I like Marvis for when I wake up after getting shitfaced and smoking half a pack of cigarettes. All other mornings I use Tom's of Maine.

Just started using the new Iso-active Sensodyne. Kinda like it. I like Marvis' flavor but I need the sensitive stuff.

I just started using Aquafresh Iso-active toothpaste. My doc needed me to switch to the iso-active stuff in preparation for my dental implant surgery.

Based on how fresh my mouth feels after using this stuff, I'd say their claim that it kills 3 times the bacteria as ordinary toothpaste has some merit. It feels like you're brushing your teeth with foaming mouthwash. Love it. As for it's teeth whitening function... I haven't noticed anything.

Yeah, I remember something about that. All the arm and hammer stuff with baking soda was pretty bad. Straight baking soda will turn your teeth grey after many years. I think Toms of Main and Sensodyne were pretty gentle.

I use sensodyne. I have sensative teeth as is, which is made worse by a particular tooth that has a receeding gum line. It's not visable, but I really should have it corrected. I just need to wait for a week where it wont be too much of a push up to be in pain and taste nothing by my own blood

Sensitivity aside, Aquafreash Extreme Clean leaves my teeth feeling the most clean.

Also, if any of you guys get tonsil stones.. those little white balls that you cough up every once in a while that stink like the plague... therabreath has absolutely gotten rid of them for me. I haven't had one since i started using it.


Definitely therabreath. I've been using it since 2005 and it gets rid of sore throats and the common cold. I've still gotten the flu tough

but the times I have gotten a cold I was brushing with something else or skipped brushing a few days.

Off track but his mouthwash is also a great deodorizer. People cutting garlic/onions just splash on their hands and it kills the smell. I've touched stinky stuff, let it sit a few seconds and the smell is gone. Mythbusters need to use it on skunk smell. I bet it gets it out right away.

Spry Dental Defense - good taste, no fluoride and no sugar. It's fresh, works well and not too sweet.
