I tried a watermelon flavored toothpaste and liked it because it didn't have that STRONG minty taste, which bothers me cuz it's SO strong.  But it doesn't claim to be a WHITENING toothpaste, so I went back to a brand that claims to whiten, but that strong mint flavor is just too much for my mouth, I guess.  Anyone?  TIA

@spent2much  I seem to have the same issue. Mint flavors burn my tongue. I started using Boka toothpaste and it is very soothing. I have the Orange Cream and Ginger flavors. TBH, my mouth doesn't have that minty clean feeling but I can't handle the burning sensation. I purchase from Ulta or Amazon. Just realized, though, that it doesn't claim to whiten.

I use the one with "Optic" in its name, and have no challenge.  (I also have a mouth full of individual implants.)

i would like to find a toothpaste that doesnt dry out my mouth.  i use Pronamel whitening but its way too foamy.

@spent2much , no recommendation but if you are trying to use some up, try mixing it with a brand you like.

Can't help you, unfortunately, but will follow. My mouth is sensitive to these whitening toothpastes and the skin peels off the inside of my mouth and makes my teeth even more sensitive. Even Sensodyne is too harsh for me. I get sensitive toothpaste from my dentist but it doesn't have that minty fresh feeling. Anxious to hear other recommendations.

My tongue and the inside of my cheeks are sensitive too. I use Sensodyne Clinical White without a problem.

My toothpaste of choice is CaliWhite.

Fluoride-free and I use the mint which is a very light mint.  It also contains vitamin B12, which helps autoimmune.

I have Oral Lichen planus and cannot risk strong flavors burning my mouth.

I also have an implant and use Colgate Optic White either the paste or the blue gel, no issues. My teeth are pretty darn white at 72, ,my last crown was a shade A1, that is the whitest you can get.

You could try one of the ones on HSN by Dr Jablow.  Intelliwhite
