Alright, in the interest of full disclosure I am sensitive, probably over sensitive. And being sensitive and passive is--I can vouch for it--a terribly stressful combination in an individual. My sensitive nature causes me to analyse everything, gauging what people say, their reactions to me. I drive myself crazy mulling over, and analyzing the minutia of life, deliberating the "what ifs" . My sensitivities extend beyond the emotional however, sensitive skin, and sensitive teeth and gums, what’s a gal to do?
Crest and Oral B decided to give me a little help with my glaring sensitivities by sending me a bundle of products they knew I could use!
Ever been to the dentist and heart wrenchingly listened to him tell you things like, “you have very delicate gums which therefore recede from the teeth if brushed too hard.” or “your gums are bleeding when I floss them you must not floss enough” after he have unfeelingly wrenched a heavy thread of rough floss with gale force into the tight spaces between your teeth? “Be gentle with me!” you want to respond…if only you could speak with your mouth fully extended, stretched to unnatural limits!
Crest and Oral-B are listening! They’ve heard your incomprehensible, garbled plea and translated it into great products for sensitive gums and teeth. Crest and Oral-B have done their research. Their creators at Proctor and Gamble know that 60% of Canadians suffer from some degree of tooth sensitivity. Crest and Oral-B have surpassed the idea of toothpaste for sensitive teeth alone and have created a group of products for overall oral care for those with sensitivities featuring: Crest Pro-Health Sensitive Shield Toothpaste, Crest Pro-Health floss for sensitive Gums, the Oral-B Advantage toothbrush, and Oral-B Vitality Sensitive Rechargeable power toothbrush.
Crest and Oral-B treated me to this free bundle of care and threw in a few amazing extras like Olay Total Effects for Sensitive skin, and Tide Free liquid laundry detergent perfect for warding off all those skin sensitivities as well as a book for sensitive “Drama Queens” {who me?}, “Don’t Call Me a Drama Queen!” by Dr. Debra Mandel
Crest Pro-Health Sensitive shield Toothpaste contains something called stannous fluoride, the secret ingredient to protecting teeth from sensitivity and the use of this toothpaste builds increasing protection against the pain of sensitive teeth. It really works!! Now enjoy the extremes, hot tea, or cold ice cream as you should.
Just make sure you apply this toothpaste to the gentle Comfort clean bristles of the Oral-B Advantage manual toothbrush or even better the Oral-B Vitality Sensitive rechargeable power brush which includes a timer for the dentist recommended two-minute brushing and for even better plaque removable. I loved the soft bristles because my gums are very “delicate” as described by my dental hygienist. The soft bristles are a must for me and I actually do find a power brush the best way to cut back on plaque build up!
Finally, as we have all been told time and time again floss, floss, floss! But now you can floss while being gentle on your gums with the silky smooth strands of Crest Glide Pro-Health Floss for Sensitive Gums. My teeth fit quite tightly together yet the Crest glide floss slides comfortably between them!
Now a Northern Mama reader will be the lucky winner of a Crest bundle of their own including Crest Pro-Health Sensitive Shield Toothpaste, Crest Glide Pro-Health Floss and the Oral-B Vitality Sensitive toothbrush. As an added bonus I am throwing in a copy of “Don’t Call Me a Drama Queen!: A Guide for the Overly Sensitive and Their Significant Others Who Need to Learn How to Lighten Up and Go with the Flow” by Dr. Debra Mandel.

I avoid the dentist for that reason ! Unfortunately I shouldn't do that because now I need to get my tooth pulled..
ReplyDeleteAnyway , my teeth are sensitive too , sometimes it hurts to breath , and not just in the winter ! Cold drinks bother me a lot too. I always ask for no ice and actually prefer pop to be room temp because of it. Everyone always asks why I don't put the cans in the fridge , well thats why ! Don't seem to have any trouble with hot drinks. Maybe thats why I can't sleep. Too much coffee all day ! Ha !
i have really bad recession on my gums so i have to use toothpaste for sensitve teeth and the dentist said to get one of these special brushes
ReplyDeleteso this would be great for me !!

Ironically I am looking forward to dental surgery soon. I have Periodontitis from my Diabetes. The sugar has loosened a tooth and I will have to get a replacement for it. As for sensitivity, I am terrified of the dentist, and an hour before my appointment, I go in and take a blue pill. It calms me enough so they can do whatever they must.

I am very sensitive to the light. I know that sounds crazy but my eyes get all squinty and I get headaches so I wear sunglasses A LOT. Even artificial light (bulbs) can bother me.

Well - I'm pregnant with twins, so my hormones are all over the place - emotionally I am pretty darn sensitive right now! If that's not enough, the pregnancy is also causing my gums to be extra sensitive and I've got "pink toothbrush syndrome." I could definitely use these products!

I have some gum recession so cold drinks really bother me. Hot drinks, for some reason, do not. I love beer on a hot day, but if it is too too cold, I have to let it sit out for awhile to warm up a bit. lol.
