Tooth Mousse: Calcium Cream to Prevent Decay & Tooth Sensitivity

Written by Dr. Asha K. Karan | Apr 7, 2020 2:34:00 AM

What is Tooth Mousse?

Tooth Mousse is a cream containing calcium (Recaldent or CPP-ACP). It is derived from a completely safe, milk protein.

Tooth Mousse can be used daily at home to…

  • help reverse early decay
  • prevent further tooth decay.
  • strengthen and make the tooth healthy
  • help make the saliva healthy
  • treat sensitivity

Tooth Mousse can also be used by people who have dry mouth or poor saliva. 

Saliva has many functions. Saliva helps to:

  • clean the mouth
  • buffer acid
  • protect against demineralisation
  • promote remineralisation
  • lubricate the mouth

Insufficient or poor quality saliva may lead to:

  • increased wear of teeth
  • increased Erosion
  • increased Sensitivity
  • increased Tooth decay

If you suffer from any of the above, Tooth Mousse may help you, and not just with tooth sensitivity. Tooth Mousse is now available at Nuffield Dental.
