🩺 Clinical
This is a fluoride toothpaste marketed over the counter for sensitive teeth and gums. It contains potassium nitrate, which is commonly used in desensitizing products to help reduce tooth sensitivity, and sodium fluoride, a mineral salt typically added to toothpastes to strengthen tooth enamel and help prevent decay. The product is applied by brushing onto teeth and is regulated as an OTC monograph drug, meaning it follows established FDA guidelines for this category rather than being individually reviewed.
