Fluoride free toothpastes - a list. Toothpaste with nano-hydroxyapatite in the fight against caries

Here is an article and a photo that have been circulating on the Internet for some time, we read:

Oral hygiene is being revolutionized by Japanese scientist Kause Yamagashi. He invented a toothpaste that quickly and painlessly restores tooth enamel, closes holes and cracks in the teeth. And all this without the help of dentists! The composition of the paste was obtained as a result of experiments with hydroxyl apatite - the main component of teeth - and it is similar to the composition of tooth enamel.

The paste can be applied directly to the damaged area of ​​the tooth. First, the acid contained in the substance slightly dissolves the surface of the cracked enamel. After three minutes, the paste crystallizes and the artificial material is firmly integrated into the structure of natural enamel.

Tests conducted by Japanese dentists show that a tooth healed with such a paste is no different from a healthy one. The difference is not visible even under a microscope.

But what is it really?

Let's start with the fact that in the picture there is a black Korean Charcle paste with activated carbon(to eliminate bad breath)

Here is what they write on one of the forums:

AT recent times a series of articles about toothpaste with hydroxyapatite flew across the Russian Internet. Photos everywhere really were black Korean paste. This prompted us to order Adguard pastes in Japan. On eBay, sellers of such pasta were quickly found with free shipping and the price is $15. Lied with delivery = $ 3.6
So, order 1.03 was received at the post office on 03.27. Less than a month, which I think is fast enough. The price of an analogue in Russia is 1150 rubles.
The paste came in a small package.
The packaging is beyond praise. The paste itself is lined with corrugated cardboard and wrapped in a bubble
The paste is white...
And now a little more about the paste itself and the manufacturer:

Hydroxyapatite SP-1 is a mineral of natural origin, the cell of its crystal includes two molecules.

Approximately 70% of the solid ground substance of the bone is formed by inorganic compounds, the main component of which is the inorganic mineral hydroxyapatite. Deprived of impurities, it is the main mineral in the composition of tooth enamel and dentin.

Hydroxyapatite is the main mineral of bone tissue and hard tissues of the tooth. Ceramics based on it does not cause a rejection reaction and is able to actively bind to healthy bone tissue. Due to these properties, hydroxyapatite can be successfully used in the restoration of damaged bones, as well as as part of a bioactive layer for better implant ingrowth.

Exchange reactions on the tooth surface

The whiteness of our teeth depends on the color of the dentin, also called the color " Ivory". Dentin is the calcified tissue of the tooth that forms its bulk and determines its shape. Enamel is located on top of the dentin - the hardest tissue of the body that protects the dentin and tooth pulp from exposure external factors. The beauty of our teeth depends on the condition of the enamel. The enamel of a healthy tooth is translucent, its color is close to the true color of ivory. When the enamel becomes covered with plaque and stains, is subjected to a sharp mechanical impact, and also as a result of an imbalance between the processes of demineralization and remineralization, the surface of the tooth becomes dull and cloudy, and the tooth itself needs professional treatment.

The main component of dentine (70%) and enamel (97%) - hydroxyapatite - is biological calcium phosphate and the third largest component of our body (after water and collagen). Human saliva, which contains a large number of calcium ions and phosphate ions, is a kind of saturated hydroxyapatite solution. It protects teeth by neutralizing plaque acids and replenishes the loss of minerals during demineralization.

Once sugar enters the mouth, plaque bacteria convert the sugar into acid, and the pH of the plaque drops dramatically. As long as it remains in the acidic range and the plaque fluids are undersaturated compared to the minerals in the tooth, acids produced by the bacteria diffuse through the plaque and into the tooth, leaching calcium and phosphorus from the enamel. Demineralization takes place.

Between periods of acid formation, the alkaline buffers present in saliva diffuse into the plaque and neutralize the acids present, which arrests the loss of calcium and phosphorus. Remineralization takes place.

Remineralization occurs between periods of demineralization.

Demineralization

Remineralization

Ideally, when these processes occurring on the tooth surface are in dynamic equilibrium, there is no loss of minerals. But with excessive plaque formation, decreased salivation, food intake, rich in carbohydrates, the balance is completely shifted towards demineralization. As a result, tooth decay occurs.

It is known that on early stage demineralization, or stage " white spot”, the development of caries can be prevented by the timely intake of the required amount of minerals. As a result, full-fledged tooth tissues are formed, stabilizing further development disease and its complications.

