GC TOOTH MOUSSE

GC TOOTH MOUSSE

•  GC Tooth Mousse is a topical tooth crème that helps remineralise teeth. It contains RECALDENT™ (CPP-ACP -Casein- Phosphopeptide-Amorphous-Calcium-Phosphate), a special milk-derived protein that  helps to  replace lost minerals in the teeth and protecting  them from decay and erosion. This technology has a unique ability to deliver bio-available calcium and phosphate when the patient’s saliva is acidically-challenged by the normal digestive process.
• When CPP-ACP is applied in the oral environment, it will bind to biofilms, plaque, bacteria, hydroxyapatite and soft tissue localising bio-available calcium and phosphate.

 

 

ADVANTAGES:

When Gc Tooth Mousse is applied to tooth surfaces, the CPP-ACP molecule binds to biofilm, plaque, bacteria, hydroxyapatite and surrounding soft tissue.

• Delivers Recaldent™ Casein Phosphopeptide - Amorphous Calcium Phosphate
• Inhibits enamel demineralisation and induces remineralisation
• Reduces hypersensitivity by obturating open dentinal tubules
• Prevents initial caries forming thanks to the anti-cariogenic properties
• Reverses white spot lesions
• The delicious flavours stimulate saliva flow for an enhanced effectiveness of CPP-ACP

 

INDICATIONS:

• To provide extra protection for teeth
• After tooth whitening
• For desensitizing
• During and/or after orthodontics
• For medically compromised patients
• For salivary deficiency; dry mouth
• For patients with acidic, oral environments
• For erosion and gastric reflex
• For patients with poor plaque control
• For high-caries risk patients

Direction for use:

 

• The creme is applied to tooth surfaces once or twice a day (depending on the dentist prescription) and left for 3 minutes.
• The tongue is then used to spread the applied creme throughout the mouth and held for a further 1-2 minutes.
• The longer GC Tooth Mousse and saliva are maintained in the mouth, the more effective the result.
• The patient expectorates and if possible avoids rinsing. Any creme remaining on the surface can be left to gradually dissipate.
• Patient is advised not to eat or drink 30 minutes following application.

 

IN-OFFICE APPLICATION:

 

I. Custom tray application:

1.Before use rinse the custom tray thoroughly under running water

2.Extrude a generous layer of GC Tooth Mousse into the tray and apply to the upper and / or lower teeth

3.Leave the tray undisturbed in the mouth for a minimum of 3 minutes

4.Remove the tray

5.Instruct the patient to use the tongue to spread the remaining GC Tooth Mousse throughout the mouth. Instruct the patient to retain for as long as possible (1 - 2 minutes) avoiding expectoration and delaying swallowing. The longer GC Tooth Mousse and saliva are maintained in the mouth, the more effective the result

6.Ask the patient to expectorate and if possible avoid rinsing. Any GC Tooth Mousse remaining on the surface can be left to gradually dissipate. Advise the patient not to eat or drink for 30 minutes following application

7.Any residual GC Tooth Mousse in the tray should be rinsed or brushed off under running water immediately after use

 

II. Non tray application:

1. If necessary, remove any excess saliva on the tooth surface with a cotton roll or pellet. However, it is NOT necessary to dry the teeth with compressed air

2. Apply a sufficient amount of GC Tooth Mousse to the tooth surfaces using an application swab, gloved finger or in difficult interproximal areas using an Interproximal Tooth Cleaning Brush

3. Leave GC Tooth Mousse undisturbed for a minimum of 3 minutes

4. Then instruct the patient to use the tongue to spread the remaining GC Tooth Mousse throughout the mouth. Request the patient to hold in the mouth for as long as possible (an additional 1 - 2 minutes) avoiding expectoration and delaying swallowing. The longer GC Tooth Mousse and saliva are maintained in the mouth, the more effective the result

5. Ask the patient to expectorate and if possible avoid rinsing. Any GC Tooth Mousse remaining on the surface can be left to gradually dissipate. Advise the patient not to eat or drink for 30 minutes following application.

 

AT HOME APPLICATION:

 

III. Day time application after tooth brushing as recommended by a dental professional

1. Apply a sufficient amount of GC Tooth Mousse to upper and lower teeth. A pea size amount for each arch is the minimum required. The material should be applied to the tooth surfaces using a clean dry finger or cotton tip. For difficult areas (between the teeth) use an Interproximal Tooth Cleaning Brush or dental floss coated with GC Tooth Mousse

2. Leave GC Tooth Mousse on the teeth undisturbed for a minimum of 3 minutes

3. Then use your tongue to spread the remaining GC Tooth Mousse throughout the mouth. Hold in the mouth for as long as possible (a further 1 - 2 minutes) avoiding expectoration (spitting out) and delaying swallowing. The longer GC Tooth Mousse and saliva are maintained in the mouth, the more effective the result

4. Expectorate thoroughly and if possible avoid rinsing. Any GC Tooth Mousse remaining on the surface can be left to gradually dissipate. Do not eat or drink for 30 minutes following application

 

IV. Night time application after tooth brushing as recommended by a dental professional

1. Apply a sufficient amount of GC Tooth Mousse to upper and lower teeth. A pea size amount for each arch is the minimum required. The material should be applied to the tooth surfaces using a clean dry finger or cotton tip. For difficult areas (between the teeth) use an Interproximal Tooth Cleaning Brush or dental floss coated with GC Tooth Mousse

2. Leave GC Tooth Mousse on the teeth undisturbed for a minimum of 3 minutes

3. Then use your tongue to spread the remaining GC Tooth Mousse throughout the mouth. Hold in the mouth for as long as possible (a further 1 - 2 minutes) avoiding expectoration (spitting out) and delaying swallowing. The longer GC Tooth Mousse and saliva are maintained in the mouth, the more effective the result

4. Expectorate thoroughly and if possible avoid rinsing. Any GC Tooth Mousse remaining on the surface can be left to gradually dissipate overnight. Do not eat or drink for 30 minutes following application.
