Our Science

As leaders in the field of tooth sensitivity, we're committed to working together with academic institutions and laboratories. These relationships allow us to develop our knowledge and understanding of tooth sensitivity and its impact on people's lives. By putting science at the heart of what we do, we'll continue to apply the latest scientific innovations and help more people relieve their tooth sensitivity pain.

Technologies for Sensitivity Relief

Our scientists have identified and formulated a number of specific technologies for inclusion in the Sensodyne range - for example -potassium nitrate, NovaMin™ and stannous fluoride - to help relieve tooth sensitivity. These technologies work to either soothe the nerves inside sensitive teeth, or to shield and protect the exposed dentine.
