Tooth Mousse: Calcium Cream to Prevent Decay & Tooth Sensitivity
Written by
Dr. Asha K. Karan
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.
