GC Tooth Mousse (often available as GC Tooth Mousse Plus when it contains fluoride) with a Mint flavor is a water-based, topical crème designed to strengthen and protect tooth enamel.

Key Features & Ingredients

RECALDENT (CPP-ACP): The core active ingredient stands for Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate. It is a special milk-derived protein derivative that carries and delivers bioavailable calcium and phosphate directly to your teeth in a soluble form.

Fluoride Content (Plus Version): The "Plus" variant in Mint flavor typically contains 900 ppm sodium fluoride (0.20% w/w), which provides an extra boost of cavity protection alongside remineralization. (Note: Standard Tooth Mousse is fluoride-free, whereas Tooth Mousse Plus includes it).

Mint Flavor: Offers a refreshing, cool mint taste that leaves the mouth feeling clean.

Primary Benefits

Remineralization: Replenishes lost essential minerals (calcium and phosphate) back into weakened tooth enamel.

Acid Neutralization: Buffers and neutralizes acids produced by plaque bacteria, as well as acids introduced by dietary choices (such as soft drinks, citrus fruits, or coffee) and acid reflux.

Sensitivity Relief: Helps manage and reduce tooth sensitivity (such as post-whitening sensitivity or general enamel wear).

Orthodontic Care: Highly recommended for patients undergoing orthodontic treatments (braces or clear aligners) where plaque removal is more difficult.

Important Considerations & Usage Warning

Allergy Warning: Because the active RECALDENT protein is derived from cow's milk, this product must not be used by anyone with a proven or suspected allergy to milk proteins or casein. It also contains benzoate preservatives and soybean products.

Application: Typically applied after brushing using a clean finger, cotton swab, or a custom dental tray, leaving it to sit undisturbed on the teeth for a few minutes so the minerals can absorb.

Always follow the specific instructions provided by your dental professional regarding application frequency and age suitability.
