To start, I have very worn down teeth from grinding during my sleep, so I have some level of sensitivity to hot and cold if I don't use sensitive toothpastes regularly.
I've used other sensitivity toothpastes in the past, but I've found that a lot of them tend to be super high price per unit and generally have the same active ingredient regardless of brand. That's why I went with Colgate's sensitive toothpaste. It's fairly priced, comes in bulk packaging, and is perfect for my sensitivity needs. The active ingredient to prevent tooth sensitivity is in this formulation, and I haven't had any issues with sensitivity since starting this toothpaste. It's pretty much the same quality as the more expensive versions.
On whitening, I don't really think it does anything. I think it's a really common thing now for all toothpastes to claim that they whiten, but this toothpaste doesn't really do anything special on that front. You're more likely to benefit from whitening strips or a professional whitening. On the bright side, I did a professional whitening while using this product, and my sensitivity after each treatment pretty much went away after brushing with this.
Overall, I would recommend this to people looking to cut some costs on their sensitive toothpaste and buy in bulk. Is it going to make your teeth super white and completely insensitive to extremes? No. But that's just like any other sensitivity toothpaste; no solution is perfect. I think this is one that works for me and my sensitivity needs, but if you have serious sensitivity issues, you may need a different formulation.

Sensitivity Triggers
Tooth sensitivity is experienced as a short, sharp painful sensation, which can occur after eating or drinking something hot, cold, sweet, or acidic.
What Causes Sensitivity?
Exposed dentin can lead to sensitive teeth pain. Dentin is the underlying tooth surface that contains openings that lead to the nerve and act as the pathway to sensitivity pain.
Over time, dentin can become exposed due to:
• Enamel erosion
• Gum recession
• Tooth grinding
• Improper brushing
Tips for Sensitivity Relief:
- Brush with a specifically-formulated Colgate Sensitive toothpaste twice daily
- Use a soft-bristled toothbrush
- Brush gently to help prevent enamel wear and gum recession
- Consult a dental professional for other treatment options
