Nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) is a form of hydroxyapatite, a mineral naturally found in tooth enamel and bones. It's used in dentistry, particularly in toothpaste, due to its small particle size, which allows it to penetrate and integrate with enamel.

- Remineralizes and strengthens tooth enamel
- Reduces tooth sensitivity
- Prevents cavities and slows decay progression

- May be more effective than fluoride for initial enamel lesions
