Rebuilt enamel damage as well as fluoride toothpaste in a 10-day lab study.
SUPPLEMENTS
Nanohydroxyapatite Toothpaste for Tooth Remineralization
RESEARCH
- Rebuilds tooth enamel
- Works like fluoride
- Reduces sensitivity
- Lab and clinical studies
COMMUNITY
- Works well, pricey
- Fluoride works better
- Non-nano safer choice
SAFETYGenerally safe; some people report concerns about mineralization beyond the mouth, though evidence is limited—ask your dentist if concerned.

50% positive
“Biomin-F is probably the best one out there, could get a bit pricey though. I've been using it for a few years anow and I can't go back to anything else - and the mint taste is not abusively strong like other pastes, it's perfect.”
U/LUCELLENT ↗“I personally stay away from the nanohydroxyapatite because there's been some reports of it causing mineralization beyond the mouth. The non-nano version doesn't have these same reports. I'm in the US and bought some imported Sensodyne off eBay that has both novamin and flouride to try out. Not exactly what you're asking for but going after the same goal of remineralization of teeth.”
U/GARBANZOBENNE ↗“Fluoride does remineralize. And, according to the research so far, it does it better than nanohydroxyapatite. I think the reason why you can't find a toothpaste with both is because the demand for nanohydroxyapatite toothpaste is dominated by people who are scared of fluoride. And the companies that sell nanohydroxyapatite toothpaste use that to motivate customers.”
