Cavities are prevented / reversed with a new toothpaste formulation that outperforms conventional fluoride without toxicity, a new study confirms.

Your tooth enamel are essentially crystals.
These repeating patterns of different minerals and ions.
When the mouth is acidic, these structures dissolve and the enamel degrades, forming cavities.
These crystals are composed of hydroxyapatite units.
What fluoride does is replaces the hydroxide with fluoride.
So you're replacing your body's natural mineral structure with an artificial mineral structure.

A huge drawback of this, besides the hormonal, inflammatory and brain toxicity of fluoride on the rest of your body, is dental fluorosis.
About 70% of people in the US have this, it is what happens when you replace your natural enamel with fluoride.
You get these yellow / white spots on your teeth.

However, you can simply brush your teeth with the mineral crystal they are normally composed of.
That's what this recent review looked at - the use of hydroxyapatite toothpastes.
When compared to fluoride toothpastes, we see no difference in the detection of cavities.
None.

Fluoride advocates might point out that it also has some antimicrobial properties that help in plaque removal.
But again, when comparing it to hydroxyapatite toothpaste, there is no difference in plaque control (PCR).

Hydroxyapatite toothpastes are also good for gingivitis (gum inflammation).
Once again, at worst equal to standard fluoride toothpaste, with no toxicity or fluorosis risk.

Other studies analyzed demonstrate hydroxyapatite toothpastes can actually OUTPERFORM fluoride.
Here we see that people using it (A) had greater decreases in cavity lesion area in comparison to those using fluoride.

I don't have a recommended product for this, but there are several nano hydroxyapatite toothpastes out there for relatively cheap.
Combining it with baking soda + coconut oil is a great way to keep dental health pristine.
