Through dentists, technicians, hygienists and other dental professionals around the world,
GC's quality dental care products make a major contribution to patient health.
As a dental product manufacturer of global standing, GC Corporation constantly seeks to
produce
original products that are environmentally friendly as well as patient friendly,
while at the same time taking great care to minimize the impact of manufacturing
processes
on the environment.
Producing products that are people friendly and earth friendly, we will continue to
create highly value-added products so as to provide oral health to the people of the
world
during the 21st century, a century we regard as the century of health.
Since its establishment in 1921, GC has constantly sought to make a contribution to dental care.
This is based on its corporate philosophy of Semui and the three management principles
of
Contributing to the environment and society by improving oral hygiene, Improving corporate
quality and meeting customer expectations, and Forming a team of associates brimming with energy and respect.
The world is undergoing a process of rapid transformation towards an increasingly
borderless
global community that is attaching greater importance to health and a clean
environment.
Japan too is witnessing a change towards a completely new social structure with the advent
of a society,
which is a commingling of the digital network society, and one based on a falling birth
rate and
super-aging.
In response to these trends, GC advocates and practices what it calls GC's Quality
Management,
or GQM for short. Based on a clear vision, the optimal siting of operations from a global
perspective,
world-beating production methods, close contact with users, use of information
technology,
and of course people, GQM offers a way by which each Associate can exercise his or her
skills and
foresight in a particular field to provide products, information and services highly
valued by customers.
Our aim is to continue to develop and make breakthroughs as a global yet distinctive dental
care company, ensuring that the 21st century is truly the century of health.

MI Paste Plus™
[Show Details]
Product Details:
MI Paste Plus™ offers the same great benefits of regular MI Paste™, enhanced with 0.2% sodium fluoride (900ppm) to further promote remineralization and protect teeth from caries development. Because the fluoride acts in conjunction with RECALDENT™ (CPP-ACP) ingredient, it is more effective than fluoride alone. Specially designed for patients at high risk for dental caries and dental erosion, MI Paste Plus™ enhances mineral uptake without encouraging the formation of calculus. MI Paste Plus™ is safe and easy to use both in office and at home, and can even be claimed on a patient’s insurance as fluoride treatment. It is also recommended for night use in patients with marked salivary dysfunction (dry mouth) due to medications, systemic illnesses, or salivary gland disease, because of the enhanced risk of mineral loss from dental caries or dental erosion.
Use MI Paste Plus™ - After tooth whitening
- For white spot lesions
- For desensitizing
- During and/or after orthodontics
- For medically compromised patients
- For salivary deficiency/dry mouth
- For patients with acidic oral environments
- For erosion and gastric reflex
- For patients with poor plaque control
- For high-caries risk patients
- To provide extra protection for teeth
There are over 140 studies substantiate the benefits of RECALDENT™. • For more information, please visit GC America’s professional website (www.gcamerica.com) and the consumer website (www.mi-paste.com).
