Thanks for your advice re: suggestions for dental care/mouth care. I appreciate your suggestions and will try them.
As for trying to find a toothpaste without mint - only one I found is Tom's (as per your suggestion). However, it still has that Sodium Laurel Sulfate ingredient. Bryanna - you mentioned that it is not good for you - [poison?) All toothpastes I resarched have that in them - as do the regular ones Colgate, etc. that I used to use. I am going to call the res Q dent number tomorrow to get more info on their ingredients. In the meantime I am using the Tom's apricot - no mint. Seems to be OK so far. Slowly trying to brush my teeth again with an ultra soft brush . Thanks to the injections the burning lips, etc. are improving. You asked who gives me the injections - a dentist who specializes in facial pain, mouth pain gives me the injections. He is phenomenal with knowing the facial nerves, etc. They are so painful - but have really helped.
I also want a toothpaste with no whitening ingred. They seem to have silica -the natural ones do. It seems that the new toothpastes have all these new ingredients in which are harsh on my sensitive teeth.
Thanks for all your help
