Why we love Calcium Hydroxyapatite HA!
You’ve probably never heard of it, but Hydroxyapatite, (HA) makes up more than 70% of our bone and tooth mass! It is one of the most widely studied materials for healing bone to date. It is able to remineralize the teeth by bonding directly to the tooth surfaces where they may be missing minerals due to erosion. It has recently been gaining strides in the fight against enamel erosion, cavities and other dental/bone problems by being used in toothpaste. Studies are showing that Hydroxyapatite may be a wonder, because it can do what fluoride/sealants claim to do, but in a safe and healthy manner. As you may know, Fluoride can be extremely harmful to the human system and is known to cause adverse health effects, and even more so in children, (who tend to use too much toothpaste) making them susceptible to fluorosis/fluoride poisoning). Because HA is recognized by the human body as something that belongs there, it is safe. In case you don't think all this is enough, HA also makes teeth whiter, (even more so than fluoride) not by bleaching or chemicals, but by hardening the enamel which is the most visible part of the teeth. When teeth turn off-white/yellow, it is because the enamel is thinning and what is beneath, (dentin) is showing through, which is actually gray/yellow. In studies, Hydroxyapatite faired equally to Fluoride in toothpastes, but without the harmful effects. Undoubtedly, Hydroxyapatite is the obvious choice!
Even now, dentists are recognizing the hazards and seeking alternatives, to Fluoride. Aside from the many studies proving fluoride to be a toxic substance to our systems, The International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, in a very recent study, has added a link between fluoride and eye/macular degeneration, cataract formation and other diseases of the eye.

Calcium Hydroxyapatite can work for people who suffer from sensitive teeth. Conventional sensitive toothpastes utilize desensitizing agents, which makes it a temporary fix. Whereas, Hydroxyapatite, in its bonding manner, may occlude dentin tubules, which means, it is closing the microscopic holes in the tooth's surface that allow cold, hot and other sensitizers to seep into the pulp/nerve and cause pain.
