False.

You continue to need calcium after your permanent teeth come in. Calcium (with phosphate and vitamin D) helps maintain tooth enamel and dentin, supports the jaw bone that holds teeth, and is important for ongoing remineralization and repair. Inadequate calcium can contribute to weakened teeth and bone loss over time.
