> 24 hourMy daughter sent me my first tube. It lasts a long time. I use it on a dry tooth brush and do not rinse my mouth after using as directed. I love it and the Orange Cream flavor too.

> 24 hourWonderful look, taste and feeling natural toothpaste ! Loved how clean it made my teeth feel after one brushing. Hope it lives up to marketing long term and helps restore healthy teeth and gums .. no obnoxious over the top flavor.. yet very pleasant taste, consistency, texture and visual appeal.

> 24 hourI have texture sensitivities so when I first tried this I was nervous about the change in texture but I’ve grown to prefer this brand over the brand name toothpastes I used to use. Works very well and is very sensory friendly in my opinion if that’s important to you.

> 24 hourHave been using Boca for awhile but this is the first time to review it. What I like about Boca first is that its fluoride free. Many dont know that this is considered a chemical, something I try to avoid. Cant speak for the remineralizing but perhaps it protects my teeth more than realized. It is pleasant tasting leaving my teeth and mouth feeling fresh and clean. Use it with an electric toothbrush that only requires a dab and tube lasts much longer than most toothpastes Ive used in the past so price wise its worth it. It also sits upright on the counter in a solid tube making it convenient and without much of a mess, and you dont have to squeeze and fold the tube to get more toothpaste out of it. Works well for me.

> 24 hourMyself and my 3 kids ranging from 1 to 6 all love this toothpaste! I kind of miss that minty after taste but, it leaves my mouth still feeling fresh. I love that my kids and I can all use the same tube and that I can brush my teeth before breakfast and not have the food taste weird.

> 24 hourUpdate: 06/23/2023 I’m not that much of a fan of the Cinnamint. I think I was lead on to think it would taste like cinnamon. It tastes like cloves. Nothing is wrong with cloves, but it was not what I expected going by the flavor’s name. I use these toothpastes exclusively. Update: 05/15/2023. Ive been using mainly Boka toothpaste since Oct of last year. I went through a stage of lowering my sugar intake and everything started tasting too sweet. You know how when you eat a perfectly ripe apple and it will taste sweet. Then you eat an apple pie and its even sweeter. If you go back and take another bite of the apple, it wont taste as sweet anymore. Well, I got rid of all the sweets and the Coco Ginger and Lemon Lavender became way too sweet for me. For a short stint, I went back to Sensodyne because I had it at home already. Then I eventually switched back to the Boka and tried the Ela Mint. Before making the switch back to Boka, I tried the Elims toothpaste. It wasnt sweet. Unfortunately, it taste like mild soap and doesnt clean very well. Ela Mint will be a great introduction to anyone just starting hydroxyapatite toothpaste. It tastes pretty much like a regular mint flavor, and I think it cleans the best out of the 3 flavors Ive tried. My teeth just feel smoother. It was also nice to not have an overly sweet toothpaste. The Ela Mint toothpaste tube that shipped came in perfect unlike the other two flavor. It was not covered in scuff marks nor looked like it was trampled over by an elephant. Im not sure why this flavor is treated so different. Also, I havent had a cavity in years since I found out the wonders of floss. Im going to exclude the small one that started when I went through chemo at the start of the pandemic. So roughly the 6 months (Im minusing the Sensodyne time)of using this toothpaste, I havent had any cavities nor gingivitis at my cleanings. I cant say that my teeth look whiter though. I am a coffee drinker. I use to smoke spliffs and drink coffee and I felt my teeth look whiter back then. In fact, people would comment on how white my teeth looked. However, I use to oil pull and just brush with a slurry of baking soda. Ill update again, once I quit coffee to see if this type of toothpaste makes a difference. Older Review Ok, we all know what Boka toothpaste is suppose to do. It’s suppose to help remineralize the teeth with nano-hydroxyapatite, and then there are a whole heap of benefits that come with that. Since no one is going to be able to see the benefits right away, let’s talk about things I can evaluate in the here and now. First, let’s talk about the taste. It actually tastes like sweet coconut oil and ginger. It has a health food and green living vibe to its flavor. It’s not bad, but I was surprised it seemed kind of herbally. The flavor is mild and enjoyable. My mouth tasted nice after spitting it out. I don’t think it messes with the flavor of food right afterwards. Second, the paste turns to liquid in the mouth. There is no foam. I needed more than a pea size to feel like I adequately covered all of my teeth with it. Since I switched my toothbrush and floss, my teeth typically feel really clean after brushing. My teeth continued to feel clean after using this one. It’s cleaning capabilities are still the same as others. For those worried about the abrasive used in this toothpaste, ask for the RDA ranking of this paste. Even Sensodyne Pronamel uses hydrated silica and it’s rda rating is below 40 for all but the whitening ones. Lastly, this felt good in the mouth. There was no burning. My tongue also didn’t feel numb afterwards. Overall, it’s a decent toothpaste at face value. It is very crunchy-granola in its brand values, as well as its flavor. What it purports to do makes it seem great, but it’s too early to see those benefits. I’d just have to take their word for it. Edit: I recently purchased the Lemon Lavender flavor off of Target because they are out of stock on the Boka website. If you thought the tubes off of Amazon looked streaked up and dirty, the Target ones have them beat. Oh my, my tube looks beat up. This is a sweet and soft flavor that dissipates to the flavor of nothing. It reminds me of lemon short bread cookies with a hint of lavender, but very soft. Its definitely not as sweet and intense like Tanners Tasty Paste in Vanilla Bling, but it still tastes good. I can see children liking the Lemon Lavender flavor much more than the Coco Ginger.

> 24 hourI bought 6 different sensitivity-fighting toothpastes, including top brands like Sensodyne, and this is the best. Additionally, it tastes great and leaves my mouth feeling fresh. No weird squeaky clean feeling that competing products cause.