Innovation in the oral care market

In 1970, Sangi Co., Ltd developed a remineralizing toothpaste containing hydroxyapatite nanoparticles to meet the needs of the public. It was first launched in 1980 by Apagard and sold over 50 million tubes. Then, extensive laboratory testing of the active ingredients of the toothpaste was carried out, after which, in 1993, hydroxyapatite was approved in Japan as an anti-caries agent. It was called medical hydroxyapatite to distinguish it from other types of hydroxyapatite (dental abrasives).

The particle sizes of hydroxyapatite manufactured by Sangi were measured in nanometers (preferably 100 nm and above). In 2003, improved technology for the production of hydroxyapatite made it possible to obtain hydroxyapatite with smaller particles (20-80 nm)

Laboratory tests have demonstrated their great remineralizing ability in relation to tooth enamel. (1 nanometer = 0.000001 millimeter)

Remineralizing toothpastes and oral care products with medical nanohydroxyapatite, developed by Sangi, are divided into two main types:

Sangi first showed serious interest in hydroxyapatite after receiving a patent for its use from NASA in 1970. The third main component of our body after water and collagen, hydroxyapatite is widely used in medicine and dentistry due to its excellent biocompatibility. As a material that restores bone tissue, it is used in dentistry, orthopedics, maxillofacial surgery for bone grafting and implantation. Hydroxyapatite is also added to perfumes, cosmetics and food products, mainly to toothpastes.

To date, oral care products are the company's main source of revenue, although hydroxyapatite is included in many of their other products: nutritional supplements, cosmetic ingredients, and adsorbents for chromatographic analysis and other research.

The priority direction of their activity is product development. And for more than 30 years, Sangi has been focusing on research and development, carefully guarding its patent. They have more than 70 approved patents covering various fields of application, and about a hundred more are pending in Japan and other countries. Sangi is currently the largest producer of hydroxyapatite in the world.

The real effectiveness of all this, of course, must be looked at in practice and experience. Search the Internet, read what they write. In general, I am skeptical about all kinds of pastes, shampoos, etc. there. It often happens that this is at least safe and that’s good, and even to all the unique properties there ... Here are some more revelations for you: for example, but is it really But they say that this is also The original article is on the website InfoGlaz.rf Link to the article from which this copy is made -

Remineralizing toothpastes and oral care products with medical nanohydroxyapatite, developed by Sangi, are divided into two main types:

Goods for the general consumer sold in pharmacies under the Apagard® brand.

Professional care products branded Renamel® exclusively for dentists. These include After-PMTC® Finishing Paste and After Bleach® Enamel Conditioner, as well as Apagard Renamel® premium remineralizing toothpaste for home use.

In 1993, considering additional possibilities of using nanocrystalline medical hydroxyapatite (nano mHAP) as an anti-caries agent, Japanese specialists discovered three of its main functions:

Helps remove plaque

Adhesion to plaque particles with subsequent removal

Nano mHAP has high ability bind to proteins. During brushing, it “sticks” to bacteria and plaque particles, making it easier to rinse and remove from the mouth.

Restores enamel smoothness

Restoration of microcracks on the enamel surface

Nano mHAP acts identically to a filling, "blocking up" small pits and fissures that form on the surface of the enamel. As a result, the enamel becomes shiny, smooth and more resistant to plaque bacteria and stains.

Replenishes lost minerals

Remineralization of demineralized areas of the inner layer of enamel (the initial stage of caries)

Nano mHAP provides minerals to those areas under the surface of the enamel where they have been lost (the so-called white spot stage in the formation of caries). Thanks to this, the enamel returns to its original density and translucency, protecting the teeth from destruction.

Nanocrystalline mHAP is non-abrasive and biocompatible with dental tissue. It not only helps to remove plaque, but also provides an influx of minerals to the enamel layers, restoring microscopic damage in them. Thanks to this, the enamel becomes dense and smooth again, providing the teeth with beauty and aesthetic appearance.

Introduction to Sangi

The third main component of our body after water and collagen, hydroxyapatite is widely used in medicine and dentistry due to its excellent biocompatibility. As a material that restores bone tissue, it is used in dentistry, orthopedics, maxillofacial surgery for bone grafting and implantation.

