Tricalcium Phosphate
Tricalcium Phosphate (TCP) is a calcium salt of phosphoric acid, providing a highly bioavailable source of both calcium and phosphorus.
What is it used for?
It is used to support the structural integrity of teeth and bones. In oral health, it provides the essential building blocks needed for enamel remineralization.
What does available evidence suggest?
Studies show that TCP, especially when combined with fluoride or other remineralizing agents, can effectively penetrate the enamel surface and help supports early signs of tooth decay (white spot lesions).
Safety considerations
FDA approved and generally recognized as safe (GRAS). It is a common additive in foods and supplements.
