Phenomenal NHa toothpaste
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1), Set name: Adult Mint
I am fluoride free. Itโs toxic AND did you know it oxidizes the tooth from the inside out and actually MAKES your TEETH YELLOW!? Crest even admitted it. Fluorides risks outweigh the teeth benefits but LUCKILY thereโs a more superior solution: nano hydroxyapatite for our teeth remineralization needs. Itโs safe and proven to be more effective as a remineralizing agent, unlike fluoride which cannot remineralize on its own - it requires the minerals in your saliva to work, so if your saliva isnโt at the optimal levels, itโs useless to teeth. But I have been on a teeth whitening journey - got my teeth whitened at my dentist but I ate a tangerine and they got stained again. (Stupid me. Bye $325!) While Iโve restored the whiteness back with various at home products, itโs been at the expense of my enamel and has caused a lot of sensitivity. Sensodyne was given to me by my dentist but when I saw it visibly yellow my teeth after the dentistโs first bleaching, I went down a rabbit hole to get to the bottom of it as to why. Additionally, my enamel has been getting more and and more clear, and I needed this to be addressed. NHa has been proven to restore enamel which treats tooth sensitivity instead of just numbing the nerves with potassium nitrate like Sensodyne does which treats the symptom and not the cause (tooth demineralization, sighโฆ such a western medicine move). When I bought this for the first time I was immediately pleased - thereโs NO scary flavor (if youโve ever tried *natural* toothpastes, especially ones of India, You KNOW!). Thereโs no cardamom or other cinnamon or out of the ordinary flavors here. The consistency is that of normal toothpaste. Great foaming action. Has helped my sensitivity in 2 applications, Iโm 100% without sensitivity but even better, my teeth my are less clear. This truly restores enamel.
But, hereโs my gripes. #1 - I have no idea how much hydroxyapatite is in this. I know it works, but as a consumer, I deserve to know what % of the star ingredient is used in a product that Iโm specifically buying it for.
#2 - the toothpaste color isโฆ lightish yellow. Think a healthy โmucus yellowโ - Iโm so sorry for the that description, but when I spit up bits of toothpaste in my sink, it looks like boogers. Thatโs an issue when Iโm busy whitening my teeth at home & Iโm avoiding eating foods that stain teeth for at least 2 hours after so that my saliva can naturally seal my dental pores that are being blasted open with peroxide. If I brush my teeth after whitening Iโm extremely paranoid that Iโm pushing YELLOW toothpaste into my porous teeth, and I donโt need to keep driving myself crazy thinking that the NHa is potentially sealing that color in. I also want to be able to put my NHa toothpaste in clean whitening trays to give myself a mineralizing treatment without worrying about it staining my teeth from prolonged/concentrated contact. Mind you - this is very paranoid of me to think, but Iโve spent a lot fixing my teeth bleaching then restaining fiasco, so Iโm not taking any chances. While I donโt think itโs yellowing my teeth at all, because of the color, Iโll never think itโs whitening them.
But donโt let this deter you from purchasing. It helps sensitivity after one use, has shown to make my enamel less clear, and has a normal toothpaste consistency and foams up great. I recommend it.
