With no harsh chemicals, no fluoride, and featuring the highest-quality nano-Hydroxyapatite on the market, Fygg was designed to promote a healthy oral microbiome while protecting teeth. Other toothpastes include unnecessary and potentially harmful ingredients like foaming agents, preservatives, and other powerful chemicals. Fygg contains only what is required to remineralize teeth and support the oral microbiome, which toothpastes should have been engineered to do from the beginning.
An oral microbiome-supportive remineralizing toothpaste without surfactants, emulsifiers, fluoride, and essential oils. Simple, effective, and safe — this is what makes Fygg unique.Â
We are a “less is more” brand. Founded by two whole-body, functional dentists who have scrutinized the industry, the research, and the efficacy of the competition for years, our formulations have been labors of love and made with genuine passion for creating a better and safer product. We were able to successfully remove the unnecessary ingredients that the industry has long included in their toothpastes solely for cheaper and more efficient methods of mixing large batches of toothpaste. Removing these ingredients allows us to manufacture a paste that tastes good, feels good, actually works and does not cause harm. Nourishing the oral microbiome and remineralizing teeth: what toothpaste should have been engineered to do from the very beginning.
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a naturally occurring mineral that constitutes approximately 97% of tooth enamel and 60% of bone structure. Your body contains significant amounts of HA, which is also present in your saliva. This mineral has sparked a transformation in dental hygiene, initially gaining popularity in Japan, a country often ahead in adopting innovative health practices, and now is increasingly favored in Europe for its proven safety and efficacy. Research indicates that HA might be as effective, if not more so, than fluoride in restoring tooth enamel. Curious about the science behind it? Explore the research on our Science page below!
At Fygg, we use the highest quality nano-Hydroxyapatite (nano-HAp) available globally in our toothpaste, which has been deemed safe for consumer goods by the European Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) for its rigorous standards. Our nano-HAp undergoes stringent quality control measures, prioritizing your safety with thorough testing and adherence to global guidelines. For more detailed information on our ingredient safety and efficacy, explore our Science page below.
Fygg uses a 15.5% nano-hydroxyapatite made by Fluidinova in Europe called NanoXIM. We add 20% of this 15.5% resulting in 3.1% per toothpaste tube. The percentage of nano-HAp to use depends on the source of nano-HAp. In general, higher quality of nano-HAp, the higher quality the particles, and less you need to use for it to be efficacious. For the source that we use - nanoXIM - case studies show 1-3% of nanoXIM is optimal for safety, sensitivity, remineralization, and whitening.
The varnish has nearly 3x the amount of hydroxyapatite in it, which supports effective cavity arrest and reversal in a short amount of time. Fygg varnish contains 57.3% nanoXIM CarePaste, a water-based solution with 15.5% nano-HAp, bringing the active nano-HAp concentration to 8.6%.Â
The short answer: no! Here is a blog from our founding team if you're interested to learn more.
Excessive fluoride is toxic, especially to developing brains, and isn't necessary for oral health. It can lead to fluorosis, and weakening bones and teeth, and studies link it to reduced IQ and neurocognitive issues in children. Given these risks, and with hydroxyapatite proving equally or more effective for dental health, the choice seems clear for safer oral care options.
Xylitol is a natural sugar alcohol and acts as a prebiotic. It is found in plants and naturally in the human body, and is used in our toothpaste for its proven benefits in supporting oral health by reducing cavity-causing bacteria while also offering a pleasant taste. Though excessive intake (as might be seen in consuming copious baked goods with xylitol) might affect gut health, the amounts in toothpaste are negligible and are very beneficial for dental care, making it a widely accepted ingredient for cavity prevention and oral microbiome optimization.
Our production site includes items made with shea nut butter, macadamia nut oil, sunflower oil, and coconut oil. Nonetheless, we implement stringent allergy segregation procedures to avoid cross-contamination. Rest assured, our products are not manufactured in facilities handling peanuts, peanut derivatives, eggs, dairy, or flax. Additionally, all our offerings are vegan and gluten-free.

