Remineralizing gel GC Tooth Mousse is an effective solution to many dental problems in adults and children. Tus Mousse helps to get rid of the increased sensitivity of tooth enamel, as well as unflattering white spots - the first harbingers of caries.
Tooth Mousse is approved for use by children (treatment of baby and permanent teeth), pregnant and lactating women, the elderly and adults
. The product quickly reduces sensitivity to hot and cold by 97%.
Why are dental remineralizing agents needed?
When increased sensitivity of the enamel appears, teeth begin to react sharply to temperature, acid and mechanical factors. In such cases, a diagnosis of hyperesthesia is usually made. But this phenomenon is quite common, usually associated with demineralization of the enamel layer, that is, a lack of necessary microelements. The protective layer of teeth weakens and becomes too susceptible to external influences; over time, it may darken and begin to crumble.
The drug is used for tooth sensitivity
The reason may be hormonal changes during pregnancy, some kind of systemic disease, insufficient oral hygiene or aggressive influence, for example, this is often observed after professional whitening and bite correction with braces. Remineralizing agents are designed to replenish the mineral composition of the enamel, strengthen it and provide reliable protection against thinning and destruction. One such product is Tooth Mousse dental gel.
Composition and principle of action - advantages of the drug
"Tus Mus" is a water-based paste. It contains phosphates and calcium, which are fully absorbed by the enamel. The active components neutralize increased acidity in the oral cavity, that is, they normalize the acid-base balance and block the activity of pathogenic microorganisms in plaque, thereby protecting dental tissues from destruction1. Today, the market for hygiene products offers a wide variety of all kinds of pastes, gels and mousses with a remineralizing effect. But Tooth Mousse has a number of obvious advantages, and here are the main ones:
- normalization of pH levels in the oral cavity,
- the ability to choose a pleasant flavor shade,
- no age restrictions - the drug is suitable for children, adults and the elderly,
- availability for use during pregnancy and lactation,
- pronounced remineralizing and strengthening properties,
- absence of discomfort and unpleasant sensations during use,
- absolute safety even in case of accidental ingestion of a small amount of the product,
- ensuring comprehensive prevention of dental diseases,
- prevention of caries and erosive damage to enamel,
- the admissibility of the simultaneous use of fluorine-containing formulations due to the absence of fluorides in the composition.
The active ingredients neutralize increased acidity in the oral cavity.
It is important to understand that Tus Mus gel cannot be a complete replacement for toothpaste. Its use must be combined with standard daily brushing of teeth in the morning and evening.

How to use the gel correctly - instructions
According to the instructions for use, the mousse should be applied daily, every time after meals. It is better to use it at least three times a day, always in the morning and before bed. Before using the product, you should brush your teeth with a brush and toothpaste. As for how exactly to use gels, there are two options – let’s look at each in more detail.
Applications using a mouthguard
The first method involves the use of an individual mouth guard - its production can be ordered at a dental clinic. The scheme for using the product is as follows:
- First you need to brush your teeth and rinse your mouth. The mouth guard also needs to be rinsed under running water.
- a small amount of mousse should be squeezed inside the mouth guard so that the composition fills all its insides,
- after this, the mouthguard must be put on the dentition and left there for literally 2-3 minutes,
- After this time, the lining can be removed, and the remaining gel on the gums can be distributed over the surface of the teeth. After this, you need to keep your mouth open for a few more minutes. Saliva should not be spit or swallowed,
- At the end of the procedure, you can spit out the saliva, but you should not rinse your mouth. You will have to give up food and drink for half an hour.
The product can be applied to the mouth guard.
After removing the mouth guard, it should be thoroughly rinsed in water and dried. As mentioned above, it is recommended to repeat the procedure 3 times a day.
Direct application method
The second method involves applying the gel without the help of outside agents. The procedure is performed according to the following scheme:
- teeth should be brushed and lightly dried with a clean napkin,
- Squeeze out a small ball of paste from the tube and spread it over the teeth with a clean, dry finger or cotton swab. To treat hard-to-reach places, you can use a brush,
- Then you need to keep your mouth slightly open for about 2-3 minutes.
With this method, the drug is applied with clean, dry fingers.
As in the previous case, after the procedure it is enough to simply spit. But you should not eat, drink, brush your teeth or rinse your mouth for another half hour, otherwise this will negatively affect the therapeutic properties of the drug. At the same time, the children's version of using the product is absolutely identical to the instructions described above.
How to use mousse correctly
According to the instructions, you need to use the mousse after each brushing of your teeth. Ideally – 3 times a day after meals, including brushing your teeth before bed.
GC Tooth Mousse cream - instructions for use with an individual mouthguard at home:
- It is permissible to use only an individual mouthguard. You need to rinse it with running water.
- You need to brush your teeth to remove food debris and plaque. You can also use mouthwash and dental floss.
- It is necessary to squeeze out a sufficient amount of mousse into the mouthguard so that its entire inner surface is covered with the drug.
- Install a mouthguard on the upper/lower or both rows of teeth.

- Distribute the Tooth Mousse remaining on the enamel over the surface of the teeth and gums using your tongue. It is advisable to keep your mouth slightly open.
