Re: Toothpaste Advice
Vicky, what causes most of the burning sensation in toothpastes is this ingredient called sodium laurel sulfate. It is the foaming agent and also found in shampoos and prob other products. It is not a necessary ingredient for good oral hyg.
Anyways, the toothpastes i would recommend would be the toothpaste made by Biotene. Also, Rembrandt has a line called "for canker sore sufferers". Both of these should be tolerable for your mouth and it will also lessen the chances of getting a canker sore.
Stay away from the toothpastes that are for whitening, or tartar control.
