Potassium nitrate is a mineral. It contains potassium ions which work to desensitize the nerve inside the tooth, helping to provide relief from sensitive tooth pain. 1,3 Like stannous fluroride, sodium fluoride strengthens teeth to help prevent tooth decay. It also helps to remineralize tooth enamel in the early stages of tooth decay. 3 WHAT IS SENSODYNE DEEP CLEAN: It is a daily fluoride gel toothpaste, clinically proven to provide relief and ongoing effective protection against sensitivity*.

The advantage of these ingredients is that they give toothpaste a sweet taste without the need for cavity-causing sugar. 4

Sensodyne toothpastes with stannous fluoride thus work like a shield to protect the exposed dentin (the soft, inner part of the tooth) and helps prevent sensitivity from occurring with twice daily brushing. A common humectant, glycerol helps retain moisture within the toothpaste to stop it from drying out and maintain a consistent, smooth texture that’s easy to squeeze out of the tube. 4,6 If you do like the sudsy effect of an SLS toothpaste, these are just some of the Sensodyne products that contain SLS: Sensodyne Repair and Protect – Daily repair for sensitive teeth with twice daily brushing.* XANTHAN GUM Hydrated silica is an abrasive that helps clean debris and staining off the surface of your teeth without damaging the enamel. 4 Hydrated silica is used in Sensodyne toothpastes.

The suds help distribute the toothpaste evenly around the mouth and dissolve residue from the surface of your teeth. 4,5 Most Sensodyne toothpastes are SLS-free. Instead, other detergents such as sodium methyl cocoyl taurate and cocamidopropyl betaine are used. A few ingredients are added to Sensodyne toothpastes to give them a fresh, pleasant flavor and cover the taste of other ingredients. These include sorbitol, a natural sugar alcohol, and sodium saccharin, an artificial sweetener.
