Desensitizing Paste and Gel Products

Many of these products do clean teeth well. However, as a desensitizing tool, we recommend you increase the effectiveness of the desensitizing chemicals incorporated within them with a three step process: 1) Smash, 2) Massage, and 3) Brush.

Step 1: Put a 'dab' of the paste/gel on the end of a cotton swab, or fingertip, and "smash" on the tooth at the gum line where the sensitivity is occurring.

Step 2: "Massage" this paste onto the tooth surface. Keep the product on the same surface for at least 5 - 10 seconds.

Step 3: Put another dab of the paste on your regular toothbrush and gently "brush" all your teeth.
