DWQA QuestionsCategory: Healing ModalitiesAre fluoride-free whitening toothpastes containing nano hydroxyapatite effective in providing strengthening of enamel and tooth decay prevention, given that tooth enamel is claimed to be 97% hydroxyapatite? Is this approach superior to the commonly used name brand fluoride toothpastes for tooth care?

The use of nano hydroxyapatite toothpastes can provide meaningful protection and strengthening of enamel so as to be an effective tool for preventing tooth decay. As such, it works as well and in some cases is superior to the use of fluoride. Given that fluoride has a downside in being neurotoxic, it is a significant liability that to us, outweighs any other useful property of fluoride-containing toothpastes.
