Product Description:
- The toothpaste is specially formulated to reduce painful tooth sensitivity and provide gentle cleansing.
- Thanks to its low abrasiveness, the formula effectively protects dentin and does not damage weakened areas of enamel.
- The key active ingredient is potassium nitrate: it reduces the excitability of nerve endings in the dentin, thereby decreasing the pain response to stimuli.
- Sodium fluoride helps strengthen enamel and prevent cavities.
- The toothpaste helps reduce plaque formation and maintain a basic level of oral hygiene, while ensuring a comfortable brushing experience.
Properties of the Cosmetic Product:
- Reduction of tooth sensitivity — potassium nitrate penetrates the dentinal tubules and reduces the transmission of pain signals, decreasing the reaction to cold, hot, and acidic stimuli.
- Cavity protection — sodium fluoride participates in enamel remineralization, strengthens it, and increases its resistance to acid attack.
- Gentle cleansing — the low abrasiveness of the formula allows effective plaque removal without damaging the enamel or increasing sensitivity.
- Plaque control — auxiliary components of the formula help reduce the amount of soft plaque, maintaining clean teeth.
- Comfortable texture and taste — the formula is designed so that the brushing process does not cause additional irritation to sensitive teeth.
Indications for Use:
- Increased tooth sensitivity to thermal, chemical, and mechanical stimuli.
- Presence of exposed tooth necks or areas of thinned enamel accompanied by painful sensations.
- Need for gentle yet effective cleansing in cases of susceptibility to hypersensitivity.
- Daily oral hygiene for adults and adolescents over 12 years of age with sensitive teeth.
- Need to reduce discomfort during tooth brushing thanks to the low‑abrasion formula and to prevent cavities thanks to fluoride.
Method of Application:
- Apply a strip of toothpaste at least 2.5 cm long to a soft‑bristled toothbrush.
- Brush your teeth thoroughly, paying special attention to sensitive areas, for at least 1 minute.
- Perform the procedure twice a day — in the morning and evening — but no more than 3 times a day, or as recommended by your dentist.
- Try to minimize swallowing the toothpaste.
- After brushing, spit out the remaining paste without rinsing your mouth with large amounts of water — this allows the active ingredients to stay on the tooth surface longer and exert their protective and soothing effects.
Side effects / Precautions:
- Not intended for children under 12 years of age without prior consultation with a dentist.
- Tooth sensitivity may be a symptom of a serious condition (caries, pulpitis, gum recession, enamel cracks) — a dental examination is recommended before starting use.
- If pain persists or worsens despite regular use of the toothpaste, consult a doctor.
- If signs of irritation of the oral mucosa appear (redness, swelling, burning), discontinue use and consult a specialist.
- Avoid swallowing the toothpaste; if a large amount is accidentally ingested, seek medical help.
- If you have heightened sensitivity to flavorings or components such as limonene, take this into account when using the product.
- Do not use as the sole remedy for acute dental conditions — the toothpaste is intended for routine care, not for treatment.
Storage conditions:
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Tightly close the tube after each use to protect the contents from moisture and drying out.
- Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Do not allow the toothpaste to freeze.
Packaging:
A cardboard box containing an aluminum or laminated tube with a volume of 100 ml.
