What is Nano-hydroxyapatite?

Fluoride has been a long-standing part of your daily oral routine, but it's toxic! Choose Nano-Hydroxyapatite, a safe and scientifically proven alternative. It's biocompatible and perfect for those seeking a natural oral care routine!
What is it?
Hydroxyapatite is a material that is found naturally in your bones, teeth and saliva. It remineralizes enamel by replacing minerals such as calcium and phosphate, that are lost from acid produced by bacteria. The nano sized hydroxyapatite bonds to the enamel and fills tubules that also helps in teeth sensitivity. It's been used for years by NASA and also they were the first to medically apply NHAP in 1970 to repair and remineralize astronauts’ teeth. NHAP is also resistant to acid, so it's great for restoring demineralized enamel making surfaces smoother for brighter, more opaque teeth and less teeth sensitivity.
Why is it better than fluoride?
It's been shown that nano-hydroxyapatite is comparable to fluoride in remineralizing teeth. But they do it in different ways. Fluoride forms a protective material around teeth called fluorapatite binding to calcium and phosphate ions found in saliva. Nano-hydroxyapatite is a crystalline calcium phosphate that directly bonds to tooth surfaces and replaces lost minerals hardening your enamel better then fluoride. Basically fluoride remineralizes with a chemical reaction while NHAP does it naturally and is not toxic like fluoride.  There have been many studies that show hydroxyapatite aids in remineralization of small initial decay and has greater efficacy than fluoride.
  • Strengthens the enamel to better protect teeth from plaque
  • Reduced Tooth Sensitivity by filling in missing enamel
  • Fights soft tissue infections naturally
  • Remineralizes and repairs teeth
  • Bonds bones

 

Is Nano-Hydroxyapatite safe?

This naturally occurring organic material in our bodies is biocompatible and safer than other dental products. It is non-toxic and can be digested if swallowed, making it a safe alternative to fluoride which is toxic for adults and children.
