White Spot Lesions

Tooth Sensitivity; white spot caries, orthodontic decalcification, tooth sensitivity after whitening are all tooth problems. Ask your Riverhill dentist about MI Paste.

If you are experiencing tooth sensitivity immediately following tooth whitening, or after you have had your teeth cleaned and polished, we have a solution for you. 

If you suffer from dry mouth, 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, Riverhill Dental has a solution for you.

If you are pregnant or have any conditions that cause your mouths’ acid levels to be higher than normal such as acid reflux and other disorders which often appear as erosion in the mouth, ask us.

Riverhill dentists use a product that brings a rapid desensitizing effect through rapid protein binding deposition of calcium and phosphate ions within the exposed tubules of your teeth. The whitening process removes proteins and moisture from the teeth in the same way that shampooing strips your hair of essential oils and nutrients. Just as you put conditioner on your hair to restore its vitality, you need to replenish minerals and nutrients in your teeth after whitening. 

Fixed or removable orthodontic appliances are plaque traps because the caries-bacteria like living on hard non-shedding surfaces. Regular use of this paste prevents plaque accumulation around brackets and assists the saliva in buffering acids produced by dental plaque.
