Tooth decay is a preventable disease that requires knowledge of all the factors contributing to its formation.

We are told to eat and drink healthy, exercise, get proper rest and take care of our bodies. Well the same can be applied to taking care of our oral health and today I want to discuss a very helpful adjunct to fighting tooth decay.

The active ingredient in Tooth Mousse is “casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate” or CPP-ACP. CPP-ACP is a unique, naturally derived protein-based remineralizing product available in chewing gum and in the cream called Tooth Mousse. 

Not only does Tooth Mousse help with preventing decay but it is also used to reverse the visible white spot carious lesions seen when a tooth decalcifies. It is also extremely effective in treating dentinal hypersensitivity too.

So not only is it necessary to brush at least twice a day and floss daily too, watch our diet (frequency of intake and consistency of foods), and to drink plenty of water, it is a well know fact that tooth mousse applied after meals greatly reduces the chance of making cavities.

There is a product called Tooth Mousse Plus which contains fluoride as well. So if you want the added protection this is one step better. Now I know that there is some controversy about fluoride and so those people who don’t want fluoride, can have the reassurance that Tooth Mousse is very safe as it is derived milk caseins.

So if you want to prevent cavities, talk to us about Tooth Mousse !
