Pronamel Toothpaste Review
I recently started using a toothpaste that is supposed to help restore the enamel on your teeth from years of acid wear and tear. Believe it or not, enamel wear and not enough enamel on the teeth are very common problems, and most likely a big part of the reason our teeth get stained more easily and tend to look duller and be more sensitive to heats, cold, and sweets. I thought that I really needed to start to help replenishing the enamel on my teeth, because I did start to have the sensitivities described, and I also felt that my teeth were starting to look dull.
I have been an overzealous teeth-brusher ever since I can remember. I thought, well, I’m scrubbing really hard, so I’m doing a good, thorough job, and that’s what I should be doing. Turns out, I’ve been scrubbing too hard all these years, and not only does that hurt the enamel on your teeth by wearing it away faster than it should naturally, but brushing too hard can also contribute to gum recession.
Receding gums happens to also be a problem of mine that’s required two oral surgeries to repair so far, and will require more in the future (unfortunately, because to be honest gum surgery is one of the most unpleasant experiences I’ve ever had!) The Pronamel toothpaste is supposed to be used for no longer than 4 week periods at a time per the labeling, although I’m not sure why, and is said to help protect against acid wear and tear (we all eat acidy foods, including coffee and some highly acidic foods like tomatoes and some fruits, vinegars and other acid based foods), and also to help replenish your enamel.
Now, I’m not sure how a toothpaste can actually help to replenish the enamel that’s worn off, but every time I used this stuff, I feel like my teeth are stronger. They are squeaky clean every time you finish brushing, so much so that you can actually hear and feel the toothbrush squeaking against your teeth, so it does feel like it’s doing something, perhaps coating the teeth in a protective layer?
Overall, I like Pronamel toothpaste so far, and will continue to use it for as long as the label indicates. I will probably use it periodically for the rest of my life, to help protect my teeth against further enamel erosion.
