Tooth Mousse is a product from GC America that was introduced a few years ago. It is derived from milk protein, and it helps remineralize “white spot” lesions to help keep them from turning into cavities.
To the left are photographs taken of white and brown fluorosis spots on the teeth. Fluorosis is caused by too much fluoride in the diet of a child while the teeth are developing. The spotting was treated with GC’s Tooth Mousse and microabrasion.
You can read more about microabrasion on another page in this web site.
