Meet The Team

We’re Steph and Christelle – A Homeopath and Naturopath team! Our journey began in our early 20s working side by side, and after pursuing our own paths in natural health, we’ve reunited to create natural oral care products that we’re truly proud of.

Steph – I live on a lifestyle block in Taranaki with my husband and three daughters. I’m a qualified Homeopath, and run my clinic from home. When I’m not working on Stella Naturals with Christelle, you’ll usually find me in the veggie garden chasing away my sheep, or at activities cheering on my kids.

Christelle – I'm based in Northland with my family, I’m a qualified Naturopath and Medical Herbalist. My background includes owning a natural health shop and a pet supplies store. These days, I’m focused on growing Stella Naturals with Steph, raising my daughter and spending time with my animals.

Thanks for being part of our journey!

What is non-nano hydroxyapatite?
















What is non-nano hydroxyapatite?

We use natural, bovine derived non-nano hydroxyapatite instead of the commonly used nano hydroxyapatite which is synthetic.

Non-nano hydroxyapatite is a form of hydroxyapatite with larger particle sizes compared to its nano-sized counterpart. Hydroxyapatite is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite, and it's a key component of bone and teeth.

Non-nano hydroxyapatite helps to remineralise enamel by providing the calcium and phosphate needed to rebuild tooth structure. It can repair early signs of tooth decay and fill in microscopic cracks and gaps. Non-nano hydroxyapatite's larger particle size is more akin to the natural size of minerals in bone and teeth. This can enhance the natural integration and remineralisation processes.

Biocompatibility and Safety: Non-nano hydroxyapatite is considered very biocompatible and safe for use in various applications such as dental care products and bone grafts. Its larger particle size is less likely to penetrate cell membranes or cause unintended cellular interactions. On the other hand, nano hydroxyapatite has smaller particles that can penetrate more deeply into tissues or cellular structures. This also raises concerns about potential long-term safety and toxicity. Non-nano hydroxyapatite's larger particles can help in the gradual release of calcium and phosphate ions, supporting remineralisation.

Non-nano hydroxyapatite is less likely to cause issues related to particle toxicity or unwanted cellular interactions, making it a safer choice for general use, especially in products that will be in regular contact with sensitive tissues like those in the mouth.


 

Demo Video - How To Use Tooth Putty

Scoop out a small amount of the putty and roll it into a ball, adjusting the size based on the number of teeth you are treating. Allow your body heat to soften the putty until it reaches a glue-like consistency. Apply the putty directly to the affected tooth or teeth, ensuring to dry off the tooth beforehand for better adhesion. For optimal results, it is recommended to apply the putty daily just before bedtime and then brush your teeth as usual in the morning.
