Product introduction

Sentim-SF Toothpaste is used to prevent dental cavities (tooth decay). It works by strengthening the teeth by reducing the effects of acid and bacteria. Thus, makes them resistant to decay. It also provides relief in tooth hypersensitivity and inflammation of gums.

Follow the dentist's instructions and use Sentim-SF Toothpaste in the exact dose and duration as advised. Use it regularly to get the maximum benefits from it. Do not use it in larger or smaller amounts than prescribed. Do not stop using it without consulting your doctor until you have finished the complete course.

Using this medicine may cause a few side effects such as taste change and gum irritation. These are usually temporary and go away with time. However, if they bother you, let your doctor know. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medicine, as it may cause harmful effects to the developing baby.

Benefits of Sentim-SF Toothpaste

In Treatment of Hypersensitivity

Loss of the outer layer of tooth (enamel) may lead to exposure of the sensitive layer of tooth surface. This may cause extreme sensitivity to hot or cold food, fluids or even air. Sentim-SF Toothpaste helps remineralisation of the lost protective layer of the tooth and helps in relieving this hypersensitivity of teeth to hot or cold stimuli.

In Treatment of Inflammation of gums

Inflammation of gums may interfere with eating, drinking and even talking. Sentim-SF Toothpaste forms a coating over these inflamed areas on the gums and therefore, provides relief from pain, discomfort and symptoms of inflammation such as redness, swelling or burning sensation. This makes it easier for you to go about your daily activities. Continue using it as advised by the doctor to get maximum benefit.

In Treatment of Dental cavities

Dental cavities refers to the damage to a tooth that can happen when harmful bacteria in your mouth make acids that attack the tooth's surface, or enamel. If tooth decay is not treated, it can cause pain, infection, and even permanent loss of the affected tooth. Sentim-SF Toothpaste helps improve the resistance of teeth against these harmful bacteria and prevents dental cavities. This ensures that you have healthier teeth and improves oral health.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
