Born of years of medical research; delivering just what mother nature intended. NovaMin can reverse the negative effects of time and age on our teeth.
As we get older, our teeth become more sensitive, more decayed and more stained. NovaMin offers a new millennium solution to these problems.
The origins of NovaMin go back to a chance encounter between a materials scientist and an Army Colonel and their conversation about helping to repair the shattered bones of soldiers who were battle wounded. That conversation led to a revolutionary bone repair material. After over a million patients benefited from that creation, researchers found a way to adapt the same technology for renewing the vitality of teeth. Thus, NovaMin was born.
NovaMin is a compound made from elements which are naturally critical for bone and tooth mineralization: calcium, phosphorus, silica, and sodium. Delivered in their common forms, these elements have very limited value in tooth health. Delivered together, in their rare ionic form, however makes them into powerhouses of tooth renewal. This is the magic of NovaMin. Of course, NovaMin contains nothing toxic or exotic - just the elements that mother nature intended.
Each microscopic NovaMin particle serves as a delivery system for these ions. When the particle is exposed to water (from your saliva or tap water) it instantly reacts - releasing billions of mineral ions that become available to the natural remineralization process in your mouth. It is this natural process that is the ideal rebuilder of tooth mineral. These ions, along with naturally occurring ions in your saliva, combine to form hydroxyapatite crystals, the special form of hard and strong mineral in your teeth. No other man-made material is known to directly lead to the formation of these crystals in the body.
