Wintermint, Tom's of Maine - Fluoride-Free
Using potassium nitrate, a naturally occurring, clinically proven active ingredient, we have formulated this toothpaste to help soothe the pain of sensitive teeth. Its low-abrasion formula protects tooth enamel while cleaning teeth effectively, and has the fresh, clean taste of natural flavor oils, so it's never bitter. Builds increasing protection against the painful sensitivity of teeth to cold, heat, acids, sweets, or contact.
