No. The titanium dioxide we use in our toothpastes has been proven safe by health experts around the world. It is used in our toothpastes as a white colourant, in a non-nano form as defined by European regulations. It is an approved colourant in cosmetics, and we comply with all the regulations applicable to it.
It is suitable as an alternative to titanium dioxide when higher acid resistance is required, such as in adhesive joints and sealants.
Asia-Pacific accounted for the largest revenue share in 2019. China and India are the key markets in the region that have a growing paint and plastics industry, owing to rise in urbanization and industrial developments such as in automotive and construction domains.
However, it’s also important to note that such adverse effects depend heavily on the form of the titanium dioxide. It can come down to characteristics like “particle shape, purity, surface charge, solubility, agglomeration rate, photo-activation, etc.”
CAS NO. :
Specification
Lithopone 30% is a perfect alternative to titanium dioxide in all natural and synthetic pigmented elastomers, as it is non-abrasive and extremely acid resistant.
Titanium dioxide is the most widely used whitening pigment in the world and has been linked to adverse health effects, particularly genotoxicity and intestinal inflammation. It is applied as food coloring and a whitening agent to a wide variety of foods, including chewing gum, cakes, candies, breads and ice cream.
The additive goes into a lot of personal care products to whiten and brighten colors and to make them opaque, like toothpaste and makeup.
The Market Dynamics of Wholesale Titanium Dioxide
In the paper industry, art painting supplies level, use as a white opaque pigment for a variety of printing paper filler, white pigment for pencils, watercolors, art painting.
Although the evidence for general toxic effects was not conclusive, on the basis of the new data and strengthened methods we could not rule out a concern for genotoxicity and consequently we could not establish a safe level for daily intake of the food additive, commented Matthew Wright, member of the EFSA's Food Additives and Flavourings Panel in a press statement.

It's also worth noting that even prior to the EU decision, France had already outlawed titanium dioxide in food back in January 2020.
CSPI says it might reconsider its rating if specifications for food-grade titanium dioxide in the U.S. are updated to ensure nanoparticles are minimized, and new studies are conducted to assess its capacity to cause cancer or other health problems.
