business22 AEEDC Dubai 2015 AD Recaldent, also known as casein phosphopeptide-amor- phous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP), is now available for MI Varnish from GC. A milk-de- rived protein, the product ef- fectively remineralises tooth surfaces through bioavailable calcium and phosphate ions. This process is intended to of- fer general prevention for all ages, much-needed prevention for high caries risk patient groups under orthodontic treatment, as well as for pa- tients in paedodontic or geri- atric dentistry. According to the company, MI Varnish is currently the only varnish in the market that contains CPP-ACP. Evidence supports that addition of a bioavailable calcium source enhances the efficacy of the product, offering extra protec- tiontopatientsofallagegroups and caries profiles to effec- tively relieve dentine hyper- sensitivity. Owing to its texture and con- sistency, MI Varnish adheres effectively to the applicator brush and flows easily into dif- ficult-to-reach proximal areas, while covering all tooth sur- faces evenly and effectively. According to GC, it penetrates dentinal tubules effectively to form a good seal, while its neu- tral pH of 6.6 enhances enamel acid resistance and inhibits demineralisation. MI Varnish is claimed not to clump or coag- ulate when exposed to saliva, providingacreamytextureand comfortable film thickness even when multiple layers are applied. Applied in minutes, MI Var- nishrequiresnopreparationor prophylaxis, the manufacturer said. It has a neutral shade, cre- ating an almost invisible coat- ing. MI Varnish is available in mint and strawberry flavours and comes in unit-dose contain- ers that are easy to open and contain enough material for a full-mouth application.
