Dental sensitivity is one of the most common symptoms in dental patients. In the United States, at least 40 million adults are sometimes injured in sensitive teeth.
Some toothpastes contain abrasive ingredients that may be too harsh for people with sensitive teeth. The ingredients found in some whitening toothpastes can increase tooth sensitivity that can reduce and/or remove certain stains of enamel and sodium pyrophosphate, a key component of tartar control toothpaste.
