What are toothpaste tablets made of?
Most recent toothpaste tablets focus on more natural ingredients than mass-produced tube toothpaste.
First, they do not contain water like liquid toothpaste, meaning they do not need chemical preservatives or parabens that prevent the growth of microorganisms.
Some toothpaste tablets use more biocompatible alternatives to fluoride, such as nano-hydroxyapatite, also called nHA.
What is nano-hydroxyapatite?
Nano-hydroxyapatite is a synthetic version of the main component of enamel that helps with the remineralization of teeth called hydroxyapatite.
With nano-hydroxyapatite, the teeth restore from within as it becomes a mineral reinforcement by itself while reducing caries incidence.
Debates on whether nano-hydroxyapatite is better than fluoride have been going on for years, but each ingredient has its own pros and cons.
Nano hydroxyapatite toothpaste tablets also contain organic ingredients such as organic coconut oil, British peppermint oil, and licorice root, making them safe for kids and pregnant women.
According to studies conducted around the world including Sangi Co. LTD’s, since hydroxyapatite is an organic material that already exists within our bodies, it is a safer alternative to fluoride that causes dental fluorosis and can be toxic if ingested in large amounts.

What Are the Benefits of Toothpaste Tablets?
- Eco-friendly packaging - usually packed in reusable and refillable jars or tin containers, the toothpaste tabs packaging help lessen the plastic users consume.
