First and foremost you need a cleaning ( scaling) for plague removal.
Sensodent is a desensitizing toothpaste. U can take small amount and apply all over your teeths using a soft bristled tooth brush.... leave it for five minutes and rinse.
Mouthwash is to be taken in a dilute form. Take about 2 spoons of mouthwash in your mouth. Add some water in the mouth and vigorously rinse. Don't gaurgle after using mouthwash. Mouthwash should not be used half an hour before and after meals.
Chewing is just an option.
Regular brushing twice will help.
Next Steps
visit a nearby dentist for scaling
