Liquid calcium
The Daily Mail has an article from last year extolling the virtues of liquid calcium for cleaning one’s teeth.
“The liquid calcium is the key. It uses the minerals naturally present in teeth to help the body mend itself, coating the teeth in a natural substance similar to enamel.”
Calcium is an alkaline earth metal that reacts with the oxygen in the air and with water. I would not recommend putting it near your mouth in its un-ionised form. I would certainly not recommend putting liquid calcium anywhere near your mouth or any other part of your body; it melts at 842°C.
Note to Arm & Hammer and the Daily Mail: a liquid is not the same as a solution.

Well, someone will develop a version of it sooner or later, which can be used.
