for brushing as it is not meant for cleaning but taking care of sensitivity hence make sure you are using an alternate paste to brush your teeth.
