SALIVEA Dry Mouth Toothpaste (1 Pack) — 4.3 oz, Anticavity Fluoride, Natural Salivary Enzymes, Xylitol & Calcium, SLS-Free, Moisturizing Dry Mouth Care, Soothing Mint

Thank you to the other reviewers who provided information on this product being the old, original Biotene formula, I may have never stumbled onto this excellent product without your help. I have a very sensitive mouth, anything minty, too sweet or salty, spicy, hot, acidy, or even sharp like hard candy or chips, can cause burning and sores in my mouth. I used the original Biotene formula for years and did well with it, until the formula was changed, and I could no longer tolerate it. After much time and research, along with many wasted tubes of supposed "gentle" toothpastes, I found that Squiggle tooth builder in the green tube worked for me. Until recently. One reviewer pointed out a change in Squiggle's formula based on the ingredients list, which I did not notice, but my mouth certainly did. More searching and buying of toothpaste that didn't work. Stumbled onto the Salivea for dry mouth, which I also occasionally suffer from, and read the reviews about Laclede producing the old Biotene formula again after the short sighted corporate hacks at the big corporation changed the formula and ruined it. Thank you Laclede for (hopefully) caring about actual people, customers who NEED this product, and will be loyal to it until they die if you continue to produce it! We may not be a large cohort, but there are enough of us who know what works and are so exhausted from searching for new products every time an excellent product is changed, cheapened, or "new and improved," which means just the opposite. This toothpaste is wonderful again, my mouth can tolerate it multiple times a day, it is very soothing, doesn't burn, actually improves my mouth when I flare up from allergies or sensitivities or get sores. The taste is mild but clean, the texture is smooth and comfortable, not watery or gritty as some reviews stated. It is an excellent toothpaste for those of us with mouth sensitivity, canker sores, and dryness issues. I encourage you to at least try a tube to see if it will work for you if you have the same issues I do. I am (selfishly) hoping the customer base will be built up again so that they never stop making this toothpaste with this particular formula again! The price is good considering a lot of other "sensitive" toothpastes I tried were priced much higher. And honestly, I would pay a bit more to have my mouth feel ok and not hurt everyday. If you like super minty, burn your mouth clean toothpaste, (and I understand you, my husband is one of you) then this is not for you. But just because it is not for you, please recognize that it is a godsend for some of us. I am thrilled most people don't suffer the horrible issues I have with my sensitive mouth, and admire your ability to tolerate all that hot peppermint, cinnamon, or whatever minty clean toothpaste you love. But this product is extremely valuable and soothing for the right people, and we desperately need it, because we are ignored by big corporations that can sell to the larger cohort of average consumers without problematic issues. Thanks again to the reviewers who provided good information, and THANK YOU, Laclede, for producing this extremely helpful product to those of us who suffer from mouth issues like sensitivity, allergy, sores, and dryness. You have really helped this particular consumer, and I am very grateful!

Best toothpaste for sensitive teeth and for people with dry mouth. has a very mild mint taste and smooth texture which allows to only plc a small amount on the toothbrush. It is also fluoride-free.

I thought I would try Salivea for my dry mouth issues after reading reviews here. I also purchased the Salivea Mouth Wash for dry mouth. I have only been using both for about 2 weeks. It probably has helped somewhat, but truly very little. I see people have complained that it has no foam and is runny. That is true because it doesn't contain the chemical Sodium Lauryl Sulfate which isn't the best thing for us. So I will accept the runny quality. SLS can also contribute to mouth sores. And I find that since using the Salivea, I have had zero mouth sores. That is a secondary benefit. I do wish the toothpaste had more of a minty flavor. It has no flavor in my opinion. The mouthwash, however, has a nice minty flavor. I will continue to use this till the end of the tube and then decide whether to reorder.....Okay it is 2 months later and I now am changing my 3 stars to 4 stars. This toothpaste has really helped my dry mouth and I have not had a mouth sore for the two months I have been using it now. I used to have so many all the time. I reordered today!

I found original biotene in drugstore. Tried it because condition of gums, stained teeth on the label looked like what I was newly experiencing, and couldn’t find any help for. The toothpaste, mouthwash, and oral moisturizing gel were the trifecta of dry mouth care. My gums returned to health, the dark spots went away, my mouth felt healthy again! Then the label changed to GSK, and the monster was loose in the building! I stocked up knowing that this would change the product dramatically within a year. Sure enough the enzymes were removed, and it became run of the mill xylitol mouthwash, paste etc, but kept remained at the premium price point. It’s classic corporate money- mongering. Buy a great product, gut it, then keep selling it under the formerly reputable label. I AM SOOO GLAD that Laclede is back in the ring! I lost a lot of teeth to dry mouth in the meantime, but I am so glad to have Salivea. It is truly a treatment toothpaste, but it tastes fine. Of note, no stand-alone toothpaste does what some reviewers seem to hope for. I also use the mouthwash and (and because I can’t find Laclede reproduction of Oralbalance gel) Oral7 brand gel moisturizer- nothing but this triple hit compares in healing my oral tissues. It does not contain the SLSulfate foaming agent of other toothpastes because it irritates oral tissues, promoting damage. It does not contain strong artificial flavorings to irritate the mouth either. It does contain, and resupply, protective enzymes naturally found in a healthy mouth, but destroyed by dry mouth. Fully understanding how treatment options help is directly related to fully understanding condition of dry mouth. If you must have the gutless, candy red sports car, go to the other brands. But if you want the Rolls-Royce engine in your treatment oral care, stick with Laclede. One caveat: always check the label, even on your most trusted brands. Xylitol will never be able to mimic oral enzymes, which are key here. Chronic Dry Mouth care is not entirely about moisture alone. Great Product! Hopefully, Laclede will protect label integrity this time around.

Been using this toothpaste to help with dry mouth and it helps to ease the problem more than other toothpastes I have tried. It does not cure the problem.

I was hopeful this toothpaste would help with my dry mouth….the tiny print on the back shows that it contains derivatives of milk and egg protein. Unfortunately I am allergic to eggs. My bad though…..so my husband will use this $$$$ tube and I will keep looking.

I have OLP, a, autoimmune disease that causes raw skin in my mouth. This toothpaste is the best I've ever used. The mint in VERY mild. I can't use anything that has strong mint flavoring. This cleans as good as when I have my teeth cleaned at the dentist. Dry mouth is the wors/ for my OLP condition. I highly recommend this toothpaste. I will keep a stock of it on hand. I don't want to ever run out.

Haven’t had a canker sore since childhood but as soon as I used this i had one for the duration of use, stopped it went away. Brushed with it a few days later and I wake up with one again? Idk sort of weird. Also it doesn’t feel minty/refreshing enough. Not to mention I can’t physically tell the difference when I wake up if my mouth is any more moist. I’m probably going to toss it. Pretty disappointed.

Buen producto pero algo caro

I have severe dry mouth. All other toothpastes make my mouth burn unbearably. The flavour is a mild mint that doesn’t bother my mouth at all. This toothpaste is a godsend. Until you get to the price. It was barely affordable when it was $10 a tube. Now it’s $20!!! WTH? I have Sjögren’s syndrome and this is a need not a want.

I’ve been using Sensodyne… has a much better flavour than this one. This one doesn’t create much foam. I’m also using Salivea Mouth Wash for dry mouth before bed… that seems to work somewhat, but masks the effectiveness of their toothpaste… so I don’t know if the toothpaste works.
