Best whitening toothpastes reported safe for use on sensitive teeth

If you suffer from overly sensitive teeth, it is good to know which products meet your dental needs. Before choosing any brand, you should understand what whitening toothpastes are for and what is in them.

A typical gel consists of mild abrasives and low-dose chemicals, containing hydrogen peroxide or PAP. In most instances, they will give you one or two shades of whiter teeth, but without aggravating sensitivity.

Dr Jenni Rawes, from the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, recently recommended her current picks.

The ZING Original Mint Toothpaste is a premium, vegan-friendly product that is serious about protecting teeth. It offers a balance of whitening efficacy, sensitivity care and enamel repair.

The Sensodyne Extra Whitening Duo Pack Toothpaste is recommended for people who experience sensitivity while craving a brighter smile. It was found to be gentler on gums than other products.

Dr Rawes also selected the Whites Beaconsfield Teeth Whitening Toothpaste for its kindness to enamel. It has been found to remineralise worn areas while dissolving stains gently.

The Humble Co Natural Whitening Toothpaste is almost entirely derived from natural ingredients and offers simultaneous cavity protection and surface stain removal. Elsewhere, the Icy Bear Sensitive Teeth Whitening Toothpaste is specifically aimed at users with super sensitive teeth.

Other toothpastes Dr Rawes suggested include the Oral-B Sensitivity & Gum Calm Toothpaste with Gentle Whitening, Biomed Coconut Oil 97% Natural Whitening Toothpaste, Gem Triple Whitening Toothpaste Crisp Mint, Colgate Sensitive Instant Relief Repair and Gentle Whitening Toothpaste and the SPLAT Ultracomplex Toothpaste.
