About 5 years ago, I started noticing an increase in hot/cold sensitivity on my furthest back bottom molars on one side. This started occurring almost immediately after a dentist visit, which I'm assuming was due to a combination of enamel erosion from nighttime acid reflux further worsened by an overly abrasive dental cleaning. My dentist essentially said that everything looked fine and healthy without suggesting any further solutions, so I gave the original version of this toothpaste a try since it was only a few bucks at the time. To my amazement, after the first brushing, I could immediately notice a significant decrease in sensitivity and after a week or two of twice-daily brushing, the sensitivity was completely gone! To make matters with this toothpaste unnecessarily confusing, the very first version I tried was called "Crest Pro-Health Sensitive & Enamel Shield" (not "Advanced") which came in a lighter blue packaging, had an unusual but interesting and enjoyable teaberry flavor (aka American Wintergreen) and had a very smooth texture. This version was the best and I bought many boxes of it over the years until Crest decided to reformulate it for some reason. The 2nd version had the exact same name and packaging, a slightly less smooth texture and more of a regular "minty" taste. Unfortunately, this version didn't seem to work quite as well for sensitivity, but after it started becoming harder to find at retailers, it still worked better than other Stannous Fluoride pastes from Crest's newest Pro-Health Advanced line-up (including their much more expensive ones like "Pro-Health Gum & Sensitive"). My teeth have always been somewhat sensitive to many whitening agents used in toothpastes, so I'm guessing that's partly the difference. Fast-forward to today, and while that exact same "Sensitivity & Enamel Shield" is still listed as a current product on Crest's own website, it is simply not available to purchase anywhere and Crest customer care informed me that it had been discontinued. Having come across this particular listing at Amazon with the old name still being shown, I decided to spend $5 to try "Crest Pro-Health Advanced Sensitive Relief" (which wasn't suggested by Crest or even listed any where on their website). As pictured, it came in darker blue packaging (with "Advanced") but had "Sensitive Relief" in the same light pink shield/rectangle that used to say "Sensitive & Enamel Shield" and all of the primary listed benefits appeared to be the same or very similar. Essentially, this is the 3rd reformulation, but so far, it seems to work just as well as the original. The flavor is again different and even mintier, but with a slight touch of the original teaberry flavor. The texture is now more of a coarse, slightly gritty gel, which I dislike more than the other versions, but it does seem to leave me teeth feeling smoother and more polished, so that's fine. It also seems to have a slight baking soda taste and level of foaming (which isn't as great as "Pro-Health Gum & Enamel Restore", but works well enough). All in all, I will gladly continue buying this product forever, but after seeing so many reformulations, repackaging and just all around difficulty trying to purchase this toothpaste during the past 5 years, I'm very leery about patronizing a manufacturer that creates an amazingly good product and can't stop messing with it or are unable to keep it stocked on store shelves. Other than that concern, my only other complaint would be the current pricing. I really see no reason why this newest version is $5 when all the other toothpastes in Crest's line-up are around $3. The original reason I even tried the first Crest formula was mostly because it was an affordable alternative to brands like Sensodyne and Crest's own Pro-Health "Gum" line-up, which are all pretty good in their own right.

I've used this toothpaste in the past, usually, dental work related, and thus most recent time is the same. I had my teeth whitened by zoom and this toothpaste was a lifesaver for the sensitivity sharp pains. The last time I had then whitened I didn't use THIS toothpaste and I swear they hurt for days! I was expecting some sensitivity for days and no joke, after brushing twice the night of the procedure and the next morning...I expected to have some more sensitivity and it was gone! Granted, I used this in conjunction with Listerine's Sensitivity Mouthwash as well, but nonetheless, it's worth noting! If you're having sensitivity issues, look no further! Buy this and the mouthwash to go with it and boom! You'll feel better soon! As least I did! Definitely worth buying and trying! Plus it literally does everything you can possibly want or need in a toothpaste to cover all your bases of cleanliness, freshness, and whitening.

My order arrived quickly, and it was packaged very well. Crest Pro-Health is a wonderful toothpaste to use for sensitive teeth an gums. This is a great product.

This is really good toothpaste for sensitive teeth and helps stop bleeding gums. It's well worth the price and I find it good value too. Smooth toothpaste, nice flavor, cleans teeth and fights bacteria that causes bleeding gums.
