Creating the World’s Best Toothpaste: From Lab to Shelf
The ingredients behind Nura, and the process of creating the best toothpaste in the world.
Developed with world-leading researchers, Nura actively deposits fresh enamel-like particles to restore and nourish teeth, for a visibly brighter and stronger smile.
Developed by NASA**. Rebuilds, whitens and protects teeth deep below the surface, with the foundations of enamel.
Free from SLS sulfates, titanium dioxide, co-polymers, PAP acids or gimmicks.
In testing by the University of Milan, Nura delivered >2x better enamel repair than the world's #1 toothpaste brand.
Stops unnecessary enamel wear, protecting the natural strength and beauty of the tooth.
Invest in stronger, healthier teeth – for life.
Nura is your daily commitment to lifelong oral wellbeing.
Rather than using harsh abrasives to whiten teeth, Nura works in a fundamentally different way, depositing fresh, white Hydroxyapatite onto the enamel surface.
Traditional sensitivity toothpastes use Potassium Nitrate to 'numb' teeth at the nerve. Nura is different. It forms protective crystal structures inside dentin tubules and over the tooth surface
Brushing with Nura makes enamel and dentin harder and stronger, restoring teeth deep below the surface. *In testing by the University of Milan, Nura demonstrated 107% better enamel stiffness recovery compared to a leading fluoride toothpaste.
Our commitment to science ensures you get a toothpaste that truly works, without the confusion or unnecessary additives.
The four-step evening teethcare routine, designed to make your teeth love you back.
Spend 2-3 minutes, and apply only a gentle pressure, effectively removing plaque across your teeth.
Gently clean between teeth and around the gum-line.
Rinse with alcohol-free, gentle mouthwash.
Spend 1 minute only, massaging in a small amount of fresh toothpaste. Spit, don’t rinse, and let the toothpaste nourish your teeth overnight.

"As a dentist committed to delivering the best outcomes for my patients, I recommend Nura for both daily care and as essential aftercare following cosmetic and restorative treatments. The formulation contains high-grade active ingredients and robust scientific testing to support it - exactly the standard I look for when treating patients."

Working in collaboration with leading researchers at the University of Milan, Nura applies decades of research into a truly game-changing product. Free from unnecessary additives or pseudoscience, Nura delivers smart oral care with real results.
HAP is a naturally-occurring crystalline material, which makes up >97% of human enamel, and about 70% of dentin. In the 70s, NASA's quest to combat bone loss in space led to the creation of synthetic HAP, and soon after HAP's benefits in oral care were discovered.
Whilst HAP has been used in a small number of toothpastes previously, it is rarely included at both the quantity (>10%) and quality (nano + biomimetic micro) required to be highly effective.
Often referred to as the 'gold standard' of hydroxyapatite, nano-HAP's incredibly small particle size enables it to remineralise and repair teeth deep below the enamel surface.
It also enables the HAP to penetrate the tiny holes in teeth, known as tubules — the pathways that allow cold substances to cause sensitivity. which are the pathway for cold substances to cause sensitivity. By filling these tubules with rigid crystals, nano-HAP tackles sensitivity at its cause.
Whilst larger in particle size, the biomimetic micro-HAP used in Nura Mineralising Paste provides its own benefits.
Being 'biomimetic' means the chemical composition and structure more closely resembles the HAP in human enamel, containing additional elements such as Magnesium and Sodium. This makes the HAP more reactive, and as a result, more effectively remineralises the tooth surface.
Combining this highly reactive micro-HAP with nano-HAP creates a powerful, synergistic effect, enhancing teeth's strength, whiteness and integrity.
We meticulously select scientifically-proven active ingredients to restore, enhance and protect your teeth. Free from unnecessary additives or pseudoscience, Nura delivers better teethcare with real results.
Nura is suitable for anyone looking for best-in-class teethcare. Nura is designed for use by adults. Choosing Nura is in investment in one's long-term oral health, helping to keep teeth at their best, today and for a lifetime.
Yes. In fact Nura is the perfect after-care pairing for people who have chosen to undertake cosmetic treatments. The remineralising and anti-sensitivity effect of 12% HAP supports teeth following Peroxide-based whitening. It also helps protect dentin and enamel which may become exposed following veneer, composite or crown prep.
Whilst it can vary, most people will feel a significant reduction in sensitivity within 10 days of use.
In short, we’re not anti-fluoride — but we’re pro better science. Fluoride has been the gold standard in remineralisation for nearly a century, and it works. Saying this, Nura’s Mineralising Paste with 12% HAP has been shown in independent testing to outperform traditional 1450ppm fluoride toothpaste.
Most fluoride-free alternatives don’t come close — they’re often ineffective and offer little to no remineralising benefit. Nura is different. In studies conducted with the University of Milan, our formula showed more than twice the enamel repair of the leading fluoride toothpaste brand. Why not use both HAP and fluoride together? We tested this also, however HAP (hydroxyapatite) is highly reactive and naturally binds to fluoride when combined, actually reducing the overall product efficacy.
This is largely due to the high percentage (12%) of high-quality Hydroxyapatite in Nura's formulation. For reference, most other brands containing nano-HAP, include less than 2% active material. Furthermore, Nura is a specialised company, investing heavily in science and product development.
Yes, Nura is simply swapped in for one's regular toothpaste. It doesn't replace the need for other good components of oral hygiene, including flossing. For enhanced results, we suggest not to rinse with water post-brushing, and to add in an additional 1-minute, soft, manual brush to the evening routine.
Nura Mineralising Paste was developed and tested in conjunction with the University of Milan. Testing was conducted at the university's Oral Microbiology and Materials Laboratory on human enamel and dentin samples, with remineralisation performance benchmarked against a fluoride toothpaste from the world's leading brand.
Yes. Nura contains other active ingredients such as Xylitol and Zinc salts. These help reduce the levels of bad bacteria in the mouth which cause bad breath and gum issues.
Nura’s Mineralising Paste is powered by 12% HAP (Hydroxyapatite), the same mineral that makes up your enamel. It rebuilds and whitens teeth in a fundamentally better way than traditional fluoride toothpaste, as shown in independent testing by the University of Milan. Alongside HAP, it features gentle ingredients that clean effectively, support gum health, and leave your mouth feeling fresh after every brush.