You only need a small rice-sized amount of toothpaste for efficacy in kids, and a pea-sized amount for efficacy adults. The magic of the toothpaste is with it's ability to "super-charge" your saliva, so just a thin coating on your teeth is sufficient. You can spit, but DO NOT RINSE after more maximum efficacy!
Not with our super-clean, oral microbiome supportive formulation! Do not rinse, just spit it out. This takes a little getting used to, but trust us when we say you will learn to love this effective habit. The magic of hydroxyapatite will work best if left on the teeth and in your saliva, so please do not rinse all that goodness down the drain!
PRO TIP: Place a small smear of the toothpaste on your floss and floss it between your teeth, especially if you are told you have any smaller (incipient) cavities in between your teeth. And again, do not rinse!
Yes! All Fygg flavors are effective for all ages. The only differences are the flavors.
We do encourage working on teaching your child to be able to spit out, but know how tricky this can be for very young children, so simply use a small smear of toothpaste. This is enough to be efficacious until spitting is learned!
Yes! We highly suggest it for patients with orthodontic appliances or dental restorations, as it can strengthen enamel, whiten teeth, and reduce sensitivity.
Fygg toothpaste is wonderful for sensitive teeth! Hydroxyapatite has been shown to help with not only remineralization, but also sensitivity in the research.
Fygg has an RDA of 34.3 and pH of 6.5, as determined through third-party testing.
Yes, all Fygg products and packaging are BPA, PFAS, and Phthalate-free.
Yes! Fygg tubes are composed of LDPE plastic (recycle code 4) and the caps are made from PP (polypropylene, recycle code 5). Just cut your tubes in half, rinse, and toss in the recycling bin! ♻️
There is no solid science to support this necessarily. We feel the logical order for oral hygiene is to tongue scrape (once a day), floss (once a day), and then brush (twice a day). We also love adding in an oral probiotic at the end of your routine to add additional beneficial bacteria into the mouth. But beggars can’t be choosers, so please follow whatever order enables you to get the job done!
We are proud to say that our toothpaste and varnish are made right here in the United States!
No. Fygg toothpaste contains a small amount of xylitol, which can be toxic to dogs. Dogs’ metabolism and lack of appropriate enzymes prevents them from properly digesting xylitol. We use xylitol for flavor and microbiome benefits, but it is not safe to use with pets. If your pet happens to find their way into your toothpaste, contact your Vet or Pet Poison Control immediately (1-800-213-6680).
The founders are both dentists, so absolutely! Beyond Dr. B and Dr. Staci, dentists world-wide are embracing hydroxyapatite-based toothpastes and suggesting it to patients as a first line of defense for remineralization and to help with sensitivity.

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. For more details on how to apply, click 'Instructions' here!
Choosing Fygg nano-HAp varnish over a traditional fluoride varnish is preferred by many providers and patients due to its science-backed properties, clean ingredients, and microbiome support, all while still maintaining comparable efficacy in terms of remineralization, desensitization, and whitening.
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.
For dentists seeking to provide the safest, most effective, biomimetic, and oral microbiome-supportive dental care to patients of all ages, Fygg nano-HAp varnish can be a beneficial addition to your dental practice, giving patients options for optimal oral health.
Yes! The appropriate concentrations and types of nano-Hydroxyapatite in Fygg varnish can be as effective in supporting remineralization, reducing tooth demineralization, and helping with sensitivity as fluoride varnishes. Several studies have shown that nano-Hydroxyapatite has similar or better efficacy as fluoride in remineralizing early carious lesions, preventing dental caries formation, and helping with sensitivity.
Check our our Varnish Page for more resources and research links.
With prebiotic fiber and L-Arginine, Fygg nano-Hydroxyapatite actively nourishes the oral microbiome, not destroying it as many other products do. The prebiotic fiber in the formula will feed and nourish the beneficial bacteria in the mouth. L-arginine has shown to elevate dental plaque pH, inhibit biofilm formation, and destabilize biofilm structure.
Also, with the elimination of unnecessary oral microbiome disruptors, emulsifiers, surfactants, artificial flavors and sweeteners, hexanes and propylene glycol derivatives, and excessive essential oils, Fygg supports commensal and beneficial bacteria, allowing them to thrive!Â
Check our our Varnish Page for more resources and research links.
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.

While Fygg does not have the ADA seal of approval because the ADA will not approve anything without fluoride in it, there is some good news on the horizon—the ADA launched a new CDA code in January 2024 for hydroxyapatite varnishes, which makes us feel hopeful that the ADA will start approving hydroxyapatite products soon.
The truth is, many oral care ingredients, including fluoride (yes, fluoride!), lack ADA and FDA approval for certain uses, and we use them off-label. This doesn’t mean fluoride or hydroxyapatite don’t work—instead, it highlights the evolving landscape of oral health research and regulation.
The FDA's stance on off-label use underscores the importance of informed decision-making and responsible usage by healthcare professionals. Practitioners are encouraged to rely on scientific rationale and medical evidence when utilizing products for purposes beyond their approved labeling. FDA approval is not required to use fluoride varnish off-label. (USFDA, 1998, USP DI, 2006) In summary, the absence of FDA approval for hydroxyapatite doesn't diminish its effectiveness or safety. Instead, it underscores the need for a nuanced understanding of oral care ingredients and their applications.