They have more than 70 approved patents covering various fields of application, and about a hundred more are pending in Japan and other countries. Sangi is currently the largest producer of hydroxyapatite in the world.

Before shifting this or that product from the supermarket shelf to the basket, many people carefully read the information on the packaging: what does the product that will be eaten consists of.

This is not the case when choosing toothpaste. Here, a commercial often plays a decisive role, obsessively stuck in the head. So a beautifully packaged lie with its main component, whose name is fluorine, comes to our house.

The harm of this chemical element

As such, this substance is almost never found in nature. It is distributed in the form of chemical compounds with other substances. We absorb some of these compounds when brushing our teeth:

• sodium fluoride;
• sodium fluorosilicate;
• fluorosilicic acid.

Fluorine is not in a hurry to be quickly excreted from the body, it prefers to accumulate in teeth, bones, but with greater intensity it penetrates and remains in the thyroid gland, as if cementing it.

Fluorine compounds are dangerous for the body. So sodium fluoride, if you inhale it, affects the respiratory system, circulatory, central nervous system, kidneys, heart. When we take sodium fluoride orally, we take a toxic substance with a lethal dose of 5 to 10 grams. It can affect the brain, cause a heart attack, paralyze the respiratory organs.

Patients with diabetes and people suffering from kidney failure are most affected.

Advice! If the toothpaste contains at least one of these components, you should decide for yourself whether to use such a cleaning and whitening agent or look for another without the presence of fluoride.

And some more information about the dangers of this element, see the following video:

Is there an alternative?

If the inscriptions on the package inform that the composition contains one of the calcium compounds:

• calcium pantothenate;
• calcium lactate;
• calcium glycerophosphate;
• calcium citrate;
• synthetic hydroxyapatite,

President Unique. Italian company Betafarma S.p.A.

Preservatives, allergens, parabens, sodium lauryl sulfate, dyes and, of course, fluorine are absent in this case. The natural plant-based formula gently enhances the natural protection of the oral cavity.

Calcium and xylitol thoroughly clean the enamel. The soothing and antibacterial effect is guaranteed by bioextracts of echinacea, sage, chamomile. Anethole and eucalyptus, selected in ideal proportions, serve to create a sensation of delicate, fresh, long-lasting taste.

• as prevention of caries, inflammatory processes in the gums;
• with a lack of calcium in the body;
• to strengthen the gums, increase the gloss of the enamel;
• for accurate and effective destruction of plaque;
• to reduce sensitivity.

It is advisable to apply two or three times a day. Estimated cost of 100 ml package - 190 rubles.

Products from the domestic manufacturer SPLAT-"Biocalcium"

Earned recognition for being it contains no harmful ingredients, but there are useful active substances that contribute to the restoration of 30% of the enamel, normalizing the pH balance, healing wounds, containing moisturizing elements, safely polishing the enamel.

With regard to aesthetic qualities, users note a pleasant consistency of the product, similar to creams of good density. A pleasant impression is left by the taste - sweetish, moderately reminiscent of mint. A pleasant freshness is felt in the mouth for a couple of hours or before the first meal.

Those who prioritize whitening will be upset. The whitening effect is almost absent. The disadvantages also include the presence of the preservative Sodium Methylparaben, and it is dangerous, like all parabens.

What in the end? The pros are:

• price - quite affordable - 130 rubles;
• smell and taste are pleasant;
• cleansing - careful;
• the presence of useful extracts;
• the feeling of freshness is long lasting.

Unfortunately, there is also a minus - the composition includes paraben.

Another creation of the SPLAT company - SPLAT-"Maximum"

The product is considered one of the achievements of modern dentistry. It is designed to quickly solve the following tasks:

• protection of damaged and problematic areas of enamel from the occurrence of caries;
• providing a feeling of freshness in the oral cavity;
• raid elimination;
• preventing the spread of harmful microbes;
• healing of inflamed gums.

These effects are achieved through the use of only natural ingredients. Nanohydroxyapatite is used to strengthen the damaged areas of the enamel. Removing stains from wine, tobacco, tea, coffee, dissolving plaque is the task of papain and polydon. Anti-inflammatory action is intended to provide thymon and zinc. But SLS and fluorine are not used.

Gentle cleansing is not accompanied by bleeding gums. After the cleaning procedure, a rather pleasant taste remains in the mouth, slightly reminiscent of eucalyptus oil. Pasta will appeal to those who love the formation of foam during dental care.

