The holidays are a time to cherish your loved ones, show them how much you care, and eat eat eat. Hot cocoa and peppermint ice cream are wintertime staples, but not if you have sensitive teeth. The shooting pains and aching jaws are enough to make you put down that mug of hot cocoa and hide underneath the Christmas tree.

It doesn’t bother me, though, because I use Biotene for my sensitive teeth. I recieved a sample a few months back and noticed a difference in the sensitivity of my teeth immediately. When I was through with my sample, I rushed out and bought a tube from the drug store and I’ve been able to enjoy my peppermint ice cream ever since.

The ingredients in Biotene don’t relieve the symptoms of sensitive teeth, they get to the root of the problem by helping fight dry mouth (which can increase tooth sensitivity), bacteria growth, and gingivitis. The combination eliminates sensitivity, bad breath, and keeps your teeth sparkling clean.

You can purchased Biotene through HEB, Harmon, Hocks, Kerr Drug, Meijer, Rite-Aid, and other drug stores. If you don’t see it on the shelf, ask your pharmacy for it by name and they can order it for you.
