GC Tooth Mousse

GC Tooth Mousse provides multiple mechanisms to strengthen, protect and relieve the pain of sensitive teeth by promoting remineralization, closing the dentinal tubules and protecting the enamel from further damage.

The advantages of GC Tooth Mouse

1. Remineralization of tooth enamel

• Calcium and phosphate in GC Tooth Mousse promote the remineralization of tooth enamel, which is especially important for sensitive teeth.

• Acid erosion and enamel loss can cause sensitivity because enamel protects the dentin layer, which contains pain-sensitive nerves.

• GC Tooth Mousse helps strengthen tooth enamel and make it more resistant to acid attacks, reducing sensitivity.

2. Closure of dentinal tubules

• Sensitive teeth are often caused by exposed dentinal tubules , which transmit stimuli such as heat, cold and sweets directly to the nerves in the tooth.

• GC Tooth Mousse helps to close these canals, which results in a reduction in sensitivity.

3. Protection against acid attacks

• People with sensitive teeth are often at higher risk of tooth erosion from acidic foods or drinks.

• GC Tooth Mousse forms a protective layer on the teeth that helps protect the teeth from further acid attacks.

4. Neutralization of the oral pH value

• A balanced pH level in the mouth is important to prevent tooth damage and sensitivity.

• The product helps regulate the pH level in the mouth, thereby inhibiting the growth of acid-producing bacteria and reducing sensitivity.

5. Pain relief for sensitivity

• Through rapid remineralization and closure of the dentinal tubules, GC Tooth Mousse can provide noticeable pain relief with daily use.

• Especially after dental treatments such as bleaching or teeth cleaning , where sensitivity often increases temporarily, GC Tooth Mousse can help to relieve these symptoms.

6. Prevention of further sensitivity

• Regular use of GC Tooth Mousse not only reduces existing sensitivity, but also helps prevent future problems through improved protection against erosion and demineralization.

7. Promoting oral health

• GC Tooth Mousse helps reduce plaque because remineralized teeth are more resistant to bacterial attacks that can lead to tooth decay and gum disease.

• An improved condition of the tooth structure thus promotes general oral health and reduces the risk of inflammation-related sensitivity .

GC Tooth Mousse is a tooth enamel strengthening preparation based on Recaldent™ (CPP-ACP) , a combination of casein phosphopeptide and amorphous calcium phosphate. It is used for the remineralization and care of teeth, especially in patients with sensitive teeth or exposed tooth necks.

Mode of action for sensitive teeth and exposed tooth necks

• Calcium and phosphate release: The CPP-ACP in GC Tooth Mousse binds calcium and phosphate ions to the tooth surface in a stable form. These ions promote the remineralization of tooth enamel and help relieve the hypersensitivity often caused by enamel loss or exposed dentin.

• Reduction of dentin canals: If the tooth necks are exposed, GC Tooth Mousse can help close the dentin canals. These open canals are often responsible for sensitivity to temperature, sweetness or acid. The preparation can prevent irritants from entering and thus form a protective layer over the sensitive dentin.

• Neutralizing acids: It also has a pH neutralizing effect that reduces the effect of acidic foods and drinks on tooth enamel, which can also help relieve sensitivity.

• GC Tooth Mousse should be applied to the teeth after brushing with a clean finger or a soft brush.

• It is recommended to apply the preparation in the evening before going to bed and not to eat or drink immediately afterwards to achieve the maximum effect.

• In case of sensitive teeth or exposed tooth necks, the product should be used regularly to support sustainable remineralization.

Study results on the effectiveness of GC Tooth Mousse

There are several clinical studies that have investigated the effectiveness of GC Tooth Mousse in treating sensitive teeth and exposed tooth necks:

• Reduction of tooth sensitivity: A study by Gupta et al. (2011) investigated the efficacy of CPP-ACP in patients with hypersensitivity and showed a significant reduction in pain sensitivity after the application of GC Tooth Mousse. Patients reported a significant improvement after several weeks of use, which is attributed to the protective effect of remineralization and closure of dentin tubules.

• Remineralization of tooth enamel: A study published in Caries Research (2014) demonstrated that CPP-ACP-containing products such as GC Tooth Mousse can cause demonstrable remineralization of tooth enamel, especially in early stages of demineralization. This is important for the prevention and treatment of sensitive teeth, as a strengthened enamel surface is less susceptible to harmful influences.

• Long-term studies: Long-term studies such as those by Bailey et al. (2009) show that regular use of GC Tooth Mousse over several months leads to a sustained reduction in tooth sensitivity. The study suggested that the product's effect on sensitive teeth lasts longer if it is used regularly after brushing.

• Comparison with other products: In a comparison with fluoride varnishes or similar dental care products, GC Tooth Mousse showed comparable or, in some cases, even better effectiveness. This was observed especially in patients suffering from acid-induced tooth erosion or hypersensitivity due to exposed tooth necks.
