Toothpaste silly question?

Hi--


i have a question.. it might sounds stupid, but i just thought i%26#039;d ask.... my teeth are sensitive so i need to use a toothpast for that, but i feel they are not clean enough afer i brush them with that.. so i use another one after i%26#039;m done with the first one... basically here is how i brush my teeth:


1-brush with sensitivity toothpaste


2-brusth with regular toothpaste (listerine)


3-mouthwash with listerine


4-brush with leave-in toothpaste (fluoride for prevention)





and my question is: when i%26#039;m done brushing is the first toothpaste still acting on my teeth, or did it get washed/brushed away with the 2nd or mouthwash?

Toothpaste silly question?
Why do you think they aren%26#039;t clean enough with the sensitivity toothpaste? The toothpaste doesn%26#039;t really %26quot;clean%26quot; your teeth. Rather the manual action of brushing your teeth cleans them.





Do you just prefer the %26quot;tingling%26quot; of the listerine toothpaste and mouthwash? If so, do this: brush with the toothpaste you prefer. Eliminate the mouthwash. Brush with leave-in paste. The extra fluoride often fills in dental tubules and reduces sensitivity.





Consider switching from the harsher listerine toothpaste to one like Colgate Total or Crest ProHealth.
Reply:Yep, you%26#039;re probably washing away the benefits of the 1st brushing. And Listerine isn%26#039;t something to play with. You just stated that your teeth are sensitive why are you using something that strong. Here%26#039;s mine.


plain baking soda then the toothpaste.
Reply:omg...just brush your teeth,use mouthwash and floss!! thats all it is to it!!
Reply:If you are doing all that the first toothpaste is pretty much useless since you are brushing it away too quickly after applying it. I think you are doing too much. Over brushing is just as bad as underbrushing.


Try doing #3 first, then #2 and changing #2 with #1 in the morning to apply the sensitivity paste.
