Tooth Mousse, the first product for professional use to contain this complex of CPP-ACP (Recaldent™), is the ideal delivery system for bio-available calcium and phosphate ions.
Tooth Mousse Plus in addition contains a unique, patented form of fluoride. Tooth Mousse Plus releases all three of the ions needed to form acid-resistant fluorapatite by BOTH remineralisation and fluoridation. Recaldent™ is derived from the milk protein, casein. For many years it has been known that milk and its derivatives have a tooth protective effect. Research has shown that this activity is due to a part of the casein protein called Casein Phosphopeptide (or CPP), which carries calcium and phosphate ions in the form of Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (or ACP).
CPP-ACP was developed at the School of Dental Science at the University of Melbourne Victoria/ Australia. Recaldent™ is a trade mark used under license. Recaldent™ (CPP-ACP) is derived from milk casein.
Do not use on patients with a milk protein and/ or hydroxybenzoates allergy.
