Managing severe tooth sensitivity with type 2 diabetes after Biomin F discontinued

I'm type 2 diabetic, and really suffer with hypersensitivity in my teeth. I see the Dentist every 9 to 12 months, and even a scale/polish needs me to have my mouth numbed.

I thought I'd found the holy grail using Biomin F toothpaste and Listerine sensitivity mouthwash, but both have been discontinued much to my horror. I'm currently on my 6th different tube of Sensodyne but am in agony with my teeth and just wondered if anyone else had find a way to manage the sensitivity.

i need a prescription from my dentist. that prescription stuff sorts me right out.

i found that sensodyne whitening doesn’t work at all. original sensodyne works a bit better, but see your dentist for the good 5000 parts stuff. (i have no idea what that means lol)

Not diabetic, but Regenerist works for sensitivity.
