I looked high and low for a Hydroxyapatite toothpaste that did NOT contain glycerin, this is one of the very few (if not the only one) that is glycerin free, if you are wondering why, glycerin coats your teeth and can prevent re-mineralization which would defeat the purpose of this particular toothpaste. I am on my second tube, I wanted to use it for a while to make sure it worked, and it does. The toothpaste is a bit on the thinner side (compared to other toothpastes), which is fine, it does not affect it at all, it works fine, just be aware that when you squeeze some out, it will come out faster than you expect and might even run down the side of the toothbrush, I am frugal with it, I don't squeeze out a bunch of it so it's not a problem. I also "shake" the tube a bit before I open it, since it's thinner, I want to make sure all the ingredients are equally mixed in the tube before I squeeze it out, I don't know for a fact that it does or does not separate, it's just something I do for my own peace of mind. I brush my teeth with this toothpaste and spit it out but I don't rinse, I allow the residual toothpaste to remain in my mouth and on my teeth to get the most benefit from it. I noticed that within a few days, my teeth were less sensitive, I don't have a major problem with sensitivity but I did notice the difference. I feel like this gets my teeth and mouth very clean. I like the ingredients, the flavor is not like other toothpaste, it has more natural ingredients so it doesn't have that blasting, knock your head off mint flavor like so many other toothpastes have, this is more subtle, pleasant. I also noticed that my bottom teeth seem tighter, if I use a different toothpaste for a few days, I feel like my bottom front teeth move a little, not major movement, but it's there. When I use this toothpaste regularly, daily, it makes my teeth feel more tight. Bottom line, I will continue using this. Read more
This is really minty! Be prepared for that. I LOVE it. This toothpaste has been a game changer. I think it reversed two small cavities. I was surprised because I had delayed having them filled due to losing my dental insurance coverage and when I went in 12 months later for a cleaning with x-rays and they said there wasn't anything to be concerned about. I didn't probe further but I think it's because this toothpaste as it's the only change I made. I also had significantly less plaque buildup than normal. The hygienist said he couldn't believe it'd been a whole year between cleanings and there wasn't much work for him to do. I don't even floss every day! Very good product. It's a more expensive toothpaste but worth the money! Read more
I love the taste of this product, and I love that it may be helping me reverse a cavity. I don’t love the grittiness. It’s almost like it has pepper in it because it makes my tongue burn and swell like pepper does. I’m not sure why or what’s in it that would make that happen, but it does. I don’t feel like this is the greatest value for the price. It cost the same as my toothpaste choose that I order from another company. And I would much rather have the toothpaste choose. They don’t make my tongue burn and swell. I may order this again, because it seems to be very effective, but it’s not something I want to use all the time. Read more
This toothpaste is more healthy because it does not contain fluoride. Read more
There is a brand I get in Canada (Xpur Remin on Amazon.ca) that has the same key ingredient and worked in 3 days. However, I was away and couldn't get it before going back to Canada. This one claimed to have the same ingredient so I thought I would try it. It took about 2 weeks to make any noticeable effect. Yes, it did work, just not as good as the other brand nor as fast. The main drawback is that the mint flavor is very, very strong to the point of unpleasantness the first two weeks (I've been using it for a month or more now). I also find that if I brush for a longer time, the paste becomes thick and harder to wash out of your mouth than normal toothpaste. I didn't find this with the other brand. One caution. I looked up other brands with hypoxyapatite (the key ingredient) and no other ones on Amazon would disclose their percentage as if it was some big secret. Whereas, this company is open and upfront with it increasing my level of trust. Another thing I found with other brands was that they included unnecessary and potentially harmful ingredients. For instance, one brand on Amazon said it used coconut water in the toothpaste. First, coconut water does nothing for your teeth--seriously, nothing. Have you ever heard a dentist say "you should brush your teeth with coconut water." Second, coconut water contains 0.4g or sugar per tablespoon. Sure, it is small in the toothpaste but why would I brush my teeth with anything with sugar in it, sort of defeats the purpose of cleaning your teeth for no upside benefit other than a marketing ploy. Overall, this product does work. It isn't cheap, the company was open and upfront, it just takes a while to work and overcome the high mint flavor. Read more

Best toothpaste I’ve used. The taste can be off putting at first but you get used to it. It’s not horrible just weird lol. Ever since I found out glycerine is bad for your teeth and enamel and it seems to be in all other toothpastes, I got this one for its benefits and the fact that it’s glycerin free! I also avoid fluoride as well so that’s another bonus. It works great!! Read more
