Sensodyne Pronamel Toothpaste 75ml
Sensodyne Pronamel Toothpaste 75mlSensodyne Pronamel is a toothpaste that has been specifically formulated for those at risk of acid erosion and works in a number of ways:It helps re-harden tooth enamel, making it more resistant to further acid attackIt has low abrasivity to limit further enamel wear during the process of toothbrushingIt is pH neutral (non-acidic) to be kind to tooth enamelIt is specifically formulated for people with sensitive teeth (this can be a sign of acid erosion).Causes of tooth decay and sensitivityMany of the foods and drinks that we associate with a modern diet, including wine, many fruits, fruit tea and balsamic vinegar contain acid.The acid comes into contact with teeth, at which point the tooth's hard enamel surface temporarily softens. When we brush our
teeth, the enamel can be worn away more easily and become thinner over time. The wearing of enamel, caused by acid in our diet is called acid erosion.SignsEarly stagesSensitivity when consuming hot or cold food and drinksA rounded look on the surface of the toothA slight yellow appearance as the tooth becomes thinner and the underlying dentine shows throughLater stagesDarker yellow appearance of the teethTransparency at the edgesSensitivity becoming more severeSmall dents on the tooth surfaceThe effects of acid erosion cannot be reversed and if left to advance, may require treatment from the dentist to restore and protect the affected teeth. In very extreme cases the damage caused may require affected teeth to be extracted.PreventionWhat you can doAvoid brushing teeth immediately after
consuming acidic food or drinks - it's best to wait as long as possible.Drink acidic drinks quickly - don't swish them around or hold them for long periods within your mouth, use a straw where possible and encourage children to do the same.Brush twice a day, every day, with a toothpaste like Sensodyne Pronamel or Sensodyne Pronamel Gentle Whitening to help re-harden softened tooth enamel.Visit your dentist regularly.
