Calcium supplement needed. Please help

Dear Professor Hale
I am still breastfeeding my 18 month old infant.
She is allergic to dairy so her and I have no dairy in our diet.
The dentist advised me that I need to go on a calcium supplement as small pieces of my teeth are falling off and she says it's possibly from breastfeeding and a lack of calcium. ( Also from having no dairy). The details of the supplement that she suggested I take is below. NRF Seleni Vite calcium. Please advise if I can take it or should I try something else. Or just not take a supplement rather?
Thanks. Nikita

Per 1½ heaped 5 ml medicine measures contain:
