Please don't include sensodyne in your response. I've tried that toothpaste, and while it's good for sensitive teeth it is packed with sugar and does increase blood sugar levels.

I would suggest u the neem sticks instead of the paste. u will have to bite (like a cow) and brush, it may seem odd but the results are good.
Or
use powdered (pinch of) salt, and brush with ur index finger slowly and massaging the gums.

I'm type 1 diabetic, I've never used a sugar free toothpaste, and I've never actually heard of that. Do you really think that the little amount of toothpaste you use on your toothbrush is going to affect your blood sugar??
I mean you don't even swallow your toothpaste when you think about it.
If your that preoccupied, I'm sure that you can ask your pharmacist if they have anything to recommend you. Or even talk about this to your dentist.
Hope this helps!!

The pea sized bit of toothpaste you use on a toothbrush, shouldn't effect your blood sugar.

I agree with Cammie, you shouldn't worry about the amount of sugar that's absorbed in your mouth when you wash your teeth, it's tiny.
