Elmex Sensitive Professional Toothpaste 20ml

Elmex Sensitive Professional toothpaste relieves pain related to sensitive teeth. It quickly acts thanks to PRO-ARGIN technology with clinically proven efficacy. Tooth sensitivity strikes between a quarter and a third of adults. It is characterized by brief and sharp pains occurring when the teeth are subjected to cold, hot, or during brushing. Breathing in air or drinking cool water can turn into a challenge. Tooth sensitivity occurs when dentin is exposed. This substance, also called ivory of the tooth. It is crossed by the canaliculi, small channels connected to the dental nerve. Normally protected by enamel or gingiva, dentin can be exposed if the enamel is eroded, or the gingiva recedes. Acid, sweet, cold, or hot will stimulate the nerve. That's where the pain comes in. The causes of enamel erosion or gingival retraction are multiple: cavities, broken teeth, inflammation of the gums, but also an excessively acidic diet or inadequate brushing. Elmex Sensitive Professional toothpaste uses PRO-ARGIN technology. It is based on a mixture of calcium carbonate and arginine, an amino acid already present in saliva. This toothpaste will deposit a protective barrier which will attach itself to the dentin and to the walls of the canaliculi. This will have the effect of clogging them, eliminating the cause of the pain. Elmex Sensitive toothpaste provides immediate relief when applied to the painful area with the finger.
