That all tracks for sure. Especially the xylitol part, some dentists will recommend it, particularly for people that have medical issues that play havoc with salivary ph or amounts.
I have tried it, because of the sensitivity stuff, but didn't find it any different from stannous fluoride or potassium nitrate. I've also tried the phosphosilicate, "novamin", with similar results for sensitivity.
Stannous fluoride ended up giving me the best results overall for my gums and other issues, so I've stuck with it for a while now. But they all seem to be effective, and safe under normal usage. So it isn't like anyone can go wrong with them.
