What toothpaste do you use?
I always used to use straight old original Colgate but recently got suckered into the buy-one-get-one-free etc offers and have been using the cold white crystals, cool whitening gel version or whatever is on offer. I have to admit for some time I've thought they haven't been cleaning my teeth so well because they don't seem to be very abrasive and just foam up a lot. I swapped back to original Colgate today as a trial and, as suspected, it does a much better job and my teeth actually feel clean.
Anyone else noticed this? What are you using at the moment?

Recently swapped from Aquafresh to Colgate, for no good reason other than it was BOGOF. However I don't really notice any difference between the two, or for that matter between Tesco's own.

I got some Colegate Blue Minty Gel because it was only a quid for a big tube.
Never really notice the difference between the bog standard quid a tube stuff and the 2 and a half quid a tube with added crystals chipped from the bicarbonate mines of the Balearics.

I'm always very skeptical of just about anything of this nature. I can never see how one toothpaste can clean 2x better than whatever or another make it whiter, and if they're ever really worth the extra money. I always looks at the sensodine toothpaste and wonder how it can actually make my teeth any less susceptible to hot/cold (since i don't like cold things). I never bother buying it because its 2/3 times the price of whatever is on offer. My dentist keeps telling me i have amazing teeth as well so i'm lucky or doing something right, i think more lucky than anything though.

Colgate 2 in 1 Whitening something or other iirc. Bought it as it was on special offer at the time.
When that runs out, I'll be buying whatever is on special offer/cheapest
