Toms Maine Natural Sensitive Toothpaste Reviews Summary

Sensitivity Relief

Pros:

• "It really helps with my sensitivity and keeps it under control."
• "This stuff tastes great, does not feel chalky, and man does it deaden the pain and build a coating that helps protect the teeth from future hot/cold pain!"
• "The packaging promises rapid relief to sensitive teeth and the product delivers."
• "Also, works to desensitize as advertised."
• "Both my wife and I had cold or cold & hot tooth sensitivity from dental work... Sure enough in 1-2 weeks she said the difference was very noticeable."
• "Immediately upon using Tom's Rapid relief toothpaste it was definitely rapid relief."
• "This toothpaste has been the only sensitive toothpaste I have tried that I feel actually makes a difference! Definitely worth the buy if you experience tooth sensitivity!"

Cons:

• "This product does not contain floride and dentist says it is a problem for my dental health."
• "Nothing to protect against cavities, this paste's only function is to relieve sensitivity of the teeth."
• "After only a week of using this toothpaste twice a day, I developed swelling and sores in my inner cheeks."
• "This toothpaste made all of my teeth extremely sensitive (even just to breathing air), with random shooting tooth pains."
• "After only a few uses, caused extreme tooth sensitivity and pain. Had to stop using it and pain went away."
• "But this claimed on the package and the details said it will take care of sensitive teeth, I am here to say it doesn't work, I used 3 tubes and rather than my teeth getting better I had more sensitive."
• "After using this for about 3 weeks, I'm noticing it is getting worse!"

Flavor and Taste

Pros:

• "It tastes like mint & nothing else. It isn't nearly as overpowering as the regular store brands - just a mildly pleasant taste."
• "Great taste of real mint. Not the overly chemical taste of some products."
• "The mint flavor is great, it's sensitive on my teeth, leaves them clean and white and my breath fresh for a long time after brushing."
• "A lot of white toothpaste has a bland or odd flavor but this toothpaste is a nice, fresh peppermint."
• "Most importantly, it’s Fluoride Free, and it’s not tested on animals. It doesn’t contain artificial flavors, sweeteners, or dyes, and it relieves sensitivity quickly. It also has a very pleasant taste!"
• "This toothpaste is the best. Fresh minty flavor."
• "I love this toothpaste and have been buying it for years."

Cons:

• "Probably the worst tasting toothpaste I've ever bought."
• "The Mint ingredient in this product was so intense that it actually caused my teeth to ache and my tongue to burn."
• "The peppermint is Very strong an leaves your mouth burning."
• "The taste is awful."
• "This says peppermint but tastes like something else mush."
• "It says 'fresh mint' but I find no mint flavor. There is a distinct flavor of hydrogen peroxide, which I personally find disgusting."
