How long does it take for Denta 5000 Plus to start working?
Denta 5000 Plus begins strengthening your teeth with each use, but it may take several weeks to notice a significant reduction in tooth sensitivity or cavity prevention. Regular use as directed is essential for optimal benefits.

How Does Denta 5000 Plus Work?
