"Teeth really are weirdly picky; it's like trial-and-error meets dental roulette."
Haha, dental roulette is spot-on. I remember switching to a softer toothbrush thinking it'd be useless, but turns out my gums thanked me big time. Weird how less effort actually improved things. Now I'm wondering if toothpaste type matters as much as brushing style... anyone noticed a difference switching brands or formulas? I've been tempted by those sensitivity toothpastes but skeptical if they're worth the hype.
Sensitivity toothpaste actually surprised me... I was skeptical too, but after about two weeks, cold drinks stopped making me cringe. Might be worth a shot if your teeth are picky like mineβhave you tried any yet?

Glad you mentioned thisβI felt exactly the same way at first. Thought sensitivity toothpaste was just marketing hype until a friend practically forced a tube into my hand. Took me about three weeks to notice a difference, but man, biting into ice cream without bracing myself is a game changer. If you're still on the fence, I'd say give it a fair shot...might surprise you like it did me.
Yeah, been there too... I tried one of those toothpastes a while ago but didn't notice much difference. Maybe I gave up too soon? Now I'm wondering if I should've stuck it out longer.
Yeah, I feel you... those toothpastes can be hit or miss. Honestly, I didn't see much change until I combined it with whitening strips. Maybe try pairing them up? Could make a difference over time.
