Sensodyne Rapid Relief Toothpaste, Daily Fast Relief Sensitive Toothpaste for Sensitive Teeth, Original Mint Flavour, 75ml

Not the first time I've used this product, works well on lively gums, numbs irritated nerves, and was at a much reduced price than in a supermarket.

I normally use Sensodyne toothpaste, but I recently forgot to take it with me on holiday and had to use a regular toothpaste instead. When I got back, my teeth were incredibly sensitive to temperature changes—especially cold drinks.I ordered Sensodyne Rapid Relief expecting it to help over the coming weeks, but I was completely blown away by how quickly it worked. The sensitivity had noticeably subsided within a day of using it!If you have sensitive teeth and want fast relief from symptoms, I can’t recommend it enough. It has a minty flavor and leaves your mouth feeling fresh and clean for hours.

It’s actually worked! I have receding gums on my molars and have been using this for over a week now - the sensitivity has significantly reduced.I have been using it as directed - brush my teeth with it and then apply a pea sized amount on the affected areas. It was very sensitive when doing it at first but has and is continuing to reduce in sensitivity/pain.

I’ve tried, honestly. I gave Sensodyne Rapid Relief a fair shot. I brushed like I meant it. I followed the instructions like I was training for the Tooth Olympics. I even resisted the urge to judge it by its overly earnest name—“Rapid Relief”? Alright then, Speedy Gonzales. Let’s see what you’ve got.Round 1: The Minty SituationThe first thing that hit me was the mint. Or, more accurately, the absence of it. Sensodyne’s “Original Mint Flavour” tastes like someone left a Tic Tac in a glass of warm water and said, “Voila.” It’s gentle, sure. Maybe too gentle. Like a handshake from someone who’s never lifted a kettle in their life.Colgate, by comparison, smacks you in the face with that glorious fresh kick. It wakes you up, tells you to get your life together, and practically high-fives your molars on the way out. You know you’ve brushed with Colgate. Sensodyne? You sort of feel like you’ve politely introduced your teeth to the idea of brushing and then backed away.Round 2: The Sensitive Teeth SmackdownAlright, I’ll give it this—Sensodyne does work on sensitivity. I’d had a rogue canine that winced at even the mention of ice cream, and after a week of Sensodyne, it had calmed down considerably. Kudos. However—and this is where things get tricky—it felt like the rest of my mouth got left behind in the rescue mission. It soothed the sensitive bits, yes, but didn’t clean quite the same. There’s a difference between soothing and scrubbing. Colgate, even its sensitive range, manages to do both. It’s like having a friend who hugs you and tells you your fly’s down. Honest but kind.Round 3: The Texture GameColgate? Smooth, creamy, feels luxurious. Sensodyne? A bit chalky. Not awful, just... gritty, like it’s unsure whether it’s a paste or a DIY wall filler. I found myself rinsing more than usual, trying to get rid of the clingy after-feel. I don’t want to floss my gums’ emotions, I just want my teeth clean and my mouth happy.Round 4: Whitening and the “Wait, Was That It?” PhenomenonIt says it whitens enamel. Maybe it does. In theory. On Tuesdays. In ideal lighting. After three tubes. Personally, I didn’t notice much difference, and I brush like a man possessed. Meanwhile, my humble Colgate Max White is out here scrubbing away tea stains like a cleaner at closing time.Round 5: Price and Packaging DramaAlright, it’s not expensive—but I can’t be the only one who opens a tube of Sensodyne and ends up squeezing it like I’m milking a reluctant goat. The plastic is weirdly stiff. Colgate? Smooth tube, easy squeeze, no drama. The way it should be.Let’s Talk CommitmentSensodyne’s that person who brings you soup when you’re sick—lovely, caring, reliable in a pinch. But Colgate? That’s your life partner. Shows up daily. Keeps you fresh. Knows how to party and doesn’t let you down at weddings, job interviews, or awkward first dates. That’s the toothpaste you build a future with.Final Thoughts:Look, I like Sensodyne. I really do. It’s the toothpaste equivalent of herbal tea—soothing, gentle, a bit smug. But Colgate? Colgate’s coffee. Strong, reliable, and you can’t imagine your morning without it.So here’s the final score:- Mint flavour: Sensodyne 5/10, Colgate 9/10- Sensitivity relief: Sensodyne 9/10, Colgate 8/10- Clean feeling: Sensodyne 6/10, Colgate 9/10- Whitening power: Sensodyne 5/10, Colgate 8/10- Packaging and usability: Sensodyne 4/10, Colgate 9/10- Loyalty rating: Sensodyne’s the fling. Colgate’s the ring.

Buying them like this makes them very good value for your money

I have a dentist teeth whitening kit (the only thing that has ever actually made my teeth whiter) and this toothpaste is the best for helping with the sensitivity that follows. It works really quickly, and is often cheaper here than compared to supermarkets. It has a smooth texture and a mild minty flavour which I really like. Makes my teeth feel clean and protected when whitening.

I use this all the time and found this a very good price on here.It helps my sensitive teeth and not too strong a taste.
