Mentadent P Original Flavour Toothpaste

It uses two Antibacterial ingredients, Triclosan and Zinc Citrate which are absorbed along the gum line then gradually released protecting gums and teeth from bacterial plaque for long lasting protection for healthy teeth and gums.

I have been using this toothpaste for the past couple of years now, I started using this after having an infection that went through my body and ended up in my gums.
Since then I had a lot of trouble with the gum problem coming back and going, In the end I decided to try a new toothpaste and Mentadent P was it.
Within a few days of using this it really seemed to help with the soreness I had along my gum line, now if I ever switch from this toothpaste for more than two weeks my gums just get very sore and red looking.

The taste of it isn't too minty which I like too as I find some of the mint flavours to overpowering, I don't feel the need to use a mouthwash as my mouth always feels fresh after using this.

The only problem I have found with it is it is not widely available, I get mine from Tesco but Morrison's and Asda don't seem to sell this. I also think Boots sell's it, also I would like to see it in different sizes and tube style, This has a screw on lid and I hate that about it I much prefer the squirty tubes that stand up on their own.

It cost's around £1.89 for a 100ml tube, There is a warning on the box advising that if you are taking fluoride supplements you should contact your Dentist before use.

Summary: Good for Gum Health
