Sensodyne Fresh Mint

Sensodyne Fresh Mint is Haleon's mint potassium nitrate paste. The Canadian page says it works inside the tooth to help calm the nerves, with a mint flavour that leaves breath feeling fresh, and lists potassium nitrate 5% w/w and sodium fluoride 0.243%.

It is everyday sensitivity care, not the 60-second Rapid Relief stannous fluoride line.

Haleon plc owns Sensodyne. Fresh Mint is imported into the Canadian market, not evidenced as made here.
