This World Oral Health Day, Sensodyne, the #1 Sensitivity Toothpaste brand in Malaysia*, launched Sensodyne Sensitivity Gum & Enamel, a clinically proven, ground-breaking innovation with a specialized triple mode of action formula that provides long-lasting sensitivity relief, helps restores gum health, and strengthens enamel in two weeks.
Its innovative Micro Foam technology effectively delivers the active ingredient (Stannous Fluoride) in hard-to-reach areas between teeth and along the gumline.
Oral health problems are considered to be largely preventable through effective oral hygiene, yet their prevalence remains high. In Malaysia, 94% of Malaysian adults have gum problems, 71% suffer from tooth sensitivity, and nearly 46% experience yellowing of teeth, which may be due to the loss of enamel, according to a 2021 Kantar study.
These findings highlight a significant consumer need for solutions addressing a range of oral health concerns in Malaysia. Sensitivity in teeth is primarily caused by gum issues and enamel erosion. Enamel is the outer most protective layer of the tooth which may weaken with time due to acids in common food and beverages, whereas gum problems stem from plaque bacteria accumulation.
“While many Malaysians face tooth sensitivity, gum problems, and enamel issues, solutions exist”, says Bryan Wong, General Manager, Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei (MSB), Haleon. Bryan added, "Nine out of tens adults are at risk of enamel loss due to acidic foods, yet so many people are unaware of the effect it can have on our teeth.
"At Haleon, we believe that healthy teeth should not be an exclusive privilege. Through the introduction of Sensodyne Sensitivity Gum & Enamel and the #BetterOralCareNation campaign, we aim to inspire Malaysians to prioritize their oral health by presenting accessible solutions.”
Sensodyne is continuing its movement of #BetterOralCareNation to raise oral health awareness across Malaysia and motivate Malaysians to prioritize their oral health for healthier gums and teeth. The campaign includes a captivating television commercial, eye-catching outdoor advertising, engaging on-ground activities, and informative content across Sensodyne Malaysia's website, social media channels, and traditional media platforms.
By collaborating with healthcare professionals, social media creators, and influencers, Sensodyne aims to deliver channel-relevant reliable information!
Sensodyne Sensitivity Gum & Enamel toothpaste can be found in pharmacies, dental clinics, minimarkets, supermarkets, and hypermarkets across Malaysia.
