One problem of getting old!

 

I use this toothpaste, its not cheap but it does work. I started using it a few years ago when I noticed my lower front teeth didn't like me eating chunks of ice cream, biting it.
All the packaging  looks the same, well there might be a slight difference because  there is a variety, all the same make but now some say, whitening, or repair or faster repair or repair and protect! I don't mind which it is as long as its paste and not blue jell! I don't like the texture of the jell. Easy enough, but as we have our groceries delivered getting what I like is a problem, because we can never remember which packaging is what!!

This week it turned out to be the jell and I feel I have to use it, because we threw one out a few weeks ago. (Dh doesn't like it) And I've got used to it, but now we've worked out how not to get it again, we've kept the box to refer to it not to make the same mistake...altho now I've got used to it does it matter? We were a bit slow working that out!
This getting old is a problem!

I had à lot of gum fillings done when I was younger from brushing too much. I needed to use sensodyne but not so much now, it's back to cheap Colgate.

It's good to know that Sensodyne works as my lower teeth are starting to be more sensitive, too.

My dentist said for me to use the blue jell, its better for my aging teeth, it has taken a bit of time to like it.

We use the same brand. There are so many choices with that brand is the problem for us!

I believe they have a good product, but I've only used the paste for an occasional sensitivity. What gripes me now with aging, my lower front teeth are getting crooked! Hard to floss between and can't get a good bite on things. They told me that is how our teeth move with age. I swear they did it over night!

I have the same issue when ordering groceries that way, sometimes what I order isn't what I think it is!

It is so frustrating when the packaging is similar and you are in a hurry. I got 2 packs in a BOGOF . I got home a found it was the wrong variety. Neither of us liked it. I put the 2nd unopened tube in the Foodbank.(For their toiletries section , noh to be eaten, obvs!)

OH uses Sensodyne, but I buy it when its on offer in B&M. I use Colgate, but also have a flosser machine and the hygenist said she can see a difference in how good my gums are now. Xx

Colgate is my choice. I also use a water pic and floss too. :) I just had my 6 month check up and cleaning and happy to report no problems!!
