What is MI Paste
and how does it
work?
PROSPECTM MI Paste contains
RECALDENTTM (CPP-ACP)
which is made from a natural
protein extracted from milk.
RECALDENTTM (CPP-ACP) acts
in a dual manner, by providing a source of calcium
and phosphate, while also supplying a soluble format
for delivery of these essential minerals to the tooth
surface. MI Paste comes in individual 40g tubes in five
delicious flavors.
MI Paste could be helpful
• If you are experiencing tooth sensitivity
• Immediately following bleaching for tooth
whitening
• After your teeth have been cleaned and
polished
• If you suffer from dry mouth, which could be a
side effect of prescription or non prescription
medicines.
• If you are susceptible to dehydration from
sporting activities or outdoor work
• If you currently have orthodontic bands or
brackets or have just had them removed
• If you are pregnant and your mouth acid levels
are higher than normal
How to use it
MI Paste can be applied into a pre-formed tray
and placed in the mouth. Alternatively squeeze a
small amount of MI Paste from the tube onto your
finger and apply it over the surfaces of the teeth
as advised by your dentist. If you are in the middle
of orthodontic treatment, apply MI Paste around
the areas where the bands and brackets are
attached to the teeth.
How often should
I use it?
Do I need to continue using
MI Paste after whitening?
You should discuss this
with your dentist. In most
situations you will apply it
after brushing your teeth,
both morning and night.
If starting tooth whitening you will be advised to
apply MI Paste immediately following each
whitening session. When undergoing orthodontic
treatment you may be advised to apply MI Paste
twice daily for the entire time the bands or
brackets are attached to your teeth. If you
regularly suffer from dry mouth you may need to
use MI Paste more often. Please discuss this with
your dentist.
The teeth may look or feel dry immediately after
whitening. Sometimes they will also feel sensitive,
so we recommend you continue the daily MI Paste
application for a week after the final whitening
procedure, to add minerals to your teeth, to
complement the new whiter look and to give them
that beautiful vital appearance.
The smile says it all
These days more and more people are whitening
their teeth, either as a one step procedure at their
dentist or under supervision at home.
Whichever method is used, the whitening process
removes proteins and moisture from the teeth - in
the same way as shampooing strips your hair of
essential oils and nutrients.
So, just as you put conditioner on your hair to
restore its vitality, you need to replenish minerals
and nutrients in your teeth after whitening.
Fortunately, there is now a product that does just
this. PROSPECTM MI Paste has been specially
formulated to nourish teeth before and after the
whitening process, thereby helping to achieve
greater vitality and more estheticallly pleasing
appearance. If you want to obtain the best results
after whitening, then MI Paste is an important
consideration.
Whitening in the dental office
If you plan to have the whitening carried out in
the dental office the procedure can often be
completed in just one hour. Your dentist may
recommend a daily application of MI Paste before
whitening. In this case, make sure you do not
apply it on the day of your appointment.
After the whitening procedure you will be asked
to apply MI Paste over the whitened surface and
continue a once or twice daily application for one
week.
What about at home?
Home whitening is not as concentrated as in the
dental office, so after each whitening procedure
apply MI Paste over the same area as the
whitening gel was placed and leave undisturbed
for 3 minutes. Then either wash off or leave to
slowly dissipate.
Be sure to follow the instructions as set out by the
manufacturer of the whitening gel before applying
MI Paste. Once the whitening
treatment has been fully
completed, continue a daily
application of MI Paste for
another seven days.
About RECALDENT TM (CPP-ACP)
Is MI Paste safe to swallow?
Yes. The main active ingredient of MI Paste is
derived from milk casein and like milk and cheese,
is safe. Products containing RECALDENTTM (CPPACP) should not be consumed by people with milk
protein allergies. RECALDENTTM (CPP-ACP) is
digestible by people with lactose intolerance.
Do I need to wash it off?
This is a matter of preference. For the maximum
benefit, leave it on the teeth as long as possible.
The minimum recommended application time is
three minutes. You can then rinse or simply wipe
any remaining cream from the teeth.
Does MI Paste contain fluoride?
No. However if your dentist recommends that you
need an additional fluoride treatment program, you
can safely use both MI Paste and fluoride products
at the same time.
PROSPEC™ MI Paste contains RECALDENT™
(CPP-ACP) This technology has a unique
ability to deliver bio-available calcium and
phosphate when they are needed most.
PROSPEC MI Paste binds calcium and
phosphate to tooth surfaces, plaque and
surrounding soft tissue. The RECALDENTTM
