Hydroxyapatite for Remineralizing Teeth - Has it Been Proven Safe?
Hydroxyapatite for remineralizing teeth — has it been proven safe? [Updated June 2023]

There is a surge of new toothpastes and toothpowders on the market that promote the use of Hydroxyapatite (HAP) or Nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAP) as the latest and greatest remineralizer and enamelizer. But what is it? And is it safe?

Bottom Line: Synthetic nano hydroxyapatite (nHAP) has not been proven safe. Natural HAP is safe. Neither form has been proven to work better than other natural sources, like clay.

What is "Living Clay”?
Living clay is a very unique type of clay associated with biological life. It possesses some amazing qualities including the ability to undergo chemical changes, both absorb and adsorb (release) substances, and interact with its surrounding environment. Plus it contains a range of micronutrients and micro-organisms. Living clay has been linked to the origin and evolution of life, as it retains information, exhibits self-organization, and interacts with organic molecules.

Enjoying the oil pulling

I've really enjoyed the oil pulling - the flavor and ingredients are great. I feel like it's helping me to improve my overall mouth health. I'll continue to use it.

Mineral Toothpowder

I've been using Akamai's Mineral Toothpowder for several years and I love it. It leaves my teeth and mouth feeling clean and has none of the toxic chemicals or artificial sweeteners of commercial toothpastes. I can't recommend it enough and happily pass out samples to friends and family.

It is DIFFERENT

If you like your “paste” it’s a possibility you won’t like the powder. It takes a minute to adjust to the difference when brushing. The end flavor is nice, lite mint, but brushing is chalky and like clay. All in all, I’m going for the switch because I want healthy hygiene!
I’ve ordered my refill and a second refill. The floss is very nice! Thick, effective, and leaves a nice minty after taste

Love the toothpaste

I was making my own toothpaste powder and while it worked ok, I was not crazy about the taste of it. Too salty. I found your company and decided to give it a try. I love it!!! Taste is great, thankfully with no salty grit. My teeth and gums are feeling so much better. I no longer have any bleeding gums and I love that this product is organic with no nasty fillers. Thanks for making such a great product.

Mineral tooth powder

This product is amazing. I was unsure about using it or the benefits but wow was I wrong. Everything they claim has been true. I also noticed that I don’t have the normal bad breath when I wake up in the morning is a a plus for me. Truely an amazing product. Would definitely recommend to everyone trying to steer from store tooth paste.

The true clean feel

My first brush was great and the rest is history, brushing has never felt better. Teeth feel clean and smooth plus no complaints with gums or sensitivity. The taste is much better when you compare it to poison.

Perfect All in One!

This is really a great 3 in 1 bar. It washes my long hair well and works great as soap and shaving cream. My whole family enjoys the soft scent that it has, even though it is free of fake fragrances and chemicals. I love how pure it is! I'm not sure that you would find anything else out there that is quite as safe for your skin and covers all these jobs.

This is amazing toothpowder. I was skeptical but now I’m hooked. I’ve been oil pulling and using this toothpowder for months. My teeth are clean and white and not sensitive anymore. Great product!

Excellent Product

I was a tad skeptical but my continued health journey forced me to give the Mineral toothpaste a try. I absolutely love how clean my mouth feels after brushing.

Toothpaste powder

I am so happy with my toothpaste powder. My teeth feel like I just had my gum-line cleaned at the dentist after use. The powder is so fine that it polishes my teeth unlike any other powder/tablets or toothpaste that I ‘ve ever used. Definitely worth trying!

Mineral tooth powder is amazing!

I was making my own toothpaste, and I wasn't crazy about it. My SIL told me how much she loves this mineral powder, so I tried it. I love it so much that sometimes I brush my teeth 5 times a day. My teeth feel so clean and fresh, and there's an earthiness about the powder that I love. I highly recommend this!
