Calcium carbonate creates an alkaline medium for the teeth to be cleaned by virtue of its basic nature. it comes with sodium mono fluoro phosphate which has germicidal effect. abrasive nature is of fluoride ion which when in excess may cause holes in our teeth. Sodium hydrogencarbonate fulfills the same role as calcium carbonate.
