How Sensodyne Sensitive Soft Toothbrush works

A soft-bristled toothbrush cleans by mechanically dislodging plaque and food debris from tooth surfaces and along the gumline. Softer filaments are designed to reduce brushing abrasion and gum irritation, which can be helpful for people with dentine hypersensitivity.

How to take Sensodyne Sensitive Soft Toothbrush

Use twice daily or as directed by a dentist. Apply a pea-sized amount of toothpaste, brush gently for about 2 minutes using small circular strokes along teeth and gumline. Rinse after use; replace toothbrush every ~3 months or sooner if bristles splay.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
