Teeth contain apatite. That's what apatite has to do with your teeth
I know teeth contain a high proportion of fluorapatite (apatite group). Higher than bone. I'm not sure about calcite though...i'm still trying to answer that one.
Apatite is a calcium fluoride phosphate of variable composition, sometimes used in the manufacture of fertilizer.
the world is still wondering!!!!!scientists don't knowi just made that upi really don't knowi just asked that question!!! Save
The primary use of apatite is in the manufacture of fertilizer, being a source of phosphorus. Apatite also is used in the fluoridation of drinking water and to put protective coatings on metals to prevent rust.
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
They are almost as hard as rocks. The are considered a five hardness so that means about the same hardness as apatite. (a mineral)

Hydroxylapatite is formed naturally of calcium apatite in the human teeth and bones. It is used in the healthcare industry to replace or fill amputated bones.
Glass can scratch apatite but not feldspar.
It's about a 5 on moh's scale of hardness.
Apatite is a group of phosphate minerals. These minerals are made of hydroxylapatite.
The transparency of Apatite is clear, glassy, see through structure.
The colors of Apatite are green, yellow, blue, redish-brown, and purple.
