10% Nano-Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste, Fluoride Free, Lavender Mint, 4oz | Fluoride-Free, With Baking Soda, Whitening, Helps Reduce Sensitivity, SLS-Free, For Adults & Kids

If you’ve landed here after using Boka, you’re not alone! While I have no issues with Boka, I couldn’t justify the price for less than 10% nano-hydroxyapatite. That’s why I switched to this brand, and I’m genuinely impressed. I was sceptical about the lavender mint flavour, but to my surprise, it’s actually quite pleasant! As well as smelled strong enough to curb any bad odour. For those unfamiliar, nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) is a fantastic alternative to fluoride, especially if you struggle with tooth sensitivity, enamel erosion, or exposed roots due to gum recession. The nano form allows it to penetrate tiny cracks and help remineralise and repair enamel and dentin loss caused by age or health issues. However, it’s important to remember that this doesn’t replace regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings! If your teeth are already in good shape with no ongoing sensitivity, a standard hydroxyapatite (HA) toothpaste may be all you need for maintenance. But if you're debating between HA and nHA, I’d suggest researching the benefits of each before deciding. - My Experience with Post-Treatment Sensitivity After undergoing root scaling and planing for moderate to severe periodontal disease (levels 3-7), I developed intense sensitivity, pain, and shocking sensations about six days post-treatment. My usual Boka toothpaste and a newly prescribed fluoride toothpaste weren’t helping. For two weeks, I suffered from numbing, electric-like pain on different areas of my upper teeth. Desperate for relief, I decided to try this nano-hydroxyapatite toothpaste—and I’m so glad I did! - Day 1: I still needed painkillers, but the discomfort was noticeably reduced. - Day 2: I was able to cut down my Nurofen intake. - By 96 hours (4 days): I felt like my normal self again! My teeth were also whitening! 🙌🏼 For best results, I recommend waiting at least 30 minutes before smoking, vaping, or drinking anything after brushing. Since this toothpaste contains 10% nano-hydroxyapatite, you’ll want to maximise its effectiveness. If cravings hit hard, I sometimes wait 15 minutes before vaping, but ideally, the longer, the better. Overall, this toothpaste exceeded my expectations in both functionality, smell, taste and effectiveness —definitely worth the switch! I hope my review was helpful. 🥹

I’ll start by saying that I love the taste and price of the toothpaste. I’ve only used it for a couple days so those are the only things I can recommend it for. It is gentle, leaves my mouth feeling fresh and invigorated, and the ingredients are safe and natural. I’ll purchase again and provide an update!

I honestly love this toothpaste! It doesn’t feel like I’m rubbing sugar or something on my teeth like Boka. It prevents any cavities, infact I got a cavity when I switched to Boka. It has the 10% nano-hydroxyapatite needed in it. It is a good flavor as well! I haven’t had any oral issues when using this toothpaste. It is super effective at cleaning my teeth and it is a good price as well! I like this brand a lot and plan on sticking to it :)

Taste like vanilla-ish when you first put it in your mouth. As you brush it starts to get a not so great taste. Definitely works great but I can’t handle the taste personally Update: After more use, the taste has grown on me and isn’t overpowering. Makes my teeth feel super clean. I ended up buying another tube

I wish I would have known about this toothpaste earlier in life. I recently started researching toothpaste alternatives because my gums were hurting in multiple spots and I was starting to get tooth pains in the middle of one of my back teeth. I started brushing with Elims 3 days ago and all 3 spots where my gums hurt have magically healed. I have not felt any pain in the tooth where I had pain previously. Gaps in my gums are starting to fill in. Generally speaking, my teeth health overall has increased a ton in just 3 days of brushing at 3x a day. I love the taste. Very natural sweet taste with a small subtle hint of mint. Very likeable taste when compared to other brand toothpaste that is overly minty and tastes of chemicals. Previously I was using Crest 3D white. I was brushing just as frequent 2-3x daily. My gum pain and tooth pain just kept increasing. I was also using alcohol free mouthwash and flossing 3x a day.

Update 11/13 I’ve been using this toothpaste for a few weeks now and I’ll say the flavor has grown on me. I still don’t find it so tasty but it’s not as bad as I originally thought. Can’t speak to the effectiveness other than general cleaning but am crossing my fingers that a couple places we are watching will not get worse! Original I’ve been using Boka, which I love, but thought I’d try something else to see if it is any better. I was a little unsure of the lavender flavor because I also use essential oils and lavender oil doesn’t smell good like lavender fragrance, and tastes about as bad. Well ... I was right to be hesitant. While the taste is not overpowering, I definitely wouldn’t call it good. It might not be as bad if the other flavors were slightly stronger and the lavender was left in the background. I do like the healing properties of lavender and hope it has a positive effect on my mouth so I overlook the taste for that reason. As far as the paste itself ... it’s fairly runny compared to any other tooth paste I’ve ever used, natural or otherwise. It does suds up well and gives me that typical toothpaste feeling while brushing. It makes me feel like it’s getting in between my teeth well where my tooth brush might not reach. I can’t speak to effectiveness yet as I’ve just started using it, but I’m hoping to be able to put off, if not eliminate the need for a filling and hopefully prevent new cavities in the future. I was born with a mouth full of bad teeth so just trying to do what I can to avoid more dental work!

I've tried several nano-hydroxyapatite toothpastes and I still like the taste of this one best. Ollies is good but the mint is a bit strong for me as I am sensitive to strong mint. Same with some of the other nano-hydroxyapatite pastes. This Elims is a bit pricier but to me the taste is better and I like the feel of it. I am not crazy about the tube though. It's excessively difficult to remove the inner seal. And it's hard to get it all out of the tube. Once you can't squeeze anymore, there is still A LOT inside. So once I can't squeeze anymore out; I use scissors to cut off the bottom end. Them I dip my toothbrush in and get many more days of use. Just use a rubber band or snack clip to close it up between using. But for this price, you'd think you wouldn't have to do that. But for this price, you do. My budget & inflation though will determine if I can keep choosing a toothpaste based on taste. I know You get it.

This one actually foams up nicely. The foam feels fine, dense, and soft. The lavender vanilla mint tastes pretty good, leaves a mild mint aftertaste. It takes way less toothpaste than I expected, about the size of a fat pea. The first time I used a normal amount, about 3/4s of an inch, and it was a little too much. Do be careful when you open the cap, because it is pretty runny and will spill if you don't keep the tube upright until you're ready to put it on the toothbrush. Like all hydroxyapatite toothpaste, if you don't rinse after brushing and don't eat or drink for about 30 mins, your teeth feel luxuriously smooth afterwards. I appreciate that this one has exactly 10% nano-hydroxyapatite as well, because that is the size of the molecule and concentration that was found most effective in major studies. 10/10, this brand will replace the brand I had been using.
