What is Hydroxyapatite?
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a natural mineral that makes up 97% of your tooth enamel and 60% of your bones. You have pounds of this stuff in your body and it's floating around in your mouth as you read this. A revolution in oral care, HA has become standard in Japan (they get all the good stuff first!), and is increasingly being used in Europe due to its safety and effectiveness. There is research that shows it is as good or better at remineralizing your teeth than fluoride. Don't believe us? Check out the studies on our ingredients page!
What makes RiseWell toothpastes different than other natural toothpastes?
Most natural toothpastes don't include any ingredients that remineralize your enamel the way that fluoride does in traditional toothpaste. We use all natural hydroxyapatite which has been shown in studies to remineralize your enamel as well as, or even better than, fluoride!
Is RiseWell recommended by dentists?
Yes. In fact, we have built a Scientific Council comprised of some of the leading Dentists and Doctors in the United States. They are here to help us make sure we have the best and most scientifically-backed products possible, and remain on the leading edge of dental products.
Does RiseWell help whiten teeth?
Yes. hydroxyapatite has natural whitening properties. Our natural toothpaste whitens without the use of harsh peroxides that strip enamel and cause sensitivity!
