Fygg nano-HAp varnish is as effective as a fluoride varnish in terms of remineralization and desensitization. Due to its science-backed properties, clean ingredients, and microbiome support, it is preferred by many providers and patients.
Fygg nano-HAp uses 15.5% nanoXIM at 57.34% concentration (8.6% nano-HAP), using what is currently the only form of nano-Hydroxyapatite (nanoXIM.CarePaste manufactured by Fluidinova) currently approved by the SCCS in Europe for safety and efficacy.
Fygg varnish uses 15.5% nano-hydroxyapatite made by Fluidinova in Europe called NanoXIM, and when the batch is placed into our tubes, 8.6% is the final mix. The percentage of nano-HAp to use depends on the source of nano-HAp. The higher the quality of nano-HAp, the higher quality the particles, and less you need to use for it to be efficacious.
Yes, Fygg nano-Hydroxyapatite varnish can promote remineralization, prevent tooth demineralization and help with sensitivity in people of all ages. Please touch base with your dental team on whether it could be a good fit for you.
Fygg Varnish can be brushed with daily, either as a replacement for your regular toothpaste until symptoms resolve, OR mixed into your routine every few days or so. Another way to use Fygg Professional Varnish is in trays for longer contact time and faster results. You can either add a small strip or dots in trays. Spot apply to areas of concern with a cotton swab or micro brush or on floss. Here are the details on how to apply.
Because the varnish has about 3x the hydroxyapatite as the toothpaste, it can be more quickly effective at addressing the below issues. However, both products can still be useful in addressing the above concerns. I would think of the varnish as being particularly valuable when having a more acute issue of sensitivity or early stage cavity need and the toothpaste as more of a long-term oral microbiome - and therefore tooth health - supportive tool.
Fygg Professional Varnish can be used for the following issues:
✔️Sensitivity
✔️Remineralizing and desensitizing areas of gum recession
✔️Demineralization
✔️Hypoplastic teeth
✔️Prevention while in orthodontic treatment
Those with demineralization, incipient or early decay (particularly smooth surface or root caries), orthodontic appliances and hardware, orthodontic white spots lesions, areas of chronic tooth sensitivity, hypoplastic enamel, or those wanting an occasional ""boost' for prevention can benefit from at-home use applied directly to the areas of concern or in custom trays. Here are the details on how to apply.
On January 1st, 2024 a new CDT Code launched (D2991) which is the application of hydroxyapatite regenerative medicament per tooth. Coverage may vary depending on your specific insurance plan.
We recommend contacting your insurance provider to encourage coverage. Similar to silver diamine fluoride, new procedures often take time to be adopted. If you need a templated letter, Fygg has one available. Please email darcy@fygg.com. We’re working diligently to get hydroxyapatite varnish covered in all dental offices and under all insurance plans soon.

Some brands do not test for heavy metals and many do not publicly share their results. At Fygg, we believe in transparency—we want you to feel confident in the safety of what you and your family use daily.
