PACKAGING
Come in a modern looking design. In combination of colour silver, white and mint green, with images of acid source such as wine acid, fruit acid and acidic drinks on the right side that make the packaging more appealing. They used a dark navy font for labelling the brand. Adding to this is the opaque green lid which is creatively designed. Way different from its competitor.
FACT
Dentist have reported a growing dental health concern due to changing modern diets" acid erosion" or "acid wear". Even teeth without cavities can be affected. Acid in everyday food such as some fruit and acidic drinks like orange juice, wine can dissolve minerals from our teeth, softening the enamel surface which is more easily worn away. As the enamel becomes thinner, teeth can be visibly less white,weaker and sensitive. Teeth sensitive to hot and cold foods can be an early sign of acid wear.
EXPERIENCE
Unfortunately, I am one of those who have sensitive teeth. Over the past few years, I noticed that i become more prone to sensitivity. I tried different brand of toothpaste but nothing worked for me so I continued using my usual brand and deal with it as i have no choice. Finally, got my hands on sensodyne pronamel daily while i'm checking to get my old brand of toothpaste. I found this attractive carton which was new on the shelf. As i checked the price £3.76, I think twice if i will take it because the price is almost double as my old brand but looking at the way it was presented, it does'nt look cheap. Then I finally realized that I definitely need this product to cope with all the inconvenience of having a sensitive teeth. I also remembered that sensitive teeth may indicate an underlying problem which needs prompt care so i better take it than do the other option of going back to my dentist for another check up. I'm pretty sure that I'm well off by taking this instead.
As i open it, the smell is not that strong. It's almost the same and taste of a typical minty flavour toothpaste. Like any other, it keep your mouth feeling clean and fresh. I quite observed the difference within a week, as i continue using it I'm not prone anymore with sensitivity and started to drink anything i want without hesitation. I'm happy with the result. It really hardens my tooth enamel and protect my teeth from acid erosion.
OPINION
The downside is the price which is quite expensive for a toothpaste but I highly recommend this product because it works well. In my point of view this toothpaste is really great not only for those with sensitive teeth but for anyone. At the end of the day we are all looking after our teeth to prevent future problems like acid erosion. I believe Sensodyne pronamel daily is the only one who offer those prevention and It also has fluoride for cavity protection and provides the benefits of a regular daily toothpaste. So it's definitely woth buying for.
Thank you for reading :-D
