Common questions

Is Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint healthy?

Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in, plus lab results from its product family, Sensodyne Extra/Advanced Whitening (triphosphate + SMCT). It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint?

Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint lists 16 ingredients, starting with Water, Hydrated Silica, Sorbitol, Glycerin and Pentasodium Triphosphate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint?

Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint compare to other toothpaste?

At 15/100 Sensodyne Extra Whitening Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste Mint scores worse than most toothpaste we have scored. A higher-scoring option in toothpaste is Pepsodent Herbal Fresh Mint Sage Chamomile Myrrh Toothpaste at 100/100.
