Crest Gum and Sensitivity All Day Protection Toothpaste
80% of sensitivity starts at the gumline due to recession.* Crest Gum & Sensitivity helps heal gingivitis, while the InstaShield™ Formula quickly treats and helps prevent† root sensitivity.
Crest Gum and Sensitivity works by:
- Killing plaque bacteria that can lead to gingivitis, a risk for gingival recession - a cause of root sensitivity
- Occluding tubules to provide relief from sensitivity
- Creating a layer of protection to shield exposed dentin for root sensitivity relief