An unpleasant surprise may be a slight tingling in the mouth at the end of the process. And that seems to be the only downside. And to the listed pluses, one should add a low price - 115 rubles per 100 ml tube.

"ROCS" for adults" from a Russian manufacturer

Without using fluorine in the manufacture of the product, the creators achieve high level protection against harmful microbes with alternative components: xylitol, bromelain, magnesium chloride, calcium glycerophosphate. A 75% increase in enamel acid resistance is one of the effects of using ROCS for adults.”

Plaque, which is the cause of dental disease, is gently and gently broken down, and the ability of bacteria to recreate new plaque is reduced. At the same time, the state of microflora in the oral cavity is normalized.

As a consequence of the increased cleaning power, there is no need for a high content of abrasive substances. This effect will be of interest to people with increased enamel abrasion.

And now the advantages suggested by users:

• sensitivity decreases;
• a huge assortment with different taste properties;
• excellent composition;
• excellent cleansing

and disadvantages:

• 200 rubles - not so cheap;
• uneconomical - too liquid, more flows onto the brush than required.

ASEPTA Sensitive

Experts recommend this therapeutic and prophylactic paste:

• for people who have increased tooth sensitivity;
• to prevent inflammation in the gums, to prevent bleeding.

Medicinal properties are provided by the use of such components:

• thermal mud is necessary for healing, recovery, as a sedative;
• citrate and hydroxyapatite reduce pain, create enamel protection for a long time;
• to combat harmful microbes in inflamed gums, calendula, calamus, sweet clover are thrown in the form of extracts;
• and papain, which serves to prevent the formation of plaque.

The paste has a dense texture, perfectly foams, has a slight taste of mint. When squeezing it out for the first time, you need to be prepared for the fact that a greenish substance will appear on the brush. You will have to pay 150 rubles for a tube.

"New pearls with calcium" from "Nevskaya cosmetics"

The cheapness of the product (30 rubles) is due to the absence of additional additives, as well as enzymes and xylitol. The only link of active action is calcium citrate. Its task is the mineralization of the teeth, although not sufficient.

Above were toothpastes for adults. Next will be reviewed fluoride-free oral protection products for babies.

Italian gel-paste "PRESIDENT Baby"

No allergens, no parabens, no fluoride, no sugar! Gel paste has a raspberry smell and taste. It is designed for babies from the first tooth to the age of three. Gently cares for milk teeth, harmlessly eliminates plaque. Calcium, together with xylitol and phosphates, protects against caries and restores health to fragile gums.

A 30 ml tube costs 100 rubles.

Gel with calendula "Weleda" (Germany)

Gel of delicate consistency containing an extract from calendula flowers, mint oil, fennel oil, esculin. The components will not harm the child, even if he decides to eat pasta.

Gel-paste has an attractive taste and a light menthol smell, does not pinch the tongue. During cleaning, foam is not formed. Leaves a wonderful feeling of freshness. Effectively removes plaque.

Since the gel does not contain calcium, it is recommended to alternate it with pastes, for example, those containing calcium glycerophosphate.

Price - 300 rubles per 50 ml.

"SPLAT Juicy Set" (Russia)

It is designed for use by both young children and adults. Intensively strengthens enamel due to the content in the composition of an easily digestible form of calcium - hydroxyapatite. Enzymes also contained in the paste serve to increase the immunity of the mucous membrane and prevent the appearance of stomatitis.

Three tubes in a set cost 250 rubles.

"SPLAT Junior" - children's

Recommended for kids up to four years. Includes xylitol and calcium, which, in combination with enzymes, increase the degree of mucosal protection. Especially useful for babies prone to frequent stomatitis.

Aloe Vera gel reduces discomfort when the first teeth appear. Creamy vanilla taste provokes children to try pasta. It's completely safe.

Unpleasantly surprised by the declared non-existent component of calcis. Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not give explanations, and the incomprehensible seems dangerous.

The price of a tube is 179 rubles.

"ROCS - PRO Baby" (Russia) - children's

It can be used for the little ones. For the manufacture of the paste, a very soft base was used, which, while gently cleaning, does not damage the fragile enamel of milk teeth. All ingredients are of natural origin.

The absence of fragrances does not force the child to try the paste. When cleaning foam is not formed. After application on the teeth remains a feeling of good cleanliness.

