Boka Natural Toothpaste, Fluoride Free - Nano Hydroxyapatite for Remineralizing, Sensitive Teeth, & Whitening - Dentist Recommended for Adult & Kids Oral Care - Ela Mint, 4oz 1 Pack - Made in USA

I gag with mint toothpaste and this cleans the teeth great

Out of the blue last year, I developed an allergy to fluoride that sent me on a hunt for flouride-free toothpaste. I found Boka and really loved the scientific evidence of hydroxyapatite for cavity prevention as well as the fact that this brand didn’t use any artificial flavors or colors in their product. This is my 2nd time purchasing Boka toothpaste. My first purchase was the Ela Mint, which I give a 5/5. Unfortunately, the Coco Ginger flavor is really lacking in sudsing action compared to the mint. As far as whitening goes, I haven’t really noticed any changes, though that’s not something I’m really interested in nor pay attention to, as my teeth look fine IMO. It still does the job of cleaning my teeth and making my breath feel fresh, but I prefer Ela Mint.

Teeth yellowing? Rotting? Aging? Do you use whiteners all the time because you’re afraid of matcha stains, golden milk stains, Ube latte stains and wine stains? Are you a millennial watching your teeth age before your eyes, afraid of the consequences of age everywhere, including your teeth? Yup. You just won the teeth lottery. You found the toothpaste you’ve been crying out helplessly for. Dreams of losing all your teeth begone for Boka is here. Will edit review later to include long-term improvements but daaamn my teeth are whiter then the snow capped mountains of the Pacific Northwest.

Love this toothpaste but the cap is very hard to open.

Apparently, from using a whitening charcoal toothpaste, I did something that made my teeth hurt. I had discomfort for about a year before I found this toothpaste. It says it remineralizes your teeth and I guess thats what it did. After about 2 month, my teeth stopped hurting. Im really happy.

Been using sensodyne for years and had extreme sensitivity after finishing Invisalign and trying to whitening my teeth a little. Tried this for a couple weeks. But for money this didn’t seem to work as well as what I had been using. So went back to my old standby. To be fair sensodyne isn’t completely resolving as it usually does but didn’t see need in my case to pay extra if not much improved.

My daughter sent me my first tube. It lasts a long time. I use it on a dry tooth brush and do not rinse my mouth after using as directed. I love it and the Orange Cream flavor too.

So, the title of my review may seem odd for a toothpaste…but if you have limited manual dexterity due to injury (as I do) or arthritis, things like an easy to grip/twist cap and a softer plastic tube really do make a day to day difference! This was not my reason for buying Boka toothpaste (bought it for the remineralization and interesting flavors [i like Tom’s of Maine’s fennel toothpaste]), but I am really chuffed that the design of the tube has made my life easier. I used Hello Sensitivity before, and that cap was a nightmare - too hard to flip open, even for my husband. The Boka tube is more flexible, too, making it easier to squeeze out the last few blops of paste. Regarding flavor, I’ve only tried Lemon Lavender so far…it’s interesting, and tasty, but not “refreshing” if mint is more your style. It kind of reminds me of less-sweet cupcake frosting. Looking forward to trying Coco Ginger next. Overall, leaves my teeth feeling really clean.

I noticed a difference almost immediately in the way my teeth felt. My back teeth kinda suck and I have periodontitius. I could tell my teeth felt better almost immediately after using it one time. its hard to describe, but the pockets didnt feel as deep. The taste is good and its whitening my teeth. Compared to the Sensodyne I was using, this is way better. I plan to keep using it.

This is one of the few toothpastes that I’ve found that is free of mints & tea tree oils. Those are known antidotes to many homeopathic remedies.
