PriviDent - has more fluoride in it, dentist has me use it for my gums mostly, it helps combat the fact that i brushed too hard for many many years

Big Name Brand with Scope built in. Can't remember who it is (Crest, Colgate, one of those Cs). The only toothpaste that leaves my whole mouth feeling clean. Though I do like to change it up every so often.

Sensodyne Extra Whitening - because I don't want my teeth to hurt when eating cold foods, do want them to have a nice white color, and don't want them to fall out via tooth decay.

Same here. Plus I always have a more explosive day when I brush with it...

Got some Crest sensitivity last night. It comes in a smaller 4.1oz tube and says "clinical". (More marketing at work?)

I've noticed some sensitivity with my teeth that I don't particularly like and so maybe this will help.

Toms of Maine because the flavor's are better, and it doesn't have the disgusting sweetness of mainstream toothpaste.

This. The aftertaste is much less noticeable than than the cheap kinds. It takes me over two months to use a tube, so the extra couple of bucks is nothing.
