      Yeah I avoid it for this reason. Also for anyone looking for toothpaste without it.

      Sensodyne doesn’t have it but it’s expensive.

      Some of the Toms doesn’t but most does.

      I found out the cheap dollar tree sensitive toothpaste doesn’t have it either. So that’s what I use.

      It’s actually pretty hard to find toothpaste without it. Hope that helps.

        Every time I’m out looking for tooth paste I have to dig and dig for the one or two that don’t have that ingredient. It’s annoying as heck. Everything is fine and then you return from a vacation with a canker sore because the travel pack had it. I wanna sue somebody over this.

          Every time I go to the dollar tree and it’s in stock I buy like 5 of them.

          Still less expensive than 1 tube of sensodyne.

          It’s not as minty. But does the job.

          Stock up when you find it.

          And yeah. I too will get sores even from using the regular kind for a few days. I think I’ve gotten more sensitive to it since I started avoiding it.

          My grand pappy swears that just brushing with baking soda (and water) is best. I tried that though and gagged on the taste and texture.
