Splat Biocalcium – fluoride-free toothpaste that remineralizes and strengthens enamel.
Splat Biocalcium toothpaste contains the mineral hydroxyapatite (HAP) which remineralizes enamel and bioactive calcium which strengthens enamel.
The toothpaste is specifically developed for those who experience sore necks and need to build up thin enamel.
In addition, the toothpaste contains the natural enzyme papain from papaya which prevents plaque. The enzymes dissolve proteins in the plaque.
Splat’s own patented “Sp.White System” creates a protective film on the surface of the teeth that protects against caries.
The mineral hydroxyapatite (HAP) is found naturally in saliva and enamel is 98% made up of it. Splat Biocalcium toothpaste contains bioactive calcium from eggshells.
HAP helps increase the strength and resistance of enamel to acids that cause tooth decay. Calcium deficiency in the body can result in weakening of tooth tissue. The process is reversible, and our body can repair such damage under the right conditions.
As the enamel becomes thin, the amount and size of open dentinal tubules increases, leading to neural cell stimulation and pain. HAP acts as a “filling”, sealing surface microfissures and thus reducing hypersensitivity.
Taste: mild, fresh mint flavor.

For those of you wondering what hydroxyapatite actually is, it’s a form of calcium. Natural and harmless, in fact our bones are largely made of it. Read more here if you are interested:
Hydroxyapatite is a naturally occurring mineral of biological and agricultural importance. Human and animal bones are composed of hydroxyapatite.
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite that shows good biocompatibility and is an excellent candidate for bone repair and substitution.
