Sensodyne Pronamel


Hi all,

Just got this fax from GSK (Glaxo) about their new Sensodyne Pronamel products (Trademarks with their respective owners). Went to their website at www.dental-professional.ca (intended only for dental professionals) and got the following information about this product in Canada:

HELPS PROTECT TEETH AGAINST THE EFFECTS OF ACID EROSION AND SENSITIVITY

ProNamel helps to reharden softened enamel:

  • Microhardening effect – high fluoride uptake from unique new formulation

ProNamel helps address the pain of sensitive teeth:

  • Low Relative Dentin Abrasivity (RDA)
  • Contains Potassium nitrate (5% w/w)
ProNamel also offers these additional benefits:
  • Neutral pH
  • SLS-free
  • Provides the benefits of a regular toothpaste including fresh breath, caries protection, and plaque removal (with brushing)
  • Two great flavours: Mint Essence and Fresh Wave
I'll follow up with my first impressions of this product when I get some samples. Remember that the features stated above are from the manufacturer. I usually recommend Sensodyne-F to my patients with sensitivity and before any sort of tooth whitening treatment.

You can read the headline page on their website here.

Take care,

Hans.
