Toothpaste - the Search Begins

[winjim]

So it appears that HiSmile is a viral sensation and is now available at all good supermarkets. Well Superdrug anyway.

The important thing is that HiSmile is AMAZING. Best thing since sliced bread. Finally I can brush my teeth without shuddering.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

If anyone else is looking for toothpaste that actually tastes nice but still leaves a refreshing feel to the mouth. THIS IS IT!

I'm also old and don't use TikTok so I had no idea. Glad it's working out for you, I'll have to go to Superdrug if they've got it for £4.

Nobody got you the flavour you actually asked for then?

We use Sensodyne - it is a blue gel sort of thing

seems to work - no taste of much and it seems to help with sensitivity

Grand kids like it as well as it is a bright colour

It was out of stock :-(

The 4 I've got are great though.

We are now down with the cool kids...

Late to the thread but my partner was fussy on toothpaste so IIRC used sensodyne in the past. She thought some were a little too sweet tasting or some other complaint. She did use a bicarb toothepaste like the arm and hammer ones for awhile but not that brand as she thought that one was sweet in flavour.

A year ago I got sensitive teeth for a short period of time and bought some Oral B proexpert (bought at half price in Boots). I got the sensitive one with the pink patch on the lable. I also got the purple patch labelled one which was for sensitive but also whitening. That one was basically the same but thicker in texture until you started to brush with it. Both are very good for cleaning your teeth and preventing any sensitivity.

But like so many other products now, the variety of flavours and 'advntages' in toothpaste is mind boggling, most brands claiming to be the very best - !

It also changes a lot
We have a Sensodyne one - but we have 2 bathrooms (posh or WHAT!!!) so we have 2 tube for convenience

so we tend to run out only after a long time
so when we need a new one I take a photo of the old one
and then spend ages peering at every Sensodyne tube in Tesco and ASDA trying to work out which is the same
and whether or not they have just changed how it looks a bit

Of course, as with all other items where taste is a factor, it's impossible to prove that the taste of product X has changed over the years - !
Very easy & smart marketing move eh - ?

Having had a recent discussion with my very good GP ref. my current meds, she's going to do a check to see what I actually do need to carry on taking or maybe change / drop.
Had a blood test on Monday and the results came back today with a message '...a further test is required...'
Oooer - !
Watch this space - !

Bah. Went to Superdrug to stock up and while it's great that they stock it, it ain't four quid any more...

Anyway, got pink donut and sherbert flavours for the kids.
