Don't use or use it with caution if you absolutely have to

I hate to write negative reviews but just couldn't resist it as it is what it is! Please beware of this sensodyne. My dentist recommended this to me as my teeth were sensitive after dental work. Oh boy, it created havoc in my mouth & as dumb as I sound, it took me 2 months to figure out that it was this toothpaste when my dentist told me to apply little pea sized amount on my redinflammed gums. I did it & suffered terrible after effect- it burnt my whole mouth & created extreme pain. That's when I knew that inflammed gums are because of using this toothpaste to brush my teeth. I still am in lot of pain. Can't eat/drink/speak properly. Don't use or use it with caution if you absolutely have to.