Price - 210 rubles.

Summing up, it must be said that someone will remain faithful to fluoride pastes, not wanting to change anything, while someone will think and reconsider their attitude to the described subject. Each person must draw conclusions on the basis of extensive information.

  In 2013, I thought about the health of my teeth when I saw white spots appear on the enamel. I read on the Internet that this is a symptom of oversaturation of teeth with fluoride. I decided to replace the paste with tooth powder, but it is not very convenient to use: it crumbles, stains clothes and the lid is uncomfortable. Then I stopped using the cleaning agent altogether and brushed my teeth with just a dry brush, but my teeth lost their whiteness, which was due to the paste. And how to be? I want a snow-white smile without yellowness and spots. You need good pasta. Thanks to the article, I figured out my problem and now I know which paste to buy. Even the budget "Pearl" is perfect 🙂 Thank you 🙂

  I'm in different time I tried both “Splat” and “New Pearls” pastes, but it seemed to me that after application, freshness in the mouth was not felt very well, so now I use “President” more often. In my opinion, the effect of cleanliness is longer, and my sensitive gums have practically stopped bleeding. The fact that it is also harmless to the body, as it turned out, is a huge plus.

  I recently learned with surprise and horror that most toothpastes contain sodium fluoride. Previously, I did not think about this issue, but various sources report that sodium fluoride is not only not useful, but also extremely harmful. Its effect is comparable to the effect of lead on the body. I tried to find a toothpaste without fluoride, it turned out to be difficult, but I still searched. Yes, Prezident proved to be the most suitable toothpaste to use.

  Splat only at the beginning was without fluorine, which is why I bought it, after, as it happens, the manufacturer began to quietly add it. The inscription appeared in small print in the composition. And earlier it was written that without fluorine, now this inscription has disappeared.

About truly magical properties hydroxyapatite I found out when I read about some super popular toothpaste from Japan. It was this component that was the key to the success of this paste.

Calcium hydroxyapatite Сa10(PO4)6(OH)2 is the main inorganic component of bone tissue.

According to some studies, hydroxyapatite in toothpaste is able to integrate into tooth enamel and even repair microcracks. However, we read what the manufacturer writes (and this is still the same Splat) on the official website:

Amorphous calcium nanohydroxyapatite

Calcium hydroxyapatite (HAP) is the main mineral of bone tissue and hard tissues of the tooth, contained in almost all body fluids.

HAP nanoparticles in an active amorphous form (mHAP) penetrate deep into vulnerable areas of enamel, effectively strengthening it and acting on all causes of tooth sensitivity, including cervical caries and gingival recession. In contrast to the crystalline particles of HAP, which cannot participate in the process of enamel mineralization.

Clinically proven *

For those who know English, I will give two more links: one and two. There, too, about this same hydroxyapatite.

So, for me, suffering from dental deficiencies (in the form of caries mainly, plus sore gums), it became vital to buy a paste with this most wonderful mineral, and preferably cheaper than the Japanese miracle paste. As you already understood, the local manufacturer Splat came to the rescue with its INNOVA line. After walking around the local shops, I bought INNOVA sensitive paste - for enamel, gums, and sensitive teeth.

It looks like this:

Here you will see the price at the same time (to be fair, I’ll say that you can buy both cheaper and more expensive - it all depends on the pharmacy). The cardboard is embossed, the printing is excellent, with embossing, you can immediately see that the paste is not easy. Plus a bunch of encouraging inscriptions - about nano-restoration, sensitive teeth and 92.7% natural. The usual volume is 75 ml.

In general, the whole box is strewn with inscriptions and information, which you can also find on the official website.

Everything is right about me here - weakened enamel, dilated dentinal tubules, and I can say that I have tried all kinds of toothpastes for sensitive enamel - the effect is weak, quickly passing.

The manufacturer is Russian, the shelf life is 2 years.

For those interested - the composition (with the white balance gone into the unknown)

The tube is made in joyful summer colors, the plastic is matte, the print is good, many of the inscriptions from the packaging are duplicated.

At the back, there is quite a bit of detail about the ingredients - you can brush your teeth and at the same time read about everything useful in the paste. Pretty handy lid.

You don't have to unscrew anything. The dispenser is also just right, but there is nothing miraculous here, in many Splatovsky pastes this is the case. As you have already noticed, the paste is a slightly uncharacteristic putty color - beige.

