When the protective layer of teeth (enamel) is worn away, or gums recede, the dentine underneath becomes exposed. When the exposed dentine comes in contact with hot, cold, sweet or sour food and drinks, it can trigger a sharp, short sensation called tooth sensitivity.

Sensoform is a medicated, foaming and non-fluoridated dental cream for sensitive teeth and gums. It contains Strontium chloride and is used primarily in the treatment of teeth hypersensitivity and inflammation of dental cavities and gums.
