The Hydroxyapatite Gum Database: every brand's numbers (2026)

The Hydroxyapatite Gum Database · July 2026

Every brand's numbers, disclosed or not.

Eight brands sell hydroxyapatite chewing gum in the US. Only two publish how much hydroxyapatite is actually in a piece. This table collects what every brand states publicly, and marks what they do not, so you can compare on facts instead of adjectives. Every cell links to its source.

The short version: Minvelle discloses 5.7 mg of nano-hydroxyapatite per piece and Crait discloses 70 mg of non-nano hydroxyapatite per piece. Enamio, Underbrush, Dentagum, VanMan, Weldental and CaviChew do not publish an amount. Nano and non-nano milligrams are not directly comparable (see note 1).

Maintained by Minvelle, which sells one of the products below. That is exactly why every cell is sourced: check us hardest. Corrections: max@minvelle.com

Note 1, read before comparing milligrams: nano and non-nano hydroxyapatite are different materials in practice. Nano particles are far smaller, so a milligram of nano-HAp contains vastly more particles and surface area than a milligram of non-nano HAp, and the two interact with enamel differently. Crait's 70 mg non-nano and Minvelle's 5.7 mg nano are both honest disclosures of different things; neither number is "bigger" in any meaningful head-to-head sense.
Note 2: compiled July 2026 from each brand's own website, label imagery, or Amazon listing. "Not disclosed" means we could not find the figure published anywhere by the brand. Amazon-only facts we could not verify directly were left out rather than guessed. Prices were excluded because pack sizes and channels vary too much for a fair per-piece comparison; check each shop.

The evidence, honestly

What the science actually says about HAp gum

The one clinical trial that exists for hydroxyapatite gum

Porciani PF, Chazine M, Grandini S. "A clinical study of the efficacy of a new chewing gum containing calcium hydroxyapatite in reducing dentin hypersensitivity." Journal of Clinical Dentistry, 2014;25(2):32-36. PubMed 25122980.

Double-blind, 107 adults, a gum with 12 mg calcium hydroxyapatite per stick chewed as two sticks three times daily for two weeks. Result: statistically significant reduction in dentin hypersensitivity versus placebo on tactile, air-blast and cold-water tests.

What that means, and what it does not. This trial is the only peer-reviewed clinical study we could find on hydroxyapatite in gum form specifically. Its gum, dose and chewing protocol differ from every product in the table above, including ours. No brand in this database, Minvelle included, has run a clinical trial on its own finished product. The stronger evidence base for hydroxyapatite sits in toothpaste research, which is why every serious brand, again including ours, frames gum as a complement to brushing rather than a replacement. Any brand telling you its gum is "clinically proven" without linking a study of its own product is borrowing credibility it has not earned.

Questions, answered

About this database

How much hydroxyapatite is in each gum brand?
Only two of eight brands publish an amount: Minvelle states 5.7 mg of nano-hydroxyapatite per 1.9 g piece, and Crait states 70 mg of non-nano hydroxyapatite per piece. Enamio, Underbrush, Dentagum, VanMan, Weldental and CaviChew do not disclose how much hydroxyapatite their gum contains, as of July 2026.
Is more milligrams of hydroxyapatite better?
Not across particle types. Nano-hydroxyapatite particles are dramatically smaller than non-nano particles, so equal weights contain very different particle counts and surface areas, and they interact with enamel differently. Comparing a nano milligram figure with a non-nano milligram figure tells you almost nothing; compare within the same form, and look at whether a brand discloses at all.
Is hydroxyapatite gum clinically proven?
One peer-reviewed clinical trial exists on hydroxyapatite gum specifically (Porciani et al., 2014, on dentin hypersensitivity). No brand in this database has published a clinical trial of its own finished product. The larger evidence base for hydroxyapatite is in toothpaste research. Treat gum as a complement to brushing, not a replacement, and treat unsourced percentage claims with suspicion.
Who maintains this page, and why should I trust it?
Minvelle maintains it, and Minvelle sells one of the products listed, so read it with that in mind. Every cell links to the brand's own public source, "not disclosed" is marked instead of guessed, and our own row shows our gaps too. If any figure is wrong or a brand starts disclosing more, email max@minvelle.com and we will correct it.
