toothpaste

Autist

I'm upset. my mouth is STINGING. it burns it hurts all because of stupid STUPID toothpaste. why does it have to hurt? why why why? why do only children get to not hurt when they brush their teeth? Please please help, does anybody know of toothpaste suitable for those with all their adult teeth that is NOT mint flavoured? I am using aquafresh 'mild and minty' which is a complete LIE it is NOT mild AT ALL AND I'M SO MAD.

  • I've had the same problem and when I mentioned it to my dentist he actually recommended using Aquafresh 'Big Teeth' toothpaste. It's still mint flavoured but I personally find it a lot milder than the adult toothpastes and being formulated for 'Big Teeth' it is more suitable than the fruity/sweet flavoured toothpastes that are aimed at younger kids.

    Alternatively, it might be worth looking in Holland and Barrett as I know I've seen non-minty toothpastes in there in the past. A quick look on their website shows that there is a pomegranet toothpaste available. I've never tried it myself so I can't say what it's like but it could be worth a try.
