Uses for Tooth Mousse and Tooth Mousse Plus
Do you have tooth sensitivity, due to cracks, bleaching, worn enamel or exposed root surfaces. GC Tooth Mousse soothes sensitivity in just minutes. It delivers calcium and phosphate to provide a protective covering for dental nerve endings. It helps to remineralise your teeth and restore a health oral mineral balance. Buffering plaque acid as it reduces sensitivity.
Soft drinks might taste good, but their acid levels can cause tooth erosion - leaving a bad taste in your mouth. In fact, there are numerous causes of harmful high oral acids, including; Poor oral hygiene, Drinking excessive soft drinks, sports drinks and alcoholic beverages, Pregnancy, and Gastric reflux. GC tooth Mousse binds tooth-replenishing calcium and phosphate to teeth. It can strengthen enamel, and improve saliva flow and fluoride uptake.
Straightening your teeth with braces builds a beautiful smile, but braces can also trap food and build plaque that leads to white spots forming on your teeth. GC Tooth Mousse prevents white spot lesions from occurring. It also buffers acids produced by bacteria and plaque. It strengthens enamel making it more resistant to white spot lesions. And after you remove your braces, GC Tooth Mousse will remineralise white spots, optimise the tooth enamel's appearance, and increase the reflectivity of the enamel surface.
Saliva is your body's natural oral defence system, delivering important minerals to your teeth to keep them strong and healthy, but many factors can limit or reduce your ability to produce saliva, including aging, reactions to medications, disease, chemotherapy, stress. Without saliva, you can suffer a mineral imbalance that leads to increased risk of tooth disease. GC Tooth Mousse delivers calcium and phosphate when and where they are needed most. It binds minerals to tooth surfaces, plaque and soft tissue. It corrects the mineral balance and improves saliva flow and fluoride uptake. It relieves dry mouth.

Recaldent Tooth Mousse Plus
This stronger Mousse is recommended at night when a patient has marked salivary dysfunction (dry mouth), for example, because of medications, systemic illnesses, or salivary gland disease, because of enhanced risk of mineral loss from dental caries or erosion of teeth. These patients would also benefit from daytime applications of GC Dry Mouth Gel to gain symptomatic relief for oral dryness. Patients should be at least six years of age before using Tooth Mousse Plus.
Under this age children should only use the Original Tooth Mousse because of fluoride ingestion. The unique CPP-ACP (amorphous calcium phosphate and fluoride) complexes in Tooth Mousse Plus were developed at the University of Melbourne Scholl of Dental Science.
What About Pregnant Mothers. There are no proven dental or general health benefits or risks from pre-natal fluoride containing products. Fluoride supplements are not indicated in pregnancy, however Tooth Mousse Plus can be used as a topical treatment in high caries risk pregnant women or in situations where reflux is causing dental erosion and dentinal hypersensitivity.
How to Apply It. Just like Tooth Mousse, Tooth Mousse Plus is applied topically to at-risk surfaces. This can be done by first cleaning the teeth and then smearing a small amount of Tooth Mousse Plus across the tooth surfaces with a clean finger or cotton-tipped applicator.
