FAQs About Mi Paste and MI Paste Plus

• What is Mi Paste?

  MI Paste® is a professional dental product designed to help remineralize and protect teeth.

• What Does MI Paste Do?

  Replenishes enamel: Provides calcium and phosphate to restore minerals lost from tooth enamel due to decay, erosion, or acid attacks. Reduces tooth sensitivity: Helps soothe sensitive teeth by remineralizing areas where enamel is thin or demineralized.
