Sensitive teeth
I have been using Sensodyne toothpaste for my tooth sensitivity for about a week since my tooth sensitivity due to multiple dental treatments and my sensitivity is reducing and getting better. Do I still continue to use Sensodyne toothpaste or can I switch back to my regular toothpaste and rinse my mouth as per usual though my dentist told me to monitor my sensitivity for few months before going back to him for check up?

Namaskaram,
"Its better safe than sorry" they say. Most dentist recommended toothpastes like Sensodyne have NovaMin. It helps to form a protective layer over the sensitive areas of teeth. They serve their purpose effectively till the first two to three weeks. Its better to switch back to your old "pal" for optimum cleaning and protecting you from future dental issues. Team Shambhala.
