        Sensodyne started to cause my mouth to peel and stopped working as well as it was so I had to find a different product. I found a product to used silver. Been using it a year without peeling and my sensitivity is much better. Sadly I cannot find a non US manufacturer. But there may be one out there.

          I had a similar issue with normal toothpaste and it turned out it was sensitivity to sodium lauryl sulphate. While some sensodyne pastes have SLS in them, the proper sensitivity stuff with NOVAMIN in the ingredients doesn’t and my peeling mucosa is no more.

          As the other person who replied to you said, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS) is likely the cause, it was for me. Sensodyne do a Pronamel range which doesn’t contain SLS and I’ve been using it for a couple of years with no issues as a result.

        Saaaaame ugh. Other toothpastes have Sodium Laurel Sulfate which gives me horrid mouth ulcers. I’ll shill for Sensodyne any day (as I did like an hour ago on another post hahaha)

      I might be misremembering, but I don’t think you’re supposed to use Sensodyne every time you brush. Read the packaging, but I think it says to use it like every other day or something.