Consistency thick, uniform. The most interesting - smell. Personally, he reminded me of the smell of tooth powder, not mint, ordinary. Nothing unpleasant, but if someone hopes for something interesting - this will not be here. The smell is not strong, does not remain in the mouth.

Foaming toothpaste is good - but will not give super-foam. I traditionally brush my teeth in a small volume (about the size of a pea), this is quite enough to spit out the foam a couple of times. Taste not pronounced, slightly sweet. In general, when brushing your teeth, there is no magic in the form of taste-smell-cooling. After cleaning, there is a feeling of cleanliness and freshness (not minty).

The most important- there was a feeling of smoothness of the teeth, and it does not disappear for a long time (everyone probably noticed that after eating, for example, muffins, there is a feeling of plaque on the teeth?), the plaque appears very weakly. Bleeding gums were not noticed - but whether the paste played its role, or it was a coincidence, I will not say. The sensitivity of the enamel decreased (but did not disappear). I have been brushing this paste for about a month and a half, it seems to me that she began to remove the plaque stain from the lower tooth (it is crooked and collects everything) - in any case, it has decreased.

Total: I recommend this paste, 200 r is not the amount to save on dental health. In any case, you will almost immediately understand whether it is yours or not. INNOVA sensitive perfectly removes plaque, gives smoothness to teeth, is gentle on gums and sensitive enamel, and possibly whitens teeth and reanimates enamel with hydroxyapatite. And I have something to compare with - the pastes have been tried immeasurably, I am ready to put 6 stars out of 5 on this one.

Do not forget- everything written is a purely personal opinion based on at least personal experience use of toothpaste.

And I want to say- brush your teeth properly, at least a couple of minutes at least twice a day, use floss and rinses, this will help reduce the number of visits to the dentist.

Health to you and your teeth

nano-mHAP ®

Hydroxyapatite (Ca1062) is one of the main materials that make up human bones and teeth. For example, tooth enamel is 97%, dentin is 70% calcium hydroxide phosphate. Even human saliva, which contains a large amount of calcium ions and phosphate ions, is a kind of saturated solution of hydroxyapatite.

In the oral cavity, a natural process of demineralization and remineralization of tooth enamel occurs, i.e. washing out and saturation of enamel with micro- and macro-elements.

Quite often, due to numerous factors (poor oral hygiene, nutritional problems, period active growth in adolescents, pregnancy), the leaching of mineral components may predominate over the intake of inorganic compounds.

The optimal way out in such a situation is artificial remineralization, through the competent choice of oral hygiene products containing high concentrations hydroxyapatite. However, not all forms of hydroxyapatite are equally effective, it is obvious that the smaller the particles of the active substance, the higher their penetrating power. Particles are recognized as the most effective, which, due to their nanosize, are able to provide a sufficient influx of essential minerals into the tooth tissue.

The main active ingredient in APADENT® toothpastes is nano-mHAP ® (Medical Nano-Hydroxyapatite), developed in 1978 by SANGI Corporation scientists and recognized by the Japanese Ministry of Health in 1993 as an effective anti-caries agent. The uniqueness of nano-mHAP ® the fact that the particles of the active substance are crushed and have sizes of up to 50 nanometers, which not only increases organic compatibility and safety, but also provides a sufficient supply of essential minerals to the tooth tissue.

As a result of clinical studies conducted by the Department of Preventive Dentistry, Asahi University (Japan) in 1986-1988, it was found that oral hygiene products containing nano-mHAP ® effectively prevent the development of caries by an average of 46%.

Both natural hydroxyapatite and its synthesized variant have very high compatibility with human body and are widely used in orthopedic therapy and dentistry (bone restoration, dental cement, implant shells, etc.), as well as in the production of various food additives as it is very rich in calcium phosphate. Hydroxyapatite is sometimes used as an abrasive, but its unique form, developed by Sangi and approved by the Japanese government, "Medical Nano-Hydroxyapatite" is non-solventing. On the contrary, it restores microscopic defects and damage to the surface of the tooth enamel, restoring the natural mineral balance and translucency of the enamel, and even reverses the incipient formation of caries, which can lead to tooth decay.

ANTICARIES EFFECT OF MEDICAL NANO-HYDROXYAPATITE

Dentists identify three main areas of anti-caries action of Medical Nano-Hydroxyapatite.
