Himalaya Fluoride Free, Botanique Whitening+Nano Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste, Mint Flavor-Support Remineralization and Restore Enamel to Strengthen Teeth, for Sensitive Teeth, 4 oz (Pack of 4)

A mild tasting toothpaste that is very effective at both gently cleansing and gradually filling in cracks and fractures. I had a chip off of one canine that was actually starting to be painful. I have every motivation not to seek dental treatment because of special needs that require I be under general anesthesia in a hospital operating room as a high risk surgical patient. The last time I had dental work, I sprang a rare reaction, they could not use the one reversal agent every OR has to have on hand for this rare reaction. The board-certified Harvard-trained anesthesiologist had to use other means to bring me through. I no longer can travel the thousands of miles to this one specific hospital that knows my case, which is also why I was looking for some way to fill this chipped tooth on my own. I have been treating this tooth for several months by brushing everywhere but this tooth and holding the paste in the mouth for a time before rinsing out well. I have, concurrently, been using the "Shine" powder, not to clean but as a crevice filler because it strikes me as possibly too abrasive. "Shine," however, is grittier, has some interesting animal-based ingredients, and lacks the glycerin that is present in the Himalayan formula, meaning: adherence ought to be more effective without the oil slick. The non-nano "Shine" seemed to be the most helpful in the beginning of my self treatment. However as I gradually built up a protective initial layer on the tooth, this smoother Himalaya formula with the nano hydroxyapatite worked much better as a "finisher" to consolidate and maintain the tooth coating I had slowly built up. I am not claiming a permanent solution, nor am I claiming that it is possible to achieve what I have without diligence and care and real time. There is no substitute for seeing the dentist if you are in trouble. I am only reporting that this toothpaste works IF you do your twice daily maintenance work and eat carefully around a tooth that is slowly mending. The pain is now gone, the tooth surface is smooth. It feels like any other tooth in my head. Yes, this toothpaste is pricey but a tiny amount on a wetted toothbrush goes a long, long way and generates lots of foam. It does not leave a gummy residue on the rest of one's teeth like the "Shine" powder does. The taste is a mild, very smooth mint, not at all overwhelming. Excellent product.

Great tooth paste first time trying this. The flavor is great. Brushing your teeth with this toothpaste your teeth feel so smooth and I can also tell a difference in how clean my teeth are after daily use

Makes my teeth white. Feels good, tastes good. All around great product. Thank you.

Seems to clean my teeth well. It seemed to help with teeth sensitivity a little bit. I don't really like the taste though.

I am fluoride free. It’s 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 there’s a more superior solution: nano hydroxyapatite for our teeth remineralization needs. It’s 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 isn’t at the optimal levels, it’s 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 I’ve restored the whiteness back with various at home products, it’s 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 dentist’s 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, sigh… such a western medicine move). When I bought this for the first time I was immediately pleased - there’s NO scary flavor (if you’ve ever tried *natural* toothpastes, especially ones of India, You KNOW!). There’s 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, I’m 100% without sensitivity but even better, my teeth my are less clear. This truly restores enamel. But, here’s 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 I’m specifically buying it for. #2 - the toothpaste color is… lightish yellow. Think a healthy “mucus yellow” - I’m so sorry for the that description, but when I spit up bits of toothpaste in my sink, it looks like boogers. That’s an issue when I’m busy whitening my teeth at home & I’m 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 I’m extremely paranoid that I’m pushing YELLOW toothpaste into my porous teeth, and I don’t 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 I’ve spent a lot fixing my teeth bleaching then restaining fiasco, so I’m not taking any chances. While I don’t think it’s yellowing my teeth at all, because of the color, I’ll never think it’s whitening them. But don’t 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.

MY FAVORITE fluoride free toothpaste. I still get that slight minty fresh taste and has effectively whitened my teeth as people have noticed and complimented me on.

This is a fine toothpaste. The flavor is on the strong side. I rotate several brands of this nature so it is hard to tell whether this one is making a difference. I do think it is a good value because it lasts a long time. My son and grandson like it.

Gave 3 starts as an act of goodwill . The toothpaste does not specify the type or percentage of active ingredients it contains. For a beneficial effect, the concentration of nano-hydroxyapatite should be 10% or higher. Based on indirect information, this product appears to contain only about 4.2%. The manufacturer did not respond to inquiries regarding the active ingredient content, which is concerning. Additionally, the toothpaste has an unusual taste that is definitely not mint.

Clean and fresh taste. Only need a pea size.

My rashes from toothpaste are finally gone. Ive noticed a difference in my teeth too. Thankyou. Slowly healing from the toxins all around.

Insane for sensitive teeth. I’ve tried so many things for sensitive teeth and nothing except this has ever worked. And I’ve only been using it for a few days. For years I’ve gotten extreme tooth pain on basically every tooth, especially when eating sugary foods like chocolate. The dentist never gave helpful recommendations. Now I can eat chocolate and have it coat every tooth with no pain at all! The toothpaste has a pleasant taste and is the only thing that has ever helped me. I will be recommending this to everyone I know. If you have sensitive teeth or just looking for a pleasant alternative to fluoride toothpaste, I would highly recommend this.

Seems to work well enough. It's probably the worst tasting toothpaste I've ever used though if I'm being honest lol. It tastes like petroleum or cheap plastic. Maybe from the tube being used? No idea. I probably won't buy it again however.

I’ve been using the Himalaya Botanique Whitening + Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste and overall I’ve had a positive experience with it. The taste is really pleasant compared to many other toothpastes, which makes brushing more enjoyable. It has a mild, fresh flavour rather than anything too strong or overpowering. After brushing, my teeth feel clean and smooth, and my mouth feels fresh for a good amount of time afterward. I’ve also noticed a slight difference in brightness over time, although it’s not a dramatic whitening change. What I do appreciate most is how my teeth feel—clean and strong without any sensitivity or harshness. Overall, it’s a good everyday toothpaste that feels gentle but effective.
