Today we would like to highlight the potential of Tooth Mousse for patients with salivary dysfunction (dry mouth). Linked to their medical conditions or their medications, these patients can undergo a rapid increase in the risk of both coronal and root surface caries. By elevating levels of calcium in saliva and dental plaque, GC Tooth Mousse can reduce the harmful effects of plaque-derived acids and drive remineralization.

In cases where the lesions are poorly defined, the use of GC Tooth Mousse can provide a useful improvement in the patient's appearance following a very conservative treatment approach. In many cases of mild fluorosis, a single treatment sequence of etching / microabrasion followed by GC Tooth Mousse can achieve the desired result. Patients should be instructed that the visual effect occurs through a slow chemical reaction, and thus should expect to see changes over several weeks rather than instantly.
