Turning off sensitivity pain is as instant and simple as a flick of a switch
Switch to Colgate® SENSITIVE with PRO-ARGIN technology. CLINICALLY PROVEN TO PROVIDE INSTANT¹,* AND LONG-LASTING PAIN RELIEF²
Dentine hypersensitivity is a chronic problem, affecting up to 57% of patients³⁻⁵ Many patients do not report DHS at the dentist’s office and their sensitivity burden remains unresolved.⁶
Arginine is an ingredient in our sensitive toothpaste that forms a protective layer over exposed dentine, which helps to ease sensitivity. The protective layer works by blocking external stimuli like hot, cold or sweet food and drinks from reaching dentine tubules to help you avoid discomfort.
We recommend you use our toothpaste for sensitive teeth twice a day and, for prolonged sensitivity relief, you should follow your dentist’s advice.
* For instant relief, apply directly to the sensitive tooth with a fingertip and massage gently for 1 minute, up to twice a day and for children 6-12 years once a week or less frequently. †With
continued use 2x per day. For lasting relief, apply to a gentle toothbrush making sure to brush all sensitive areas of the teeth. **Based on the amount of relevant clinical studies in Meta-
Analysis 2023 of toothpaste occluding technologies only (Pollard et al. J of Dent. 130 (2023) 10443: 1-13)§Versus previous formula, in vitro occlusion after 3 brushings. #Versus previous
formula, in vitro acid resistance after 5 brushings. ‡After 4 weeks of continued use. ^With continuous use.

§ For instant relief, apply directly to the sensitive tooth with a fingertip and massage gently for 1 minute, up to twice a day and for children 6-12 years once a week or less frequently. Supported by a subanalysis of Nathoo S, et al 2009. Data show that 42 subjects out of 42 (100% or 10 out of 10) experienced immediate sensitivity relief on both tactile and air blast measures after a single direct topical self-application using the fingertip and massaging.
§§ With continued use 2x per day. For lasting relief, apply to a gentle toothbrush making sure to brush all sensitive areas of the teeth. Supported by a subanalysis of Docimo R, et al 2009. At 4 weeks, 40 out of 40 subjects (100%, 10 out of 10) achieved lasting sensitivity relief on both tactile and air blast measures.
