Can Sensodyne make your teeth more sensitive - is there a group of people who have the opposite reaction to it - Maybe the whitening version?

My Husband and I both are using the Sensodyne Gentle Whitening toothpaste for the first time and have found our teeth have become SUPER sensitive. It's only just occurred to us the only difference is the toothpaste. I have some teeth that feel like there's an ice cube on them. They are much much worse than they were before using it. I used to have only 1 sensitive spot, now my whole mouth is electric with spots.

I had some recent dental work and am finding the large filling I had has moments of piercing pain! I've never had such sensitive teeth in my life!!

Thanks Sensodyne.

OMG! The exact same thing happened to me. My dentist suggested I use sensodyne. And it seems that my sensitivity worsened. I think I will stop using it and see if I see a difference.

I have always had sensitive teeth but just started using the Sensodyne Extra Whitening and within in 2 days my teeth are super sensitive, especially the front top ones. OMG. I quit using it and am going back to regular colgate.
